Abstract :
Privacy in the Internet is currently not addressed or just stated to tacit acceptance. The user is left to either accept or deny the contractual conditions. A negotiation and thus dynamic contract placement would allow for fairer chances concerning privacy. This article introduces a data-model to describe negotiation preferences and the resulting contracts. It is described, how proposals of contracts are to be compared with the preferences for acceptance and what steps of negotiation can be taken. This model is examined for privacy contracts between enterprises and their customers.
