It will enable citizens to monitor and control their privacy with a user&nbsp;friendly solution provided as a smart phone application, a web browser add-on and a<br \/>\npublic website.&nbsp;Privacy Flag will:<\/p>\n<p>1. Develop a highly scalable privacy monitoring and protection solution with:<br \/>\n&#8211; Crowd sourcing mechanisms to identify, monitor and assess privacy-related risks;<br \/>\n&#8211; Privacy monitoring agents to identify suspicious activities and applications;<br \/>\n&#8211; Universal Privacy Risk Area Assessment Tool and methodology tailored on&nbsp;European norms on personal data protection;<br \/>\n&#8211; Personal Data Valuation mechanism;<br \/>\n&#8211; Privacy enablers against traffic monitoring and finger printing;<br \/>\n&#8211; User friendly interface informing on the privacy risks when using an application or<br \/>\nwebsite.<\/p>\n<p>2. Develop a global knowledge database of identified privacy risks, together&nbsp;with online services to support companies and other stakeholders in&nbsp;becoming privacy-friendly, including:<br \/>\n&#8211; In-depth privacy risk analytical tool and services; &#8211; Voluntary legally binding&nbsp;mechanism for companies located outside Europe to align with and abide to&nbsp;European standards in terms of personal data protection;<br \/>\n&#8211; Services for companies interested in being privacy friendly;<br \/>\n&#8211; Labelling and certification process.<\/p>\n<p>3. Collaborate with standardization bodies and actively disseminate towards&nbsp;the public and specialized communities, such as ICT lawyers, policy makers&nbsp;and academics.&nbsp;By combining the UPRAAT methodology, distributed privacy monitoring agents and&nbsp;crowd sourcing, the platform will enable a large scale privacy risk assessment&nbsp;process, which would not be possible with a regular top down assessment approach.&nbsp;Moreover, by mutualizing the skills and capacities of the crowd, it will reverse and&nbsp;rebalance the asymmetric relationship between individual users in front of large and&nbsp;powerful companies with a clear incentive to comply with privacy protection. More&nbsp;generally, Privacy Flag intends to provide a set of tools and services to improve&nbsp;personal data protection and privacy of European citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Several European partners, including SMEs and a large telco operator (\u039f\u03a4\u0395 S.A.),&nbsp;bring their complementary technical, legal, societal and business expertise; strong&nbsp;links with standardization bodies and international fora; and outcomes from over 20&nbsp;related research projects. It will build a privacy defenders community and will&nbsp;establish a legal entity with a sound business plan to ensure long-term sustainability&nbsp;and growth.<\/p>\n<p>More information about Privacy Flag where OTE participates as the project&nbsp;coordinator, can be found at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.privacyflag.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.privacyflag.eu\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Privacy-Flag (GA No.653426) &#8211; Contact info<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Ioannis P.
