ACM CHI 2026 Workshop - Moving Beyond Clicks: Rethinking Consent and 
User Control in the Age of AI

Submission deadline: Feb 12 AoE
Notification: Feb 24
Date and place: one day on April 13-17 in Barcelona, in conjunction with 
ACM CHI; exact date will be known when the CHI program is finalized

Our everyday digital lives are saturated with challenging privacy 
decisions, many of which are stacked against us through the use of 
manipulative design. Emerging work on interfaces such as voice and 
V/X/AR show similar problems emerging. While it is clear that the notice 
and consent mechanism for privacy decisions is broken, its adoption as 
the cornerstone of data protection and other regulations means that we 
need to envision and design human-centric solutions that address the 
continuing problems related to consent and control.

We seek submissions of a 3-page position papers outlining an innovative 
approach to or perspective on one of the workshop's key questions, due 
on February 12, AoE. More information (including key questions) and 
submission details available here:

During the workshop, we will co-create a set of future personas and 
design provocations that take us beyond the limits of conventional 
consent and control mechanisms (exciting!).

This one-day workshop will take place in conjunction with the ACM CHI 
conference in the week of 13.-17.4.2026 in Barcelona, the exact date is 
not known yet. More information on ACM CHI can be found here:
