New Privacy Principles for a more trustworthy web
Protecting user privacy is fundamental to creating a web that works for everyone. Last week, W3C published its Statement on Privacy Principles, which provides definitions for privacy concepts plus privacy principles to guide web development. Learn more about this guide and how it can help us all to create a more trustworthy web for users around the world by “levelling up” privacy.
We hope this guide will enhance the community’s understanding of privacy, illustrate ways of realizing it in practice, and inspire a vision of the trustworthy web that we can create and sustain together. This provides context for the actionable principles, each of which is marked with the audiences that it's most relevant to: websites, user agents or API (web technology) designers. This document is the result of sustained effort by the Privacy Principles Task Force(a group representing a wide range of web stakeholders, convened by the W3C Technical Architecture Group), with particular credit to its Chair Daniel Appelquist and to the document editors, Robin Berjon and Jeffrey Yasskin.
