Innovation project on digital privacy in mobile apps
Our motivation.
Current situation in the Digital World:
- Mobile Apps request access to a wealth of personal data
- Terms of Service (ToS) documents are hard to read or understand (our consent is often uninformed)
- This practice hurts the market in the long run, especially small companies since users lose their trust on digital products

Socio-technical approach
