Addressing Challenges: A Way Forward

This chapter provides an overview of solutions for achieving usable privacy. First, the need for combining human-centred and privacy by design approaches is highlighted. Moreover, it is discussed how important challenges for usable privacy can be approached by available solutions. These include example approaches for considering culturally dependent privacy personas, developing usable Privacy-Enhancing Technology (PET) configuration tools through interdisciplinary efforts, raising users’ attention to privacy as a secondary goal via engaging them with the policy content, designing usable multi-layered privacy notices and usable privacy management via semi-automation, and achieving usable transparency through usable explanations of PETs and different forms of visualisation of data disclosures. Finally, we discuss how fundamental legal privacy requirements map to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) requirements and HCI solutions, focusing on the solutions discussed in this chapter.
