Privacy & Security

Our group, Project Cookies, focuses on privacy violations caused by browser programmes that accept cookies. Our goal is to streamline the procedure and comprehension of the user agreements that users consent to when they accept cookies. Many users consent to things without completely understanding what they are doing, which can cause confusion and possibly result in privacy breaches that users were unaware they had agreed to in the first place. Thinking aloud is the process by which a user—in this case, you—describes the content and flow of their ideas as they work on a particular activity.

Our Project

We are Project Cookes and we are covering privacy breaches in accepting cookies on browser applications.

We want to simplify the process and understanding of the user agreements that users are accepting when accepting cookies. Many users don’t fully understand what they are agreeing to and this can lead to confusion and possibly privacy breaches that users were not previously aware that they agreed to.

Do you have any questions for us moving forward in this process?

The idea of thinking out loud is when a user, in this case, you, will describe their thoughts and the direction of their thoughts while going about a specific task.

For this task I am going to ask you to work your way through the prototype and create an account.

Thank you for taking out the time and you are free to ask any questions you would like now.
