The purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the present disclosure more thorough and complete, and to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the scope of the present disclosure.

In the absence of conflict, the various embodiments of the present disclosure and the various features therein may be combined with each other.

As used herein, the term "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

The terms used herein are only used to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are also intended to include the plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that when the terms "comprising" and/or "made of" are used in this specification, the presence of the features, wholes, steps, operations, elements and/or components is specified, but the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, elements, components and/or groups thereof is not excluded.

Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. It will also be understood that terms such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the present disclosure, and will not be interpreted as having an idealized or overly formal meaning unless explicitly defined as such herein.

As a first aspect of the present disclosure, a data processing method is provided. As shown in FIG. 1 , the data processing method includes the following steps S110 to S120 .

In step S110, in response to the data selection instruction, at least one privacy processing policy for the data to be processed is provided, wherein the data to be processed is the data corresponding to the data selection instruction.

In step S120, if it is determined that the data to be processed needs to be privacy processed, the data to be processed is processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy to obtain processed data.

In the data processing method provided by the present disclosure, when it is identified that the data is selected, at least one privacy processing strategy is actively provided to the user. If it is determined that privacy processing is required, the data to be processed is processed according to the privacy processing strategy to obtain processed data, and the processed data can be sent to the data recipient as the data to be sent. The transmitted data has been privacy processed, reducing the risk of user privacy leakage.

In the present disclosure, no special determination is made on how to determine whether to perform privacy processing. In some embodiments, the data processing method may include the following steps between step S110 and step S120: receiving a privacy-related instruction inputted through an input module; parsing the privacy-related instruction; and determining whether to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed according to the parsing result. Process data for privacy protection.

As an optional implementation, the user actively selects the need to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed and actively selects a privacy processing strategy. For example, when the user issues a data selection instruction, a configuration page for the privacy processing strategy is triggered and displayed. The user can select the privacy processing strategy and generate a selection instruction through an input module of the electronic device (for example, a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen). For the electronic device executing the data processing method, after receiving the selection instruction generated by the user through the input module, it is determined that "it is determined that the data to be processed needs to be privacy processed". As another optional implementation, when the user issues a data selection instruction, the electronic device executing the data processing method identifies the data corresponding to the data selection instruction and determines whether privacy processing is required based on the identification result. For example, when the recognition result shows that the data to be processed carries privacy data, it is determined that the data to be processed needs to be privacy processed; at this time, the user does not need to select a privacy processing strategy; as another implementation method, the user can actively choose to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed, that is, the user first actively configures the privacy processing policy page (for example, enters a privacy processing instruction), and then when the user performs a data selection instruction, the electronic device selects a privacy processing strategy that matches the data according to the recognition result of the data. For example, the user can enter a privacy processing instruction through the electronic device, and as long as the electronic device recognizes the privacy processing instruction, it determines that the data to be processed needs to be privacy processed.

As another optional implementation, after step S110, if no instruction of "no need to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed" is received within a predetermined time period, it is determined that "privacy processing is required for the data to be processed".

The predetermined time period may be between 2 seconds and 5 seconds.

As an optional implementation, "data" may be a file. Therefore, the data to be processed may be a file to be processed. The types of user privacy carried in different types of files are different. For example, the user privacy carried in an audio file may be voiceprint information; the user privacy carried in an image file may be location information, biometric information (e.g., iris information, fingerprint information, etc.); the user privacy carried in a video file may be location information, biometric information (e.g., iris information, voiceprint information, fingerprint information, etc.). Accordingly, the privacy processing strategy is selected from at least one of the following privacy processing strategies: corresponding privacy processing policies; privacy processing policies corresponding to audio files; privacy processing policies corresponding to video files; and privacy processing policies corresponding to text files.

The privacy processing strategy corresponding to the image file includes hiding the location information and/or biometric information carried by the image; the privacy processing strategy corresponding to the audio file includes hiding the voiceprint information in the audio; the privacy processing strategy corresponding to the video file includes hiding the location information and/or biometric information in the video; the privacy processing strategy corresponding to the text file includes hiding the personal information in the text. As an optional implementation, the personal information in the text information can be contact information (for example, mobile phone number, email address, ID number).

As described above, the electronic device executing the data processing method can automatically match the corresponding privacy processing strategy for the data corresponding to the data selection instruction. As shown in FIG2 , before processing the data corresponding to the data selection instruction according to the selected privacy processing strategy, the method can also include the following steps S112 to S114.

In step S112, the type of the data to be processed is identified.

In step S114, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the identified type is used as the selected privacy processing policy.

For example, when the to-be-processed file is identified as a picture, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the picture is used as the selected privacy processing policy. In step S120, the location information and/or biometrics in the picture may be hidden. In the present disclosure, there is no particular limitation on how to hide, for example, the location information and/or biometrics may be coded.

For example, when the file to be processed is identified as an audio file, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the audio file is used as the selected privacy processing policy. In step S120, the voiceprint information in the audio file can be hidden. In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to hide it, for example, the voice in the audio can be processed by pitch change.

For example, when the file to be processed is identified as a video file, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the video file is used as the selected privacy processing policy. In step S120, the location information and/or biometric information in the video can be hidden. In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to hide, for example, the voice in the video can be changed in pitch, and the face in the video can be coded.

For example, when the to-be-processed file is identified as a text file, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the text file is used as the selected privacy processing policy. In step S120, the personal information in the text file can be hidden. In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to hide, for example, the personal information in the text file can be deleted or replaced with other characters (for example, X or *).

As an optional implementation, when the file to be processed is a text file, the data to be processed is processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy, including: when there are multiple numbers appearing continuously in the text file and the multiple numbers appearing continuously meet a predetermined format, replacing at least a part of the multiple numbers appearing continuously with specific characters; or deleting at least a part of the multiple numbers appearing continuously; and when there is text in the form of @ character plus website domain name in the text file, replacing at least a part of the characters before the @ character with specific characters; or deleting at least a part of the characters before the @ character.

As an optional implementation, the predetermined format may be any one or more of the following formats: landline number format, mobile phone number format, ID card number format.

The specific character may be “X” or “*”, etc., but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, when the file to be processed is text, the data to be processed is processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy, including: determining whether there are multiple numbers appearing consecutively in the text; if there are multiple numbers appearing consecutively in the text, determining whether the multiple numbers appearing consecutively satisfy a predetermined format; and if the multiple numbers appearing consecutively satisfy the predetermined format, deleting at least a part of the multiple numbers appearing consecutively.

As another optional implementation, the processing of the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy includes: determining whether there is text in the form of the @ character plus the website domain name in the text; and when there is text in the form of the @ character plus the website domain name in the text, replacing at least a part of the characters before the @ character with specific characters.

As described above, the specific character may be “X” or “*”, etc., but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

If the text contains the @ character plus the website domain name, it means that there is an email address in the text. The above processing method can hide the email address in the text.

In some embodiments, the user can set the information to be hidden. When the information to be hidden is matched in the text, the information can be directly hidden.

As an optional implementation, when the file to be processed is an audio file, processing the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy includes: adding a predetermined background noise to the audio file to change the voiceprint information of the audio file.

As an optional implementation, when the file to be processed is a picture file, the privacy processing strategy corresponding to the picture file includes hiding the location information carried by the picture file. At present, electronic devices with camera functions usually have positioning functions, so the pictures taken often carry the location information of the area where the electronic device is located. Accordingly, the processing of the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy includes: extracting the location information carried in the picture file; and deleting the location information.

As an optional implementation, the location information may be longitude and latitude information, and the electronic device can obtain the specific address of the image by matching the longitude and latitude information with some navigation software or map software. In this case, the processing of the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy includes: extracting the longitude and latitude information carried in the image; and deleting the longitude and latitude information.

The image file may also carry biometric information. When the data to be processed is an image file, processing the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy also includes: identifying the biometric information carried in the image file; and modifying the biometric information.

In the present disclosure, there is no particular limitation on how to modify the biometric information. For example, the biometric information may be blurred, coded, or watermarked.

The privacy processing strategy corresponding to the video includes hiding the location information and/or biometric information in the video file. When the data to be processed is a video file, processing the data to be processed according to the selected privacy processing strategy includes: deleting the location information in the video file; and/or modifying the biometric information in the video file.

As described above, the user may determine whether to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed and what processing strategy to adopt to process the data to be processed. Accordingly, providing at least one privacy processing strategy for the data to be processed, as shown in FIG3 , includes the following steps S121 to S123.

In step S121 , multiple privacy processing strategies are displayed.

In step S122, a policy selection instruction is received.

In step S123, the privacy processing policy corresponding to the policy selection instruction is used as the selected privacy processing policy.

In the present disclosure, a “policy selection instruction” is an instruction given by a user via an input device (eg, keyboard, mouse, touch screen).

In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to display multiple privacy processing policies. For example, the privacy processing policies can be displayed in the form of a list. In the present disclosure, the above list can be displayed on the display screen of the electronic device, as shown in FIG5. In order to facilitate user understanding, the list can be marked with "incognito mode", which means that if the user selects incognito mode, the selected files will be privacy processed.

In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to obtain the privacy processing policy. For example, the privacy processing policy can be issued by a server. For another example, the privacy processing policy can be configured by a user. That is, as shown in FIG4 , before providing at least one privacy processing policy for the data to be processed in response to the data selection instruction, the method further includes the following step S102.

In step S102, a plurality of privacy processing policies corresponding to a plurality of file types are preconfigured.

In the present disclosure, whether to perform privacy processing on the data to be processed can be determined by the user.

If the user determines that privacy processing needs to be performed on the data to be processed, then after obtaining the processed data, the data processing method further includes the following step S130.

In step S130, the processed data is used as data to be sent.

In some embodiments, the data processing method further includes the following step S140.

In step S140, when it is determined that the data to be processed does not need to be privacy processed, the data corresponding to the data selection instruction is used as the data to be sent.

It should be pointed out that the original data (or original file) carrying private information is still As an embodiment, when data is sent, it needs to be stored in the electronic device and privacy processing is required.
