The <b>Party ABE</b> enables defining an individual, an organization, or an organization unit that is of interest, involved or that provides value directly or indirectly from an enterprise perspective (Enterprise is to be understood here as provider, service provider or operator). <br/>Hence the Party plays one or more roles with the enterprise or with another Party playing a role with the enterprise (indirectly). This is introduced to specify that the only party an enterprise would be interested in and will consider in its systems is a party playing a role (directly or indirectly). <br/>Roles would be represented by the PartyRole concept. Additional roles will be defined to cover the needs of the new digital ecosystem."<br/>Examples of roles played by Parties include those:<br/><ul> <li>Of interest, such as competitors, sales prospects</li><li>Involved, such as customers, users, employees</li><li>That provides value directly or indirectly, such as service providers, operators, cloud brokers, infrastructure providers, application developers.</li></ul> <font color="#29313b">This Party ABE defines information about companies and people. Implementations of this model are responsible for ensuring that the relevant privacy legislation standards are adhered to in the countries that will use the implementation.</font><br/><br/>
