Abstract

An arrangement for enabling users to set and modify privacy policies is described. User attributes and existing privacy policies are used to determine the similarity between users. On this basis, the nearest-neighbors to a particular user are determined. When a user is required or wishes to provide or modify a policy, the policies of those nearest neighbors are used to recommend a privacy policy to the user.
