چکیده

This paper discusses the approach taken within the PrimeLife project for providing userfriendly privacy policy interfaces for the PrimeLife Policy Language (PPL). We present the requirements, design process and usability testing of the “Send Data?” prototype, a browser extension designed and developed to deal with the powerful features provided by PPL. Our interface introduces the novel features of “on the fly” privacy management, predefined levels of privacy settings, and simplified selection of anonymous credentials. Results from usability tests showed that users find some of these features useful and privacy-friendly, and they are therefore suggested as a good approach towards usable privacy policy display and management.

Towards a Formal Language for Privacy Options

Describing complex ideas requires clear and concise languages. Many domains have developed their specific languages for describing problem instances independently from solutions and thus making a reference model of the domain available to solution developers.

Towards Displaying Privacy Information with Icons

European data protection regulation obliges every service provider to show a privacy policy on his web site. Many privacy policies are too long, too complicated to understand, and reading them is hardly appealing.
