Abstract—Privacy is a complex social process that will persist in one form or another as a fundamental feature of software engineering. For successful privacy aware engineering, it is critical to guarantee the alignment and compliance among privacy artifacts emerging during software development process. In this paper, we propose a privacy compliance engineering flow in which we investigate the involved necessary privacy artifacts and discuss their alignment, refinement, and compliance verification. Within an exemplary case study, we identify the privacy artifacts introduced in the refinement process and analyze their compliance verification.
