| 38 | +abstract: >- |
| 39 | + Data collection by websites and their integrated third |
| 40 | + parties is often not transparent. We design privacy |
| 41 | + interfaces for the browser to help people understand who |
| 42 | + is collecting which data from them. In a proof of concept |
| 43 | + browser extension, Privacy Pioneer , we implement a |
| 44 | + privacy popup, a privacy history interface, and a |
| 45 | + watchlist to notify people when their data is collected. |
| 46 | + For detecting location data collection, we develop a |
| 47 | + machine learning model based on TinyBERT, which reaches an |
| 48 | + average F1 score of 0.94. We supplement our model with |
| 49 | + deterministic methods to detect trackers, collection of |
| 50 | + personal data, and other monetization techniques. In a |
| 51 | + usability study with 100 participants 82% found Privacy |
| 52 | + Pioneer easy to understand and 90% found it useful |
| 53 | + indicating the value of privacy interfaces directly |
| 54 | + integrated in the browser |
