Toward the Cure of Privacy Policy Reading Phobia: Automated Generation of Privacy Nutrition Labels From Privacy Policies

Understand

Software applications have become an omnipresent part of modern society.

• The consequent privacy policies of these applications play a significant role in informing customers how their personal information is collected, stored, and used.
• However, customers rarely read and often fail to understand privacy policies because of the ``Privacy Policy Reading Phobia'' (PPRP).
• To tackle this emerging challenge, we propose the first framework that can automatically generate privacy nutrition labels from privacy policies.
