Rigorous Privacy Compliance in Modern Application Ecosystems

在当今的数字环境中，诸如移动的应用和浏览器扩展之类的现代网络应用已经成为消费者访问互联网的主要网关。该项目旨在通过开发新的隐私合规评估框架来解决这些生态系统中的隐私问题。该框架将评估应用程序生态系统当前的隐私实践，使澳大利亚和全球的用户和开发人员能够可靠地识别其应用程序的潜在隐私风险和问题。预期结果应赋予数据控制者证明其遵守数据保护立法的能力，例如澳大利亚隐私法1988和欧盟通用数据保护条例（GDPR）。

Modern network applications such as mobile applications and browser extensions have become the primary gateways for consumers to access the Internet in today’s digital landscape. This project aims to address privacy issues in these ecosystems by developing a new privacy-compliance assessment framework. The framework will evaluate the current privacy practices of application ecosystems, enabling users and developers in Australia and worldwide to reliably identify potential privacy risks and issues on their applications. The intended outcomes should endow data controllers with the capability of evidencing their compliance of data protection legislations such as Australia Privacy Act 1988 and EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
