Description
Data collection is increasingly being carried out through personal mobile devices. A key challenge is dealing with privacy and ethics in a way which is meaningful to the users. GDPR compliance is an obvious aspect, with much of it being handled by existing frameworks already (i.e. consent gathering, secure data handling, etc). There is however an increasing concern around the area of data ethics that the technical handling of GDPR is not sufficient to address. In this project, we will investigate ways to introduce a continuous alignment between participants’ privacy preferences and ethical values in smartphone-based data collection.
