Welcome to the website of the Workshop on Privacy-Enhanced Personalization (PEP'05)!

This one-day workshop will be held during the 10th International Conference on User Modeling (UM'05) in Edinburgh, UK. It is intended for researchers and practitioners both in the domain of personalization systems and in the area of privacy and security.

Personalizing people's interaction with computer systems entails gathering considerable amounts of data about them. As numerous recent surveys have consistently demonstrated, computer users are very concerned about their privacy. Moreover, the collection of personal data is also subject to legal regulations in many countries and states. Such regulations impact a number of frequently employed personalization methods. This workshop will explore the potential of research on "privacy-enhanced personalization," which aims at reconciling the goals and methods of user modeling and personalization with privacy constraints imposed by individual preferences, conventions and laws.

A brief workshop wrapup can be downloaded from here.
