This document is a non-binding concept note. It outlines how NeuralPrivacy.org can be used as a global, neutral banner for neural data and mental privacy governance — without describing or implying any existing operational service.
The goal of NeuralPrivacy.org is to provide a simple, institution-grade name around which organisations can structure charters, observatories, indices or programmes dedicated to neural privacy, mental privacy and cognitive liberty. The domain is descriptive and neutral: it is not a product brand, but a shared label that can host norms, principles and evidence.
Over the next decade, AI, neurotechnology and brain–computer interfaces will make neural activity legible to machines. Neural signals will no longer be confined to clinical settings; they will increasingly inform research, consumer devices, workplace tools and defence applications. As soon as neural data can be recorded, analysed and monetised, traditional privacy law becomes insufficient.
A dedicated language is emerging around neural data, mental privacy and neuro-rights. Legislators, regulators, NGOs and research communities need a focal point to bring these conversations together. NeuralPrivacy.org can serve as that focal point: a stable name that points to the protection of the mind in a data-driven world.
Examples are illustrative only; they do not bind the buyer nor the seller.
NeuralPrivacy.org can host a voluntary framework setting out principles for the collection, processing and use of neural data. The emphasis is on human rights, mental integrity, transparency and limits on inference or manipulation. Tech companies, BCI manufacturers, AI platforms and public bodies could sign or reference the framework as part of their governance.
A second role is that of an observatory tracking laws, guidelines, case law and enforcement actions related to neural data. From this work, an index or scorecard could be derived — comparing jurisdictions, sectors or organisations on how they protect mental privacy and neural data.
NeuralPrivacy.org can also act as a curated hub pointing to academic work, NGO reports, technical standards and policy recommendations. The objective is not to replace existing institutions, but to give them a coherent entry point into this emerging field.
Foundations, philanthropies or multi-stakeholder alliances may use NeuralPrivacy.org as the banner for a programme on “Neural Privacy & Human Rights”. Grants, research calls, advocacy campaigns and public engagement efforts could all be hosted under this umbrella without needing to create a separate, less intuitive brand.
NeuralPrivacy.org focuses on the protection of neural data and mental states. It sits naturally alongside, but distinct from, other governance concepts such as:
An acquiring organisation may choose to articulate NeuralPrivacy.org with adjacent initiatives on BCI governance, AI safety, data protection, human rights or neuroscience, but there is no obligation to do so.
This concept note deliberately leaves governance choices open. Depending on the buyer’s mandate, NeuralPrivacy.org could be:
In all cases, the domain provides continuity: even if structures change over time, NeuralPrivacy.org remains the stable banner under which the work is recognised.
The following points summarise the safety posture associated with the domain as transferred.
Organisations that see NeuralPrivacy.org as a relevant banner for their mission can:
The intention is simple: provide a name that helps protect the most intimate frontier of privacy — the human mind — while remaining strictly neutral and descriptive.
