{{?RFC6973}} discusses data minimization, especially in the context of
90-
user identity and identity management systems.
91-
In these systems usually an identify provider issues credentials that can be used to access a
92-
service without revealing the user's identity by relying on the authentication assertion from
93-
the identity provider (see {{Section 6.1.4 of RFC6973}}). This describes a specific form of
94-
privacy partitioning, similar as used for Privacy Pass (see Section {{privacypass}}).
95-
Privacy partitioning as defined in this document goes further, to consider different deployment
96-
models that can create multiple contexts where data is minimized in each context.
89+
Privacy partitioning is particularly relevant as a tool for data minimization, which is described
90+
in {{Section 6.1 of ?RFC6973}}. {{RFC6973}} provides guidance for privacy considerations in
91+
Internet protocols, along with a set of questions on how to evaluate the data minimization
92+
of a protocol in {{Section 7.1 of ?RFC6973}}. Protocols that employ privacy partitioning
93+
ought to consider the questions in that section when evaluating their design, particularly
94+
with regards to how identifiers and data can be correlated by protocol participants and
95+
observers in each context that has been partitioned. Privacy partitioning can also be
96+
used as a way to separate identity providers from relying parties
97+
(see {{Section 6.1.4 of RFC6973}}), as in the case of Privacy Pass
98+
(see Section {{privacypass}}).
