# Privacy by Design ## Overview Integrate privacy protections into software architecture from the beginning, not as an afterthought. This skill applies Privacy by Design principles (GDPR Article 25, Cavoukian's framework) when designing databases, APIs, and user flows.

Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
