As the Internet and digital technology become a bigger part of our lives, more of our data becomes publicly ready for use, leading to questions about privacy. So, how do we connect with the growing digital world without giving in the safety of our information and our right to privacy?

Imagine that you want to learn a new language. You search “Is German a difficult language?” on your phone. Then you read an article with advice on learning German. You use a search service to find German classes. It asks you to turn on location services to find classes near you. You click “accept”. Later, while you’re sending an email, an advertisement about a local language school teaching German pops up. You wonder how they’ve known. At all steps of your online activity, your phone and websites are collecting data and following your behavior online.
