1. A sensor for generating sensor data comprising including a subset of tagged sensor data, the sensor comprising:
a sensing element;
a data identification engine;
a data tagging engine;
a policy agent engine; and
a communication interface;
wherein the sensing element is configured to obtain ambient data, the ambient data characterizing a condition of an environment proximate to the sensing element;
wherein the data identification engine is configured to obtain the ambient data from the sensing element, and the data identification engine is configured to identify at least a first subset of the ambient data including a representation of, or identifying information related to, personally relevant information obtained by the sensing element;
wherein the policy agent engine is configured to receive, via the communication interface, an updated data tagging policy from at least one external server;
wherein the policy agent engine is configured to configure the data tagging engine with the updated data tagging policy;
wherein the data tagging engine is configured to tag the first subset of the ambient data with at least one data tag according to the updated data tagging policy; and
wherein the communication interface is configured to output at least a second subset of the ambient data including ambient data that has not been tagged by the data tagging engine and, based on the tagging, selectively withholding the tagged first subset from being output in original form.
