 The need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been 
 widely recognized. This workshop discusses the problems of privacy in the 
 global interconnected societies and possible solutions. The 2013 Workshop, 
 held in conjunction with the ACM CCS conference, is the twelfth in a yearly 
 forum for papers on all the different aspects of privacy in today's 
 electronic society.
 
 The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel 
 research on all theoretical and practical aspects of electronic privacy, 
 as well as experimental studies of fielded systems. We encourage submissions 
 from other communities such as law and business that present these 
 communities' perspectives on technological issues. 
 Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

 PAPER SUBMISSIONS

 Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
 published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
 conference with proceedings. Regular submissions should be at most 10
 pages in the ACM double-column format, excluding well-marked
 appendices, and at most 12 pages total. 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
 http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpes2013. You will be
 requested to upload the file of your paper (in PDF format
 only). Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection
 without consideration of their merits.  Papers must be received by
 the deadline of July 22, 2013 to be considered.  Notification of
 acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors by August 15,
 2013. The camera ready must be prepared by August 30, 2013 (firm).
 Proceedings of the workshop will be published by ACM on a CD,
 available to the workshop attendees. Papers will be included in the
 ACM Digital Library, with a specific ISBN. Each accepted paper must
 be presented by an author, who will have to be registered by the
 early-bird registration deadline.
