Abstract

The development of new technology makes that information about us is collected on a massive scale. Almost every our activity leaves a trail (e.g. credit cards). Especially a lot of these trails we leave using the internet. So the subject of the development are problems of data protection and privacy on the Web. It’s good to know that when we publish information about yourself, we are giving up privacy particles – we lose of information control. In the article also noted that the first and last names should be avoided, as well as an address or phone number. Be careful to not sent information sensitive and intimate (e.g. health status) or confidential (e.g. PIN to your account). In addition, we do not always decide for ourselves what information about us is on the Net. Sometimes, someone makes this decision for us. In this situation, we have the right to react – expect others to respect our privacy. We should also respect the privacy of others. In a word, we forget about our security on the web. Meanwhile, to protect your privacy in the virtual world, you do not have to spend money or try hard. It’s enough to follow a few simple rules.
