REFLECTION
Experience
At first, I was very confused and had no idea what to do. I didn’t fully understand how to begin the research. But as I completed each task, like creating research questions, collecting survey responses, and writing the paper,I slowly learned. Now, I have a better understanding of how to write a research paper, cite sources properly, and I’ve gained more knowledge about privacy in UX design.
Observation
While reading UX-related articles, I observed that many platforms make it difficult for users to access, understand, or manage their privacy, sometimes unintentionally, sometimes not. I also noticed that when users were given clear and user-friendly privacy settings, they felt more in control and safer. This increased their trust in the platform.
Findings
I used to think that users ignored privacy settings because they didn’t care. But this research proved me wrong. I realized that long texts, legal language, confusing layouts, and unclear buttons make it harder for users to understand and manage their data. These are design problems, not user problems. Good UX design should make privacy simple, clear, and accessible, not overwhelming.
