We are industry advocates for the adoption and use of Smart Data – transport & mobility customer account data that is shared with permissions – and believe that a truly interoperable transport ecosystem is only possible if a customer’s mobility data is portable too.
We therefore believe that the following key principles should underpin any data sharing framework:
- Customers have full control over their own account data – including the ability to export, share with third parties and delete (where allowed) this data
- Customer data is protected, meaning it only shared with those third parties they give permission for and with the necessary security and data controls
- Customers are informed of any conditions or barriers to accessing and sharing their data upon account creation (and subsequent changes)
