DATA CTRL is a collaborative project for the NYC Media Lab x Consumer Reports Privacy Policy Prototyping Challenge. Our team prototyped an online educational tool and chatbot to provide users information on the consequences of their data agreement and to have a single location to control their data outcomes across multiple websites. Over the course of a short dialogue, users could ask about the different components of a privacy policy and specify exactly what settings they want. The focus of the project was on user research, content design, and art direction.

Our chatbot, Deecee, would ask the user their comfort levels with different privacy settings, and explain what changing them would mean. Deecee helps users connect with the consequences of their data choices and have a single location to control their data outcomes across multiple websites. Over the course of a short dialogue, you could ask about the different components of a privacy policy, and specify exactly what settings you want.
