The notion of compact privacy policies has been around at least since P3P if not before. There have also been a number of efforts to develop a set of privacy icons [0][1][2]. These can get quite prescriptive in what they can express, but that could be a benefit. On the far less complex end of the spectrum, apps could just be given a text field in which to declare a small snippet of their policies in human-readable form. If this kind of policy communication is something we decide to pursue, it's probably worth exploring the whole range of options.
