Methods and systems for evaluating and rating privacy risks posed by applications intended for deployment on mobile platforms. Validating the“intent”of a mobile platform application vis-à-vis its impact on user privacy, as viewed from an end-user's perspective allows those end-users to make better-informed decisions concerning the downloading, installation and/or operation of mobile platform applications. In making such assessments user preferences can be taken into account. Privacy scores are provided through sales channels for the applications, thereby affording potential users the opportunity to assess whether they wish to incur the associated privacy risk, before purchasing a subject application.
