Abstract

Online privacy has consistently been a major concern for customers, growing commensurately with the growth of online commerce. Individuals often have serious concerns that their online activities are being monitored, which can prevent them from using online services. With this concern in view, service providers have started making their privacy policies more clear to customers. However, legacy systems often lack flexibility and the inability to adapt to user's interests, which are often the main reasons for inappropriate agreement. Negotiation between the service provider and user can be a possible solution to reach an agreement which seems appealing and profitable to both parties. In this paper we have developed a negotiation mechanism using the concept lattice approach. Using concept lattices in a privacy policy makes it flexible and allows both the parties to sacrifice a few interests for mutual benefits and appropriate agreement.
