Proving that Northmere Energy uses customer data only for authorised purposes, after complaint CMP-2026-0117 showed pricing model PX-3 was trained on billing smart-meter data and the Priority Services Register flag by people whose access was valid: the eight-band authorised use funnel that takes 214 uses of customer data through purpose, owner decision, request approval, compatibility, sharing agreements, enforcement and recertification down to 129 authorised, recorded and reviewed uses; and the results — request cycle time cut from 23 to 6 days, 97 of 4,860 jobs flagged by monitoring, PX-3 retired and the Standard and Purpose Register assembled.

Authorised Use Optimisation

An expert-level data governance course on making sure an organisation's data is used only for purposes that are authorised - and being able to prove it. Work down the Authorised Use Funnel, eight narrowing bands from everything anyone does with the data to uses that are authorised, purpose-bound, recorded and reviewed: access control versus authorised use; purpose specification and the purpose register; owners and stewards who decide; a data-use request workflow people actually use; secondary use and the compatibility test; data-sharing agreements inside the group and beyond; purpose-based enforcement and monitoring; and recertification, committee assurance and the assembled standard.

What you'll learn

  • Separate access control from authorised use, contain a discovered unauthorised use, inventory every use from technical records and register gaps by cause.
  • Specify purposes to activity, data, output, beneficiary and basis reference, run a purpose register with prohibited uses and change control, and map every use to it.
  • Audit ownership by decisions, write decision rights that separate deciding from advising and arbitrating, and run owner decisions with refusals on the record.
  • Measure and redesign a data-use request workflow with risk lanes, structured requests and expiring approvals, and fix its bottleneck without weakening the control.
