Value Context Protocol

Your context. Your control. Private reasons stay private.

Two scenarios showing how VCP protects your privacy while enabling personalized experiences.

How VCP Works

Your context becomes a compact token. Private details stay with you—only flags travel.

Privacy by Design

Platforms see that you need quiet practice, not why. They see budget is limited, not your financial situation. Flags influence adaptation; details stay private.

What VCP Does

Private Reasons Stay Private

Your constraints (health, family, work) influence recommendations through boolean flags. Platforms see "budget limited: true" not "single parent struggling financially."

Configure Once, Use Everywhere

Set your preferences once. Every compatible platform instantly knows how to serve you without asking the same questions again.

Full Transparency

See exactly what each platform received. Audit trails show what was shared, what was withheld, and what private context influenced decisions.

Trust Without Exposure

Stakeholders (HR, community, coaches) see compliance and progress without accessing your personal circumstances. Privacy and accountability coexist.
