<blockquote><p>When Mydex came into being in 2007, its founders made a number of important decisions — these decisions are what make Mydex remain unique even in todays blossoming Personal data ecosystem. It had to be free to individuals for life, the data had to be under their control, and Mydex as a company had to be self-sustaining and protect its core values. These prerequisites guided the evolution of Mydex: a Community Interest Company, a Social Enterprise and its range of trust platform services for citizen controlled storage and exchange of Personal data, identity and engagement, in a safe, secure and easy manner. We are working to improve outcomes for individuals and organisations alike.</p>

<blockquote><p>It is not possible to make good policy decisions about priorities for investments, grants, innovation and research projects or rules and regulations if the grounds for these decisions are faulty. Currently, effective policy making is hampered by widespread misunderstandings about where the biggest economic opportunities lie, the nature of issues such as control, and the role of citizens in the workings of the data economy.</p>

<blockquote><p>A key part of this is continuity and longevity: a Personal data store is for life, so the institutions providing Personal data stores should be designed for decades (centuries, even). Whatever particular corporate form they take, legal safeguards relating to continuity and longevity of purpose need to be built into how they operate.</p>

<blockquote><p>Over the last 14 years we have built the infrastructure needed to make citizen data empowerment possible — infrastructure capable of providing every individual with their own Personal data store, where they can safely and securely collect their own data, use it and share it under their own control. This infrastructure is now live and operational, officially recognised as a supplier to public services on procurement platforms in both England and Scotland and independently accredited for data management security under ISO 27001.</p>

</li>
<blockquote><p>The central plank of Mydex CICs consultation response is that the UK needs to build a new layer of data logistics infrastructure that:- Includes citizens in the workings of the data economy, empowering them with the ability to collect, store, use and share data about themselves independently of any data controllers they may have data relationships with.<br />- To achieve this, the Government needs to ensure that every citizen is provided with their own Personal data store, which enables citizens to collect, store, share and use their own data, under their own control, for their own purposes, independently of any organisation that may have collected data about them.<br />- These Personal data stores should be designed to act as neutral, enabling nodes in a vibrant data sharing network, whereby citizens can obtain copies of their data held by organisations and can forward relevant elements of this data (such as Verified Attributes) to other data users under their control, as and when beneficial and necessary.<br /></p>
