Participant : Daniel Le Metayer.

is a contribution to enhancing individual control over personal data which is promoted, inter alia, by the new EU General Data Protection Regulation. We propose a method to enable better informed choices of privacy preferences or privacy settings. The method relies on a privacy risk analysis framework parameterized with privacy settings. The user can express his choices, visualize their impact on the privacy risks through a user-friendly interface, and decide to revise them as necessary to reduce risks to an acceptable level.
