IDEAS 2019- Call for Track Papers: Privacy In Age of Information

This track forms part of the annual IDEAS conference: a top
international forum for data engineering researchers, practitioners,
developers, and application users to explore revolutionary ideas and
results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences.

Scope

The scope of this track is privacy as related to information that is
collected when an individual interacts with so called "free" service
provided on the web. The current benchmark for privacy protection is
embedded in the EU's General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR). This
regulation gives control to individuals over their personal data and
requires any organization which collects and controls personal
information to have in place appropriate measures both technical and
logistic, to implement the data protection principles. Such
organizations are required to disclose their legal basis and purpose
of data collection operations and have publicize the period of data
retention and and the sharing of it with third parities. The data
collecting organization are required to provide, to any data subject
on request, a portable copy of the data collected in a common
format. The data subject has the right to have their data corrected or
even deleted. How would the new web avoid this or would the same
issues repeated. Ideas of a paid service with watertight
privacy. Issues in technical aspect of such regulations, including
having a trail of information aggrgation, is the focus of this track.

Topics

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following.

Privacy, personal data, abuses, exploitation, sharing, deletion,
digital gangsters
