	'''Data ~~Passport~~ System'''. The Data ~~Passport~~ system is a suite of technical services that builds on Dataswyft One’s decentralised capability to enable organisations to create data networks. It comprises of 3 services - (1) Data Connector Services to bring source data into PDAs, (2) A Data ~~Passport~~ Service to ~~display~~ data within a consumer app ~~and (3) a Merchant Data Terminal Service to receive data from a PDA when the individual shares it~~. The Data ~~Passport issuer create Data Passes~~ - a ~~description of a bundle~~ of data within a PDA that ~~can attract complementary services (offers)~~ from ~~partners within a network~~, usually called a Merchant. ~~Should a user wishes to go~~ to the ~~merchant and accept their offer~~, the ~~merchant will benefit from the audience, the data, or both. Any data transaction would result in~~ a ~~licensing of the PDA data described on the Data Pass from the individual to the merchant.~~		'''Data Wallet System'''. The Data Wallet system is a suite of technical services that builds on Dataswyft One’s decentralised capability to enable organisations to create data networks. It comprises of 3 services - (1) Data Connector Services to bring source data into PDAs, (2) A Data Wallet Service to orchestrate data within a consumer app. The Data Wallet enable “badges” to be issued - a standardised digital envelope of data within a PDA that is of use from businesses in the Dataswyft Network, usually called a Merchant. Merchants may be interested to advertise in the wallet, validate the information on a badge of request for data to be shared.

	~~'''Dataswyft Prime'''. Dataswyft One’s sister platform for Organisations with their own Organisation Data Servers. This platform is part~~ of ~~Dataswyft’s Enterprise Solution with Economic and Business Model Frameworks~~ for ~~centralised, decentralised and distributed~~ data ~~architectures~~ to ~~assist enterprises in creating value with data~~.

	Data stored within Personal Data Accounts on the Dataswyft One platform is ~~out of scope of~~ global data regulations due to individuals being the data controllers and processors of their own data. Hence, a governance and regulatory framework was put in place, guided by the original research project on how the ecosystem should be organised, managed and regulated. This is part of the "institutional rearrangement" of the ecosystem using a combination of technology, markets and regulatory controls.		Data stored within Personal Data Accounts on the Dataswyft One platform is compliant with global data regulations due to individuals being the data controllers and processors of their own data. Hence, a governance and regulatory framework was put in place, guided by the original research project on how the ecosystem should be organised, managed and regulated. This is part of the "institutional rearrangement" of the ecosystem using a combination of technology, markets and regulatory controls.

	The company is governed on 2 levels by HCF. At the corporate level, HCF owns a guardian share of Dataswyft and sits on its board, to ensure directors perform their fiduciary duty to uphold Dataswyft’s complementary social purpose “to operate for the public benefit, a digital exchange for the exchange of personal information including data processing, hosting and related activities”. At the operational level, HCF has oversight over Dataswyft One Platform through the Platform Management Committee that decides on any changes to various Platform policies, technical artefacts (e.g. APIs) and risk assessment of data contracts. Dataswyft cannot set up the contracts between Application owners and server owners if risks fall outside approved parameters set by the governance framework and the approval of the contract (and hence the app) would have to be escalated to HCF. Where there is ambiguity in contracts, the HCF Ethics Board would have to be consulted. Application owners have recourse to appeal to HCF in the unlikely event that a contract to use a PDA is denied. All PDS owners are members of HCF when they own a PDS and all Application owners are corporate members of HCF when their app goes live. As a consequence of the legal and governance framework, Dataswyft is able to be a fully commercial enterprise to scale its infrastructure and build new networks and markets that have not been possible before.

	Dataswyft also provide “Network-as-a-Service” once PDAs are integrated, enabling the app to have a Data Passport functionality and for the app to create “Data Passes” that can be matched with Partner services. Dataswyft provides a no-code onboarding of partners to offer services and content for the Data Passes. Network-as-a-service enables consumer app owners to derive income from creating a data network with their partners through listing, traffic and data sharing fees paid by Merchant Partners. The network income are distributed 50% to the Passport issuer and 50% to Dataswyft as network operator.

	~~Universal Data Passes such~~ as ~~income verification, age verification or National Passport verification are add-ons~~ to a ~~Data Passport that any app~~/~~website can incorporate~~.
