Our free online conference streamed on 23 February ‘Privacy, Seriously’, design and product leaders revealed how they put privacy at the heart of responsible innovation. Watch below to learn from the experts and organisations at the cutting edge of technology and regulation, and maybe even catch a glimpse of where the tech sector goes next.

Agenda

Opening keynote: Privacy is a product issue

Privacy is an intimately human concern. It is often surfaced to users in several ways, and how data flows out of a product can be critical to its commercial viability. But instead of approaching privacy as a product concern, we let compliance lawyers run wild with it, with often detrimental effects. How can we fix this?

Speaker

Robin Berjon is an expert technologist with over two decades’ worth of experience working on open, human-centric systems. Prior to his current position as head of governance and standards at Protocol Labs he spent five years leading The New York Times’s privacy team. He is also the editor of the W3C’s “Privacy Principles” that defines the privacy framework for Web standards.

Panel: Ditching deceptive design

With regulators and the public increasingly wary of technology’s persuasive power, is the writing on the wall for deceptive design patterns?

Closing keynote: Designing for safety – key considerations

There are no silver bullets for designing for interpersonal safety and privacy, but knowing and understanding our most common blind spots as technologists helps. This talk covers the key areas of concern, including trouble with shared accounts, Internet-connected harm, location data, and surveillance, as well as a high-level overview of implementing a practice of designing for safety into your everyday work.
