It’s that time of year again! Data Privacy Day is observed nationally on January 28 (Data Protection Day in the EU). To celebrate, Privacy@Michigan invites you to a keynote presentation on Tuesday, January 28, at 12 p.m. with Dr. Sauvik Das exploring privacy in the age of Artificial Intelligence: What’s changed and what should we do about it?

Following the presentation, Dr. Florian Schaub, Associate Professor of Information, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Michigan, will host a fireside chat and Q&A session.

New Privacy Portraits!
Data Privacy Day is a great time to reflect on your privacy habits. Are you a Guardian, Free Spirit, Skeptic Pragmatist, or Wildcard? The U-M Privacy Portrait Assessment gives you a set of questions to answer and, based on your score, reveals your privacy portrait and personalized privacy advice. Your results are private, of course–you can choose to share them with others or keep them just for you.
Privacy@Michigan, co-sponsored by Information and Technology Services (ITS) and the School of Information, hosts events and activities intended to raise awareness, promote best practices, and provoke thought and conversation on privacy topics broadly relevant to our community members and society at large.
