    1. Describe and discuss the different aspects of privacy.

    2. Identify and evaluate the way personal data is collected whilst navigating the web and using apps on smart devices.

    By the end of step 4 you should be able to answer the question:

    To recap what we have learnt so far:

    ·      In step1 we were introduced to the concept of ‘privacy’

    ·      In step2 we learnt that ‘personal data’ refers to a living person

    ·      In step3 we learnt about some of the ways our data can be captured online (e.g. though cookies)

    In this step we will explore ‘human rights’.
