Abstract
An approach is provided for providing data based on granularity information. The policy platform determines to act on a request, from an application or a service, for data associated with a device, a user of the device or a combination thereof. Next, the policy platform determines a granularity level for the data based, at least in part, on at least one privacy policy associated with the data, the application, the service, the device, the user of the device or a combination thereof. Then, the policy platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of the data to generate transformed data based, at least in part, on the granularity level.
