Abstract
In this work, we propose the first framework for integrating Differential
Privacy (DP) and Contextual Integrity (CI). DP is a property of an algorithm
that injects statistical noise to obscure information about individuals
represented within a database. CI defines privacy as information flow that is
appropriate to social context. Analyzed together, these paradigms outline two
dimensions on which to analyze privacy of information flows: descriptive and
normative properties. We show that our new integrated framework provides
benefits to both CI and DP that cannot be attained when each definition is
considered in isolation: it enables contextually-guided tuning of the epsilon
parameter in DP, and it enables CI to be applied to a broader set of
information flows occurring in real-world systems, such as those involving PETs
and machine learning. We conclude with a case study based on the use of DP in
the U.S. Census Bureau.
