| Abstract | The increasing adoption of smartphones and their capability of collecting personal and contextual information have generated a tremendous increment in the production of Personal Data (PD). The amount of PD that is available and generated on a daily basis is rapidly growing also due to the increasing number of activities performed online and, in particular, in mobility. Nowadays, a constantly increasing number of users access the internet and an innumerable variety of online/Web services mostly (or exclusively) by mean of their smartphones/tablets, often through specifically designed mobile applications (shortly apps). Very often these apps, which possibly connect external devices/sensors, are their-self source of novel types of PD that are transmitted and collected server-side. The availability of such a huge amount of data represents an invaluable opportunity for organizations and individuals to enable new application scenarios and to benefit from innovative services. Nevertheless, they represent the commodity of a flourishing market mostly fostered by the biggest ICT companies. However, it has also significantly increased the public concern on data privacy. In fact users have, in general, very scarce opportunities to control how their data are accessed and collected and to use them for their purposes. Some OS (see Android) inform users about the accessed resources at installation time but, mainly, such information are not user-friendly and users can either avoid install the App or grant unlimited access to all the required resources, without means to further control permissions or to audit the access to PD. This is far from the desired scenarios in which PD enable and contribute-to the generation of widespread socioeconomic benefits to the collectivity. In order to reach these benefits, we believe that we need a fair PD management, where individuals, empowered with control and awareness over their PD, are enabled to actively and knowingly participate to PD eco-system. We present the design of My Data Store, currently validated in a living-lab: a privacy preserving service that enable users to collect, control and exploit PD generated in mobility. We integrated My Data Store into an innovative framework which enable the development of trusted and transparent (in terms of access and use of PD) services and apps whose behavior can be controlled and audited by the user, enabling the growth of an eco-system of PD-based apps/services. |
