Methods, apparatuses, and systems for data rights tracking

Methods, systems, and apparatuses embodied herein control and track access to secured data independent of the asset storing the secured data. In this regard, some embodiments organize volumes including one or more datasets and attach one or more assets to each volume. Some embodiments further receive data permissions of use information, for example from a data steward device, for the volume and datasets, which are registered with the volume and the datasets. Some embodiments further receive a set of restrictions, retrieve the dataset permissions of use information for one or more dataset identifiers, and determine the restrictions do not conflict with the dataset permissions of use information. Some embodiments further generate, and subsequently store, an indication the set of restrictions is valid when the dataset permissions of use information does not conflict. Permissions of use information may be organized into persona data objects assigned to various user profiles.
