Society is concerned about personal data usage on the web and regulators are looking to address privacy challenges. The Data Transparency Lab is a community effort launched by Telefonica to increase transparency around how personal data flows and is used online through research, tools, and awareness raising. The lab plans to award 10 research grants of 50,000 euros each to foster the creation of tools and raise awareness on this important issue.
