Exploring Privacy

Privacy is a controversial topic and the level of interest in and commitment to privacy varies for every individual. Privacy is defined differently depending on a person's unique existence and what they define as "sensitive" information.

This website offers educational resources within which the theory and practice of privacy is the theme. The goal of this website is to offer an additional perspective on privacy and how to think about and consider more privacy-forward behaviors to better protect sensitive information.

In order to take control of data exposure and manage data deemed to be sensitive in a more privacy-conscious manner, it is inevitable that, at some point, behavioral changes need to be made. Behavioral modifications can be a significant barrier to implementing change, but this barrier should not be a deterrent. The need to adapt and design redundancies is crucial to living a more private lifestyle. Motivation, or the catalyst for the pursuit of more privacy, helps to support the need to adapt.
