[IRP] location of data in the cloud // new URL

[Max Senges]

Hi there

In the privacy section
<https://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ajcs86p9dx2s_488rpfcbcc#Article_12_Privacy__6397468594785073>are
a couple of imprecise language like "hidden mechanisms" and I would urge our
privacy experts to take another look before we hand it over to the experts.

One point struck me particularly was: "Service providers have a
responsibility to make clear in which legal jurisdiction(s) the user's data
is being hosted, so that the user can make informed decisions."

My understanding is that with cloud computing it is impossible to say in
which jurisdiction data resides. When I travel to asia some of my files (the
ones i access from there) move (temporarily) to a data center in asia. Not
sure what the best solution is, but it seems to me that the current language
is not "future proof".

The Charter has a new URL @

Best
