Abstract: 

This talk will focus on how Amazon deployed the Global Privacy Control (Sec-GPC). The Global Privacy Control is a new web technology that allows customers to restrict the sale of their data, the sharing of their data with third parties, and the use of their data for cross-site targeted advertising. The talk starts by summarizing the standard and how the Global Privacy Control works. Then, we will talk about the different lessons learned when deploying the Global Privacy Control to millions of Amazon customers.
