Abstract
Location-based services (LBS) determine the location of the user by using one of several technologies for determining position, and then use the location and other information to provide personalized applications and services. However, a user that employs location-based services on a regular basis faces a potential privacy problem, as location data may be gathered to allow for profiling of the user's movements, which might discern personal information, based on places the user visits regularly or at specific times. Also, the user's personal interests and even health condition may be revealed by the services he uses or his configuration parameters. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
