Privacy & Security

Problem Statement: How can we inform users about the costs of blindly agreeing to terms and conditions when signing up on social media platforms? Social media users often encounter lengthy and difficult-to-understand terms and conditions and are often coerced into agreeing to them without comprehending them. This can lead to many problems, including privacy violations. Our team aims to simplify terms and conditions and present them in an easy-to-understand manner to help users make informed decisions about their privacy and data.
