[MyData & Open Data] Personal data & privacy logo

[Edafe Onerhime]

Hi Sally

What I get from the logo is that it represents safety and privacy of
personal data. The icon makes me think "person" and "protection" are the
they key messages. If this is the message the brand is trying to convey,
then, from my perspective, it has succeeded.

Cheers

Edafe
