Abstract:

This paper introduces a Privacy-by-Design (PbD) approach to enhance data protection, transparency, trust, explicit consent, and adherence to privacy regulations in school admission web forms. At its core is the prototype Privacy Notice Generator (PNG) tool, which generates tailored and concise privacy notices for each web form data field. Feedback from two participant groups; web form designers and end users, informs the design of the proto-type tool. The tool and the generated privacy notices are evaluated through user testing, with feedback analysis guiding further refinements. Beyond just school admissions, this study offers insights that could enhance data privacy and transparency in web forms across various sectors.
