If the objective is to prevent processing these data at all, then maybe they 
should not be sent in the first place.

If the objective is to specify what processing of these data is permitted, then 
there probably needs to be more information that can be fed into a processor so 
it can derive its authorizations.
(Obviously there is more to privacy than personal user data, but you mentioned 
GDPR…)

Indeed, this is probably not the group to invent the shape of the authorization 
data...
