Abstract
En 中文
Advances in technology have made us as a society think more about cyber security and privacy, particularlyhow we consider and protect personal information. Such developments have introduced a temporal dimensionto the definition of personal information and we have also witnessed new types of data emerging (e.g.,phone sensor data, stress level measurements). These rapid technological changes introduce several challengesas legislation is often inadequate, and therefore questions regularly arise pertaining whether informationshould be considered personal or sensitive and thereby better protected. In this paper, therefore, we lookto significantly advance research into this domain by investigating how personal information is regarded ingovernmental legislations/regulations, privacy policies of applications, and academic research articles. Throughan assessment of how personal information has evolved and is perceived differently (e.g., in the contextof sensitivity) across these key stakeholders, this work contributes to the understanding of the fundamentaldisconnects present and also the social implications of new technologies. Furthermore, we introduce a seriesof novel taxonomies of personal information which can significantly support and help guide how researchersand practitioners work with, or develop tools to protect, such information.
