Abstract

A database system can comprise records, each record including a set of attributes. The database system can further comprise database views, each database view representing a subset of the set of attributes. Data purpose objects indicating a subset of attributes of the set of attributes and a processing purpose can be stored. Each processing purpose can be associated with one or more entities that authorized access to the subset of attributes of the processing purpose. A request for data for a specific processing purpose and a selected view of the database views can be received. A data purpose object that indicates the specific processing purpose can be retrieved. The subset of attributes represented by the selected view can be compared with the subset of the attributes indicated in the retrieved data purpose object. Values of the subset of attributes of the selected view can be provided.
