Could we be revealing information that a person has not chosen to share?
- How can you make sure the product doesn’t inadvertently disclose sensitive or private information during use (e.g., indirectly inferring user locations or behaviour)?
- Could movements or actions be revealed through data aggregation?
If you answered Yes then you are at risk
If you are not sure, then you might be at risk too
Recommendations
- Be careful when making data public that you think is anonymised. Location data and routes can sometimes be de-anonymised (e.g. users of a running app disclosing location by showing heatmap).
- It is also important to offer privacy by default: offer the privacy settings by default at the maximum protection level. Let the users change the settings after having offered them clear information about the consequences of reducing the privacy levels.
