Transparency and accountability are indispensable principles for modern data protection, from both, legal and technical viewpoints. Regulations such as the GDPR, therefore, require specific transparency information to be provided including,…
Most companies' new business practices are based on customer data. These practices have raised privacy concerns because of the associated risks. Privacy laws require companies to gain customer consent before using their information, which…
The rapid expansion of Artificial Intelligence is hindered by a fundamental friction in data markets: the value-privacy dilemma, where buyers cannot verify a dataset's utility without inspection, yet inspection may expose the data (Arrow's…
As conversational AI systems become more realistic and widely deployed, users are increasingly uncertain about whether they are interacting with a human or an AI system. When AI identity is unclear, users may unwittingly share sensitive…
Individuals lack oversight over systems that process their data. This can lead to discrimination and hidden biases that are hard to uncover. Recent data protection legislation tries to tackle these issues, but it is inadequate. It does not…
Privacy is an individual choice to determine which personal details can be collected, used and shared. Individual consent and transparency are the core tenets for earning customers trust and this motivates the organizations to adopt privacy…
Employees work in increasingly digital environments that enable advanced analytics. Yet, they lack oversight over the systems that process their data. That means that potential analysis errors or hidden biases are hard to uncover. Recent…
Defining privacy and related notions such as Personal Identifiable Information (PII) is a central notion in computer science and other fields. The theoretical, technological, and application aspects of PII require a framework that provides…
Today, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has a direct impact on the daily life of billions of people. Being applied to sectors like finance, health, security and advertisement, AI fuels some of the biggest companies and research institutions in…
This paper aims to cover and summarize the field of IoT and related privacy concerns through the lens of privacy by design. With the ever-increasing incorporation of technology within our daily lives and an ever-growing active research into…
Existing work on privacy by design mostly focus on technologies rather than methodologies and on components rather than architectures. In this paper, we advocate the idea that privacy by design should also be addressed at the architectural…
Sensor-based interactive systems -- e.g., "smart" speakers, webcams, and RFID tags -- allow us to embed computational functionality into physical environments. They also expose users to real and perceived privacy risks: users know that…
The transition toward Industry 5.0 is reshaping industrial work environments with an emphasis on human-centricity, enabling close collaboration between humans and machines to enhance productivity and flexibility. However, such systems…
Pufferfish privacy (PP) is a generalization of differential privacy (DP), that offers flexibility in specifying sensitive information and integrates domain knowledge into the privacy definition. Inspired by the illuminating formulation of…
Visualizing data often entails data transformations that can reveal and hide information, operations we dub disclosure tactics. Whether designers hide information intentionally or as an implicit consequence of other design choices, tools…
An accountable algorithmic transparency report (ATR) should ideally investigate the (a) transparency of the underlying algorithm, and (b) fairness of the algorithmic decisions, and at the same time preserve data subjects' privacy. However,…
With the growing use of camera devices, the industry has many image datasets that provide more opportunities for collaboration between the machine learning community and industry. However, the sensitive information in the datasets…
Recommender systems have become a pervasive part of our daily online experience, and are one of the most widely used applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Therefore, regulations and requirements for trustworthy…
Ensuring the usefulness of electronic data sources while providing necessary privacy guarantees is an important unsolved problem. This problem drives the need for an overarching analytical framework that can quantify the safety of…
Of growing concern in privacy scholarship is artificial intelligence (AI), as a powerful producer of inferences. Taken to its limits, AI may be presumed capable of inferring "everything from everything," thereby making untenable any…
