- Presenting the cookie Back to 1994- Netscape creates the “magic cookie” to maintain browser state during connection problems. Its implemented and stored without public knowledge in 1995 and becomes public in 1996 with an article from the financial times. Describing a cookie in few words; it’s a small text file (4KB) each where the server asks the corresponding browser to store the cookie on your computer or mobile device. The cookie will allow website to remember your actions and preferences overtime. With regards to numbers, the browser is able to store 3000 cookies, 50 per server.

- How do we encode cookies? We will use ZARA.COM to explain how to encode a cookie. Zara is a spanish clothing and accesory global retailer, starting offering online shopping since 2010 with the use of cookies. First step to encode a cookie: Understanding the Functionality- in our example we have used firefox as our web browser. Firefox will request a web page to zara.com. Zara.com will send the browser the page requested + cookie. If brower requests another page, cookie will be send back to the server in order to record preferences and send the new requested page. Second step to encode a cookie: Currently Zara.com uses 13 types of cookies. We can classify the cookies used by theme, lifespan and domain. By theme: 1)Technical cookies: they help zara.com identify the user ID. With this cookie user can create an account, sign in and manage shopping activity. An example of this cookie: JSESSIONID. 2)Functional cookie: they help zara.com identify your preferences such as language, country, currency etc. The website will be more effective and efficient. 3) Analytics cookie: they help zara.com gain user insights, find out what works and what doesn’t and best ways to optimize website to ensure it’s always interesting and relevant for user. 4) Commercial cookie: they are third party cookies. By lifespan: Session cookie Persistent cookie By domain: First party cookie Third party cookie Third step, encoding cookie: Server sends cookie with HTTP header called set cookie. The set cookie is composed of a value and 4 optional elements. The value will be the name of the cookie. If there are multiple cookies for same request: Cookie= value1, value2 Name1=value1, name2=value2 Expire option: Indicates when the cookie should no longer be sent to the server and deleted by browser. Format with screenshot: 19 FEB 2025 17:33:58 GMT Domain option: Indicates the domain for which the cookie should be sent. With our example its domain= zara.com Path option: Indicates another option where the cookie will be sent. Path= / Secure option: There is no added value specified. By default a cookie will be sent only when request is using SSL and HTTPS protocol Example of zara.com cookies with screenshot Sources: http://www.nczonline.net/blog/2009/05/05/http-cookies-explained/ http://static.zara.net/static//pdfs/CH/privacy-policy/privacy-policy-en_CH-20131125.pdf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie#Setting_a_cookie

Recognition of fundamental right of protection of personal data They conducted market research in EU towards the attitude on Data Protection and electronic Identity- EUROBARAMETER 359 Key highlights- Scenario: -70% of Europeans are concerned that their personal data held by companies may be used for a purpose other than that for which it was collected. -As regards the “right to be forgotten”, a clear majority of Europeans (75%) want to delete personal information on a website whenever they decide to do so. -Only 12% of European web users feel completely safe making online transactions. -Personal data would be better protected in large companies if these companies were obliged to have a data protection officer (88%).

- With the huge growth of internet usage for a variety of activities, online Privacy it’s gaining more and more importance As the focus of online activity migrates from desktop and laptop computers to smartphones and other mobile devices, the mechanisms for protecting your privacy continue to evolve. As discussed in the previous lecture online privacy aims to protect consumers against physical, psychological and financial harm, by imposing rules on how businesses communicate and use the data they collect from users. Terms of services present on websites generally state the policy of use. The more technology evolves, the more we assist to an important trade-off between the need and request form savvy and evolved consumers for a personalized user experience, and the necessary data collection and use by companies to develop products able to satisfy these requests. All this, often to the detriment of online privacy, since the same data is often used to build a more effective marketing communication with consumers (i.e. remarketing) Moreover, as often happens with technology and its fast innovation pace, governmental regulations tend to become quickly outdated leaving consumers on their own when trying to deal with privacy risks.
- The Privacy Policy should state what broad classes of information are being collected, for what purposes, who it may be shared with and for how long it will be retained. It is a nice to have to create a better environment online and to protect your business from lawsuits (http://www.opentracker.net/article/how-write-website-privacy-policy ) On the user side: 1. It is hard to opt out: (https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/protecting-yourself-social-networks) Sometimes could be hard to access a website without accepting the cookies because they don’t have pop ups or there is no option to reject them. 2. But you have the right to reject and delete cookies, for example with Chrome PlugIns 3. Google (http://www.stayonsearch.com/does-google-have-a-record-on-you-how-to-protect-yourself): how much they know about you?

- Mobiles are compact storehouses of personal data. 2. Stolen Data: They theoretically can track all movements. - the microphone and camera can be activated remotely. apps can access every phone call, email or text sent or received, as well as every site visited and every tweet tweeted. Some can even send messages under your name without your knowledge (http://www.computerworld.com/article/2487422/data-privacy/evan-schuman--what-to-include-in-your-mobile-privacy-policy.html) Examples of apps that retain your data: • Foursquare (Email, Phone Numbers no warning) • Instagram (Email, Phone Numbers, First, Last warning) • Facebook (Email, Phone Numbers, First, Last warning) Twitter for iOS (Email, Phone Numbers, warning) (http://gizmodo.com/5885321/how-iphone-apps-steal-your-contact-data-and-why-you-cant-stop-it) 3.

- TOR / VPN Our classmates already spoke about Tor and how it works, so today I’d like to show you Private Internet Access, which is a VPN service. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network, which essentially is a network of computers who filter your traffic in order to make you anonymous. VPN can be used to encrypts your connection with an anonymous IP, to protect your privacy. Your traffic is encrypted and passes through This is beneficial if you want to access content which has been restricted by government censorship (i.e. Facebook and part of google in China), geographic censorship or simply to have a more secure ocnnection when using internet in public places (i.e. Starbucks, Airports etc.). This prevents your ISP (when you are at home) or Starbucks to log your traffic data and know what you do online The peculiarity of PIA is that they don’t log any traffic data form you, making it one of the most secure.
