This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 4th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2016, held in Frankfurt/Main, Germany, in September 2016. The 12 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. The papers are organized in three sessions: eIDAS and data protection regulation; IoT and public clouds; and privacy policies and privacy risk presentation.
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 9th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 9 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Implementing Personal Data Processing Principles; Privacy Enhancing Technologies; Promoting Compliance with the GDPR.
Privacy is one of the most urgent issues associated with information technology and digital media. This book claims that what people really care about when they complain and protest that privacy has been violated is not the act of sharing information itself—most people understand that this is crucial to social life —but the inappropriate, improper sharing of information. Arguing that privacy concerns should not be limited solely to concern about control over personal information, Helen Nissenbaum counters that information ought to be distributed and protected according to norms governing distinct social contexts—whether it be workplace, health care, schools, or among family and friends. She warns that basic distinctions between public and private, informing many current privacy policies, in fact obscure more than they clarify. In truth, contemporary information systems should alarm us only when they function without regard for social norms and values, and thereby weaken the fabric of social life.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2018, held in Barcelona, Spain, in June 2018. The 11 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. The papers are grouped in topical sections named: technical analysis and techniques; privacy implementation; compliance; and legal aspects.

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the First Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2012, held in Limassol, Cyprus, in October 2012. The 13 revised papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: modelling; privacy by design; identity management and case studies.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2017, held in Vienna, Austria, in June 2017. The 12 revised full papers were carefully selected from 41 submissions on the basis of significance, novelty, and scientific quality. These selected papers are organized in three different chapters corresponding to the conference sessions. The first chapter, “Data Protection Regulation”, discusses topics concerning big genetic data, a privacy-preserving European identity ecosystem, the right to be forgotten und the re-use of privacy risk analysis. The second chapter, “Neutralisation and Anonymization”, discusses neutralisation of threat actors, privacy by design data exchange between CSIRTs, differential privacy and database anonymization. Finally, the third chapter, “Privacy Policies in Practice”, discusses privacy by design, privacy scores, privacy data management in healthcare and trade-offs between privacy and utility.
Privacy and Technologies of Identity: A Cross-Disciplinary Conversation provides an overview of ways in which technological changes raise privacy concerns. It then addresses four major areas of technology: RFID and location tracking technology; biometric technology, data mining; and issues with anonymity and authentication of identity. Many of the chapters are written with the non-specialist in mind, seeking to educate a diverse audience on the "basics" of the technology and the law and to point out the promise and perils of each technology for privacy. The material in this book provides an interface between legal and policy approaches to privacy and technologies that either threaten or enhance privacy. This book grew out of the Fall 2004 CIPLIT(r) Symposium on Privacy and Identity: The Promise and Perils of a Technological Age, co-sponsored by DePaul University's College of Law and School of Computer Science, Telecommunications and Information Systems. The Symposium brought together leading researchers in advanced technology and leading thinkers from the law and policy arenas, many of whom have contributed chapters to the book. Like the Symposium, the book seeks to contribute to a conversation among technologists, lawyers, and policymakers about how best to handle the challenges to privacy that arise from recent technological advances.
Privacy-invading technologies (PITs) such as Body scanners; Public space CCTV microphones; Public space CCTV loudspeakers and Human-implantable microchips (RFID implants/GPS implants) are dealt with in this book. The book shows how and why laws that regulate the design and development of privacy-invading technologies (PITs) may more effectively ensure the protection of privacy than laws that only regulate data controllers and the use of such technologies. The premise is supported and demonstrated through a discussion on these four specific PITs as case studies. In doing so, the book overall attempts to explain how laws/regulations that mandate the implementation of Privacy by Design (PBD) could potentially serve as a viable approach for collectively safeguarding privacy, liberty and security in the 21st Century. This book will be of interest to academic researchers, law practitioners, policy makers and technology researchers.
