Principle of Purpose
Below are subsequent criteria The Ikoku Corporation shouldĀ follow to determine and ensure the appropriate nature of theĀ purposeĀ for processing data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determinesĀ a purpose for processing to be appropriate, effective and respectful ā and thus the principle of purpose to be adequately addressed ā only if and to the extent that all of the following apply:
Furthermore, The Ikoku Corporation determines a purpose to be legitimateĀ only if and to the extent that the above and allĀ of the following apply:
And furthermore, by engaging in any activity at, by, for, in, on behalf of, with or otherwise pertaining to The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the divisions, series, subsidiaries, or affiliates, as well as any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the Products or Services, you accept and agree to the terms, conditions, and requirements described above, and in the Codes and Policies, in their entirety without modification.
Principle of Informed Consent
Below are subsequent criteria The Ikoku Corporation should follow in determining and ensuring respect for autonomy andĀ informed consentĀ when processing data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determines your autonomy and consent to be respectedĀ ā and thus the principle ofĀ informed consent to be adequately addressedĀ āĀ via a five-part evaluation.
The first part consists of a statement of community standards The Ikoku Corporation upholds with respect to consent and their subsequent ethics requirements:
The second part consists of the standard The Ikoku Corporation should follow in asking for and maintaining consent before, during and after processing data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should therefore be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determines consent to be given and maintained only if and to the extent that the following standard has been met:
As you may already be able to tell from the paragraph above, consent is a high-quality standard, and an important basis for the work The Ikoku Corporation does regarding personal data and information. The Ikoku Corporation wishes for you to be educated as well as informed during your decisions to give or withdraw consent. And to do that the Policy will start here to break consent into its essential components and explain each one.
SoĀ the third part of this policy evaluation concerns making sure you are in a situation where your consent isĀ freely givenĀ and meaningful.
The next part of the policy evaluation has to do with making sure the consent process has reasonablyĀ informedĀ you ā as the natural or legal person concerned. That typically occurs where the form, page, part or request for consent informs you of the following:
The fifth and final component has to do with establishing clarity, identity and understanding during the consent process itself. It is best to explain this component as the Policy places all five parts together. It should thus be clearer, now, when the Policy states that The Ikoku Corporation endeavors to achieve and maintain a quality of informed consent meeting the above standard, by havingĀ all of the following apply:
Addendum ā What About Assent?:Ā Then there are situations ā as this Policy alluded to earlier ā where the consent you give cannot be considered freely given and meaningful, or you may not be able to properly give consent at all. Here, The Ikoku Corporation still insists on treating you as a deciding human being and individual as much as possible, and so aftercarrying out the informing consent process in good faith, the policy evaluation proceeds through the order below and determines yourĀ assent to have been fulfilled when one of the following applies:
And furthermore, by engaging in any activity at, by, for, in, on behalf of, with or otherwise pertaining to The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the divisions, series, subsidiaries, or affiliates, as well as any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the Products or Services, you accept and agree to the terms, conditions, and requirements described above, and in the Codes and Policies, in their entirety without modification.
*As a clarifying indication of how highly protective measures should be under conditions of informed assent (or consent): note that applying the principles of necessity, non-identification, minimization and sensitivity insists that mechanisms for performance and security-related review or testing at The Ikoku Corporation should still normally be developed and conducted without resorting to personal profiling, surveillance or tracking.
Principles of Necessity and Minimization
Below are subsequent criteria The Ikoku Corporation should follow to determine and ensure necessity and minimization whenĀ processing data and informationĀ attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determines processing to be necessary and minimal ā and thus the principles ofĀ necessity and minimization to be adequately addressed ā only if and to the extent that all of the following apply:

Principle of Non-Identification
Below are subsequent criteria The Ikoku Corporation should follow to determine and maintain non-identificationwhen processing data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determines processing to be non-identifying ā and thus the principle of non-identification to be adequately addressed ā via a two-part evaluation.
The first consists of a statement of The Ikoku Corporationās preferred (or normative) approach to design when it comes to handling personal data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you:
The second part of the evaluation for non-identification is a statement of our default (or normative) position when handling personal data and information that is no longer identifying:
And furthermore, by engaging in any activity at, by, for, in, on behalf of, with or otherwise pertaining to The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the divisions, series, subsidiaries, or affiliates, as well as any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the Products or Services, you accept and agree to the terms, conditions, and requirements described above, and in the Codes and Policies, in their entirety without modification.

*As a clarifying indication of how highly protective measures should be, even under conditions of informed consent (or assent): note that applying the principles of necessity, non-identification, minimization and sensitivity insists that mechanisms for performance and security-related review or testing at The Ikoku Corporation should still normally be developed and conducted without resorting to personal profiling, surveillance or tracking.
Principle of Sensitivity
Below are subsequent criteria The Ikoku Corporation shouldĀ follow to determine and ensure stricter protections forĀ sensitivityĀ whenĀ processing sensitive personal data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. It should be understood that The Ikoku Corporation determines processing to be sensitive ā and thus the principle of sensitivity to be adequately addressed ā via a four-part evaluation.
The first consists of a definition of sensitivity ā which helps The Ikoku Corporation determine or decide whether and what to treat as sensitive personal data and information:
The second part ofĀ the evaluation for sensitivity and for the protection ofĀ sensitive personal data and information is a statement of the Policyās default (or normative) position ā which is to prohibit the processing of sensitive personal data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you:
The third part ofĀ the evaluation for sensitivity and for the protection ofĀ sensitive personal data and informationĀ is a statement of the narrow exception The Ikoku Corporation shall be expected to consider and possibly allow, as well as the conditions for such review:
The fourth part ofĀ the evaluation forĀ sensitivity and for the protection ofĀ sensitive personal data and informationĀ consists of a set of request situations The Ikoku Corporation expects to receive, asking to be added to the above narrow exception, and this PolicyāsĀ further expectation that The Ikoku Corporation shall typically decide to either (a) insist on review and consent via the conditions delineated above or (b) insist on review and consent via the conditions delineated above andĀ additional regulation:
And furthermore, by engaging in any activity at, by, for, in, on behalf of, with or otherwise pertaining to The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the divisions, series, subsidiaries, or affiliates, as well as any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the Products or Services, you accept and agree to the terms, conditions, and requirements described above, and in the Codes and Policies, in their entirety without modification.
*you may learn more about the principles of protection and security by design and by default on this Policy section under Principles of Protection and Security; similarly, you may learn more about the principles of confidentiality and privacy by design and by default on this Policy section under Principles of Confidentiality and Privacy.

Principle of Commensurability
The principle of commensurability and its criteria delineated below are followed by The Ikoku Corporation in recognition of the likelihood that contexts will arise where it seems that two or more interests, persons,Ā principles, rights or responsibilities render the fulfillment of data and information policies incommensurable, when they do not. The Ikoku Corporation feels that where it is asserted that there is no common basis for the comparison of policy claims or injunctions, other much less fair or ideal approaches take the place vacated by prior information and notice, managed expectations, analysis and deliberation, consideration, discernment, judgment and respect. It is better, therefore, to assert the existence of, and clarify a rubric for, just such a common basis at The Ikoku Corporation. It consists of the following:
And furthermore, by engaging in any activity at, by, for, in, on behalf of, with or otherwise pertaining to The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of The Ikoku Corporation, any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the divisions, series, subsidiaries, or affiliates, as well as any activities, affairs, areas, assets, offices, parts, properties, sections, or equivalent of the Products or Services, you accept and agree to the terms, conditions, and requirements described above, and in the Codes and Policies, in their entirety without modification.

D ā Expected Processing
The Expectations and Categories of Processing
Success at fulfilling the principles, rights, and responsibilities of personal data and information partly depends on a set of shared, reasonable expectations for the administration, management and processing of data and information. Developing that shared understanding requires a schema for presenting what can at times be a complex amount and confluence of data, information, people and operations. The Policy here thus clarifies the broad categories of content, sources, purposes, persons concerned, and specific recipientsĀ that The Ikoku Corporation reasonably expects to consult, engage and work with during the administration, management and processing of data and information attributable to, identifying and otherwise relating to you. The Ikoku Corporation feels that providing these categories ā and brief descriptions or examples ā should facilitate your understanding during the consent process and the exercising of your data and information rights. The Policy starts by delineating them below:
It should therefore be expected that the above schema of broad categories will be part of our communication with you, as a rubric for presenting the sources, purposes, content, persons concerned and recipients pertaining to your personal data and information, and forĀ informing and consenting you accordingly. The Ikoku Corporation thus hopes ā and by way of this Policy ā to be clearer and better able to respect your consent decisions whenĀ processing the data and information, and to also more effectively fulfill applicable principles, rights, and responsibilities of personal data and information.
Personal Data and Information, Sources
There are ten (10) broad sources ā or points of activity and engagement ā at and through which The Ikoku Corporation reasonably expects to access or otherwise process data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you ā with your knowledge and informed consent. These sources may include any of the following:
Personal or Non-Personal? ā There is some discussion about whether data and information collected via cookies and similar technologies can be treated as non-personal data and information, as has often been the case in a number of well-known platforms and sites. At The Ikoku Corporation the policy on this matter is hopefully clear:
It should therefore be expected that the above sources and points of activity and engagement for personal data and information may variously result in data and information sets treated as either personal or non-personal. The Ikoku Corporation will inform and consent you accordingly.Ā Then The Ikoku Corporation will respect your consent decisions whenĀ processing the data and information, and also remain committed to fulfilling any applicable principles, rights, and responsibilities of personal data and information.
Personal Data and Information, Content
There are five (5) broad types ā andĀ twenty-five (25) specific categoriesĀ ā of personal data and information that The Ikoku Corporation reasonably may access or otherwise processĀ with your knowledge and informed consent. As should be evident in the listing and brief descriptions to follow, some are by nature sensitive data and information ā certainly meriting thought on your part regarding what and whether to provide or consent to accessing and other processing. And some do incur additional duties and responsibilities on The Ikoku CorporationāsĀ part ā to keep you knowledgeable and informed, particularly about the range of personal data and information other entities could be collecting about you. Below the Policy delineates and describes these broad types as well as the specific categories under each one:
Biographical, Communications, SocialĀ ā
Economic, Financial, TransactionalĀ ā
Mental, Psychological, PreferencesĀ ā
Physical, Physiological, InteractiveĀ ā
Technological, Tracing, TrackingĀ ā
This is Serious! How Can I Protect and Enjoy Myself? ā The Ikoku Corporation completely agrees: this is indeed a very serious matter. But you can still enjoy the Products and Services by, first, being thoughtful about exercising your rights to consent and the consent process. And second, focusing on making sure you are doing whatās described under Uniquely and Privately Authenticating Data and Information, namely:
Can Above Personal Become Non-Personal? ā There is some discussion about whether personal data and information of the categories, kinds and types delineated above could eventually become or be treated as non-personal data and information, after undergoing a number of de-identifying processes. At The Ikoku Corporation the policy on this matter is strict, highly respectful and hopefully clear:
It should therefore be expected that the above types and specific categories of personal data and information are most likely to result in data and information sets treated as personal (even confidential, private and sensitive) till their deletion, erasure or destruction, if possible. Only on the successful implementation of assuredly irreversible anonymization and aggregation measures will there be possibility of treatment as non-personal. The Ikoku Corporation will inform and consent you accordingly.Ā Then The Ikoku Corporation will respect your consent decisions whenĀ processing the data and information, and also remain committed to fulfilling any applicable principles, rights, and responsibilities of personal data and information.
Personal Data and Information, Purposes
The primary objective whenever The Ikoku Corporation accesses or otherwise processes personal data and information is to provide and improve experiences you and all other natural and legal persons have with the Products and Services, as well as with the affiliates, divisions, subsidiaries and varied sections of The Ikoku Corporation. One wayĀ ofĀ ensuring this occurs is by clarifying the ten (10) categories of purposes The Ikoku Corporation reasonably expects to ask consent for when processing data and information attributable to, identifying or otherwise relating to you. The Policy delineates and describes them below:
Visiting with No Personal Data or Information:Ā Finally, The Ikoku Corporation would like to note that your provision of any personal data and information, and your consent to any processing, should be understood as freely given and meaningful. During your first arrival, activities, engagement or visit, The Ikoku Corporation may ask you to provide personal data and information. You will not be required to provide the requested personal data and information to browse or occasionally visit the Products and Services. And there is much to enjoy here in that manner. Though do note that if you decide not to do so, you might not be able to take full advantage of the Products and Services ā as is customary, expected and hopefully understandable.
Personal Data and Information, Persons Concerned
There are fifteen (15) broad categories of natural and legal persons concerned for personal data and information that The Ikoku Corporation reasonably expects to administer, manage and process. The Policy delineates and describes them below:

Though do note that if you decide not to do so, you might not be able to take full advantage of the Products and Services ā as is customary, expected and hopefully understandable.
NonPersonal and Anonymous Data and Information
The Ikoku Corporation expects the commitment to fulfilling principles, rights, and responsibilities of consent, necessity, minimization ā and most pertinently non-identification ā to regularly entail accessing and otherwise processing data and information in forms and states that do not permit association with or identification of any specific natural or legal person concerned. It is therefore important to here clarify expectations for the definition and processing of what The Ikoku Corporation would classify and treat as non-personal data and information:
As may be evident from the explanation above, the sources ā or points of activity and engagement ā where The Ikoku Corporation may access and otherwise process non-personal data and information do include those for personal forms. Similarly, categories, types and purposes of processing for non-personal data and information also include those delineated previously in sections dedicated to personal forms. But there areĀ sources, categories and purposes of processing specifically appropriate for, compatible with, designed and reserved for data and information that are non-personal in form. These include the following:
Visiting and Non-Personal Data and Information: Finally, The Ikoku Corporation would like to note that your provision of any personal data and information, and your consent to any processing, should be understood as freely given and meaningful. During your first arrival, activities, engagement or visit, The Ikoku Corporation may ask you to provide personal data and information.

And The Ikoku Corporation furthermore ensures that all such specific individual recipients shall be reviewed, vetted and authorized by the Founder and The Ikoku Corporation prior to, during and after any assignment, delegation or transfer and associated data and information activities and operations. Below the Policy delineates and describes the official entities and their sole authorizer:
Sole Founder, President, CEO and Authorizer:Ā Finally, the sole natural person recipient and sole person with authorization powers with respect to the above and any other administration, management and processing of data and information, whether personal or non-personal, is Alvan Azinna Chibuzo Ikoku, Founder, President, CEO and Chair of The Ikoku Group and Publiks Inc.
