Summary:
|
This Recommendation recognizes that as RFID greatly facilitates the access and dispersion of information pertaining specifically to the merchandise that individuals wear and/or carry; it creates an opportunity for the same information to be abused for tracking an individual's location or invading their privacy in a malfeasant manner. For this reason the Recommendation develops guidelines and best practices regarding RFID procedures that can be used by service providers to gain the benefits of RFID while attempting to protect the privacy rights of the general public within national policies.
