PDSP

Working definition: the Personal Data Sovereignty Protocol as a loop-based architecture for subjective, auditable, decentralized trust.

This concept appears across the SCT loop-series sovereignty pages, where PDSP is treated as a sovereignty substrate and as a LoopLink-based restatement.

In practice, PDSP is the branch where personal data, trust, and subjective auditability are modeled together. It behaves like a sovereignty concept with an implementation edge, not just a product name.

The deeper meaning here is that sovereignty is not being treated as a slogan. PDSP is the point where a person or participant can describe their own data and trust position in a way that still survives audit, transport, and recovery. That is why it sits downstream of LoopLink, adjacent to Intent-Consent, and close to Witnessing and Governance Diad.

Read that way, PDSP is the sovereignty layer of the protocol stack: it says who can assert, who can verify, and how those assertions remain usable over time without turning the person into a passive record.

Notes

  • This is a concept page, not a canon claim.
  • PDSP should stay distinct from any one spec version or bundle.
  • It is the sovereignty substrate vocabulary that recurs across several SCT pages.
