Automated decisioning system for acceptability of user privacy notices and controls on a user interface

A computing system for determining whether a web resource complies with a policy for displaying an informational notice, the computing system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to
• obtain a Document Object Model (DOM) representation of the web resource, the DOM representation specifying a hierarchy of pages and including instructions for displaying content elements,
• traverse the DOM representation of the web resource to determine whether the web resource includes the informational notice, at least by calculating a likelihood that a content element corresponds to the informational notice based on one or more keywords associated with the informational notice,
• in response to determining that the content element corresponds to the informational notice, determine a set of visual parameters of the content element and determine whether the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with a visibility metric, and
• display information indicating compliance or noncompliance with the visibility metric based on the determining of whether the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with the visibility metric, including:
• when determining that the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with the visibility metric, display information indicating compliance with the visibility metric;
• and
• when determining that the set of visual parameters of the content element does not comply with the visibility metric, display information indicating noncompliance with the visibility metric.

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media for determining whether a web resource complies with a policy for displaying an informational notice, the one or more non-transitory, computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing system, cause the one or more processors to:

• obtain a Document Object Model (DOM) representation of the web resource, the DOM representation specifying a hierarchy of pages and including instructions for displaying content elements;
• traverse the DOM representation of the web resource to determine whether the web resource includes the informational notice, at least by calculating a likelihood that a content element corresponds to the informational notice based on one or more keywords associated with the informational notice;
• in response to determining that the content element corresponds to the informational notice, determine a set of visual parameters of the content element and determine whether the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with a visibility metric;
• and
• display information indicating compliance or noncompliance with the visibility metric based on the determining of whether the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with the visibility metric, including:
• when determining that the set of visual parameters of the content element complies with the visibility metric, display information indicating compliance with the visibility metric;
• and
• when determining that the set of visual parameters of the content element does not comply with the visibility metric, display information indicating noncompliance with the visibility metric.
