In the setting of policies for personal data, instructions originating from a primary user and defining a privacy policy for a selected piece of personal data are communicated, via an application unit (), to a privacy-setting node () of a service broker (). The instruction define possible data providers () for the data. The policy is stored at a database () in a privacy tree for the primary user comprising hierarchically arranged personal data with associated policies. Upon receiving a request for the personal data, the privacy-setting node determines whether there is a privacy policy defined from the data by checking the privacy tree of the primary user. If there is a policy for a requested data, it selects a data provider among the possible data providers and returns a response to the application unit, providing access to the requested personal data at this provider.

Means and method for control of personal data

In a method and an arrangement for controlling the operating mode of a subscriber line interface circuit by mode control signals from a control circuit which is connected to the subscriber line interface circuit, the subscriber line interface circuit includes at least one latch which is interconnected between the control circuit and the subscriber line interface circuit. The latch is adapted to latch the mode control signals received from the control circuit in response to latch enable signals received from the control circuit, and to apply those latched mode control signals to the subscriber line interface circuit to control its operating mode.
