Claim 13:
14. A system for providing location-based services, comprising:
a device including a processor, a memory, and a privacy agent configured for network communication with a database and a global privacy policy registry;
wherein the privacy agent is configured to create at least one geofence corresponding to a specified location and at least one set of privacy rules corresponding to the at least one geofence;
wherein the database is operable to store geofence data associated with the at least one geofence, a space-network model (SNM) binding Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and physical locations;
wherein the global privacy policy registry is operable to store the at least one set of privacy rules and the at least one geofence;
wherein the privacy agent is operable to enforce the at least one set of privacy rules and enable the location-based services on at least one network device;
wherein enforcement of the at least one set of privacy rules and enablement of the location-based services is based on the geographic location of the at least one network device within the at least one geofence;
wherein the privacy agent is operable to provide at least one smart contract corresponding to a set of terms and conditions for data collection for the at least one network device;
wherein the privacy agent is operable to identify a geographic location corresponding to the at least one network device using a unique SNM identifier, wherein the unique SNM identifier is updated in real-time or near-real time;
wherein the privacy agent is operable to provide at least one smart contract corresponding to a set of terms and conditions for data collection for the at least one network device;
wherein the SNM is a separate virtual property from the physical location corresponding to the SNM; and
wherein the privacy agent determines whether the at least one network device is within the at least one geofence via comparison of the geofence data stored on the database to the unique SNM identifier-associated geographic location determined for the at least one network device.
