Prominent issues for privacy establishment in privacy policies of mobile apps

This article discusses several privacy issues arising from the terms of use and mobile application privacy policies. Guidelines for the establishment of trust and privacy are presented in order to guide designers in the development of applications. Terms of Use and Privacy Policy applications were inspected from the perspective of the guidelines. Special attention was given to the Waze application as character exemplify all the problems and also demonstrate possible solutions from a participatory design session and implementation of the guidelines developed.
