Trust: Designing Privacy, Consent, & Security into Your Products

Most software today collects and tracks as much data as possible with no concern for privacy or user consent.
Consumers and regulations are starting to demand change. It's time to focus on building trust with our users. Our products should collect only what data is necessary, should always receive consent before collecting data, and should have proper security in place to protect collected data.
