Privacy issues have been the subject of public debates and the need
for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been
widely recognized. Goal of this workshop is to discuss the problems of
privacy in the global interconnected societies and possible solutions
to it.  The 2003 Workshop is the second in what we hope will be a
yearly forum for papers on all the different aspects of privacy in
today's electronic society. The first workshop in the series was held
in Washington, on 21 November 2002, in conjunction with the 9th ACM
CCS conference. The success of this first workshop and the increased
interest of the community in privacy issues, is the main reason for
repeating the event.
The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting
novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of electronic
privacy, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems. We
encourage submissions from other communities such as law and business
that present these communities' perspectives on technological
issues. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- anonymity, pseudonymity, unlinkability  
- business model with privacy requirements 
- data protection from correlation and leakage attacks 
- electronic communication privacy 
- information dissemination control 
- privacy-aware access control 
- privacy in the digital business 
- privacy enhancing technologies 
- privacy policies and human rights 
- privacy and anonymity in Web transactions 
- privacy threats 
- privacy and confidentiality management
- privacy in the electronic records
- privacy in health care and public administration
- public records and personal privacy
- privacy and virtual identity
- personally identifiable information
- privacy policy enforcement
- privacy and data mining
- relationships between privacy and security
- user profiling
- wireless privacy


PAPER SUBMISSIONS
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings. Papers should be at most 15 pages
excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices (using 11-point
font and reasonable margins on letter-size paper), and at most 20
pages total. Committee members are not required to read the
appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without
them. Papers should have a cover page with the title, authors,
abstract and contact information.
To submit a paper, send to wpes-s2dqJKy1HM9OhR2lhbcafA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx a plain 
ASCII text email
containing the title and abstract of your paper, the authors' names,
email and postal addresses, phone and fax numbers, and identification
of the contact author. To the same message, attach your submission (as
a MIME attachment) in PDF or portable postscript format. Do NOT send
files formatted for word processing packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or
WordPerfect files).
Papers must be received by the deadline of JUNE 10, 2003. Accepted
papers will be presented at the workshop and published by the ACM in a
conference proceedings.

PANEL PROPOSALS 
Proposals should be no longer than 5 pages in length, should include
possible panelists and an indication of which panelists have confirmed
participation.
Send to wpes-s2dqJKy1HM9OhR2lhbcafA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx a plain ASCII text email 
containing the
title of your panel and contact information. To the same message,
attach your proposal (as a MIME attachment) in ASCII, PDF, or portable
postscript format. Do NOT send files formatted for word processing
packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files). Panel proposals
