Cases dealt with are fictional services co-created with the participants of the Data &amp; Design workshops. The solutions considered here are not intended to be recommendations to copy, but rather contextual illustrations of creative processes that might inspire your services and products. The study does not cover the entire user experience, but simply concentrates on key points. As such, it does not necessarily cover all GDPR requirements.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"context\">Product&#8217;s Context<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tailor-Made brand specialises in sale of made-to-measure garments. Its positioning assumes that customers go to one of its tailor\u2019s shops to have their measurements taken. The mobile application enables users to choose one or more articles, make an appointment in the nearest shop and be notified once the product is ready. These interactions are guided by a conversational interface (also known as a chatbot). When the order is ready, it is delivered to the customer\u2019s home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chatbot choice breaks from the interfaces ordinarily used in order to collect web users\u2019 information. Getting away from form codes and boxes to tick enables provision of new purchasing and consent experiences. In this new conversational world, what would be the best architecture in compliance with users\u2019 rights?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ux\">User pathway and key steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The purchase pathway is unique in that it is divided into three stages. The first happens online, when users fill their shopping carts and make a tailor\u2019s shop appointment. The appointment itself is the second stage: once at the shop, users\u2019 measurements are taken and their orders invoiced. Finally, following the appointment, the service regularly notifies customers on the progress of their orders up until they are delivered. It is evident that most information is upwards in the first half of the pathway, when users are invited to provide information, and downwards in the second half, with notifications on the service\u2019s monitoring of the order. The Tailor-Made team largely focused on the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This example provided participants with an opportunity to take a closer look at forms of data collection and of collecting consent in the context of a conversational interface. They put forward several solutions, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>spreading collection of personal information across the conversation<\/strong> guided by the chatbot. The experience provided by use of a conversational interface leads users to share information useful to the service by avoiding giving them the off-putting impression of having to fill out a form. Such splitting up of information collection enables each step in collection to be combined with a request for consent;<\/li><li><strong>adding a confirmation step when payment is made<\/strong>, at a time in which users\u2019 vigilance is usually increased as they have to carry out an important action that also commits them. With chatbots, where obtainment of consent is incorporated into the conversation, this stage makes it possible to check whether or not users have expressed their choices correctly.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dialogue\">The conversational interface: another category for collecting information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants saw the chatbot as an opportunity to contextualise collection of information by splitting the process up, as the choice of a conversational mode provided more occasions to inform and elicit users without affecting the quality of their experience with the service. Hence, discussion alternates between questions on users\u2019 needs and wants (which item, what colour, what date for the appointment?), collection of information (name, location, email address), and details to do with data processing and requests for consent (receiving the newsletter, partners\u2019 offers, geolocalised advertisements). In this way, participants found a fluid, contextual means of incorporating data collection and obtainment of consent into the user pathway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-2-columns block-ex-1col is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proposed approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"375\" height=\"1148\" src=\"https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Conversation-FR@2x.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Conversation-FR@2x.png 375w, https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Conversation-FR@2x-98x300.png 98w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><figcaption><em><em><em>You can see here that collection of personal information is carried out in several stages: first of all location, immediately followed by a request to share data with partners, and then the email address, which generates two consecutive requests for consent.<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sharing\">An extra step for checking how one&#8217;s data are shared<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One&nbsp;of the participants wondered whether obtainment of consent via a conversational interface might represent a risk to users. If a user mistakenly chooses an item he\/she does not want, the conversational interface does not immediately provide much means of changing their choice, unlike other kind of interactions (such as a preference management dashboard).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to deal with this type of situation, participants integrated a consent recap at the end of the appointment pathway. They chose to dissociate it from the conversation\u2019s format and include it before final validation of the appointment request. By summarising the consents that were collected over the course of the conversation, the recap enables users to make sure that their information is shared in accordance with their preferences and to change a wrong choice made during the conversation with the chatbot. In the event of a user wishing to have more information on the way in which his\/her data is used, a link to the confidentiality policy was also integrated at this point in the interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-2-columns block-ex-1col is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proposed approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"375\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/R\u00e9capitulatif-avant-paiement-\u2013-4@2x-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/R\u00e9capitulatif-avant-paiement-\u2013-4@2x-1.png 375w, https:\/\/design.cnil.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/R\u00e9capitulatif-avant-paiement-\u2013-4@2x-1-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><figcaption><em><em><em><em>Before confirming their appointment, users receive a recap of their information, consents, order and appointment.

It may involve them more and increase the attention they pay to the service and their actions, but at the same time it may be highly distracting as it offers a new means of interaction more likely to produce operational errors on their part. With this new type of interface, it is essential to integrate ways of easily reconfiguring choices, included here at recap level. Nonetheless, conversational interfaces provide interesting possibilities for implementation of the GDPR\u2019s principles, due to the need for sequencing and narration of information presented to users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tailor-Made offers made-to-measure clothing and accessories.
