Privacy Design Model Application on Sharing Pictures Apps

Abstract

This work in progress is meant to describe the privacy related to user's personal information in apps that allow sharing pictures among users. The Privacy Design Model (PDM) supported the privacy appreciation offered by Instagram and Snapchat. The methodology consisted of the Semiotic Inspection Method (SIM) application on the main apps features. Following, the PDM guided the privacy dimensions identification in both apps. To consolidate the analyses, the results provided by SIM and PDM were contrasted to each other.
