The power of UX design to impact privacy
The User Experience design of products and services can have a big impact on protecting people’s privacy and data rights.
However, UX designers are often not part of data protection conversations or given tools or space to think creatively about how to design for better privacy. The ICO recently published design guidance that shows ways to design for data rights in practice and empowers designers to create better products and services that protect our privacy.
