The GÉANT Data protection Code of Conduct (CoCo) defines an approach at a European level to meet the requirements of the European Union Data Protection Directive for releasing mostly harmless personal attributes to a Service Provider (SP) from an Identity Provider (IdP). For more information please see GEANT Data Protection Code of Conduct.

CoC CoCo is used in the eduGAIN interfederation to make services available to users of European higher education institutions. The CoCo makes it possible to automatically release mostly harmless attributes to Service Providers which fulfill the EU Data Protection Directive. The expected IdP behaviour is to release the Service Provider required subset of the attributes eptid, eppn, email, displayName, scoped affiliation and schacHomeOrganization. The required subset of attributes for a specific service is defined in the mandatory Service Provider Privacy Policy.

For a service to be tagged with CoC CoCo it must contact the federation that it has registered with. If the service is registered within the SWAMID federation the service operator sends an e-mail to operations@swamid.se with a formal request.

  • Purpose and scope of the service.
  • Documentation which proves that the service has fulfilled all the requirements for CoCCoCo.

Upon receiving a request SWAMID operations will respond within two weeks.
