The need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques

of privacy in the global interconnected societies and possible
solutions. The 2021 Workshop, held in conjunction with the
ACM CCS conference, is the twentieth in a yearly forum for papers

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings. Submissions should be no more than 12
pages in the ACM double-column format, excluding the bibliography
and well-marked appendice. Committee members are not required to
read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without
them. Submissions should not be anonymized. The workshop will also
consider short submissions of up to 4 pages for results that are
preliminary or that simply require few pages to describe. Authors
of regular submitted papers will indicate at the time of submission
whether they would like their paper to also be considered for
publication as a short paper (4 proceedings pages).
Submissions are to be made to the submission web site at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpes2021 .
Only PDF files will be accepted.
Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without
consideration of their merits. Papers must be received by the
deadline of July 16, 2021 (11:59 PM American Samoa time) to be
considered. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent
to authors by September 7, 2021.
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will
be presented at the workshop.
