If you think about what your data tells others about you, it may not seem like a big deal. Who cares if you’re a fan of country music, like to buy more shoes than you need, or start planning your next vacation a year in advance?

The problem lies in what’s happening with your data. Taken together over time, your habits, movements, relationships, preferences, beliefs, and secrets are revealed to those who analyze and profit from them, like businesses and data brokers. What can you do to ensure your privacy is protected online?

This webinar explores the reasons online privacy is so important, while also giving participants an introduction to the Data Detox Kit, which has been recognized by the Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center as a model of technology that seeks an inclusive, fair and safer future.
