GDPR uses the term 'personal data' and I assume for many leafs in a data model the answer whether a leaf is 'personal data' is not simple to answer given that also data items belong to 'personal data' if they combined with other information can identify a natural person. For example, is an IPv6 prefix 'personal data'? Well, it depends...
‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person; Another possible question is whether the act of tagging (or not tagging) leafs in a data model has a legal liability component at the if the processing of data depends on such tags. Well, that surely depends on what the presence of such a tag implies, does such a tag control access to data on a NC/RC server (nacm:default-deny-all), does it control storage of data outside a NC/RC server, does it control processing of data outside a NC/RC server? What you need I think are context (deployment) specific tags, static data model tags likely only work for the (obvious) trivial cases and may mislead people to be GDPR compliant while they are not. /js On Wed, May 26, 2021 at 09:49:32AM +0000, Balázs Lengyel wrote: > Hello, > > Netconf/Restconf can transfer a lot of data.
