User modeling and personalization approaches on the Web. Format of the submissions Please upload your submissions via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=websci26 There are two submission formats: Full paper should be between 6 and 10 pages (including references, appendices, etc.). Full papers typically report on mature and completed projects. Short papers should be up to 5 pages (including references, appendices, etc.) and primarily report on high-quality ongoing work that is not mature enough for a full-length publication. All papers should adopt the current ACM SIG Conference proceedings template (acmart.cls). Please submit papers as PDF files using the ACM template, either in Microsoft Word format (available at https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template under “Word Authors”) or with the ACM LaTeX template on the Overleaf platform, which is available at https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machiner…. In particular, please ensure that you are using the two-column version of the appropriate template. All contributions will be judged by the Program Committee by at least three referees based on rigorous peer review standards for quality and fit for the conference. Additionally, each paper will be assigned to a Senior Program Committee member to ensure review quality. WebSci-2026 review is double-blind. Therefore, please anonymize your submission: do not put the author(s )' names or affiliation(s) at the start of the paper, and do not include funding or other acknowledgments in papers submitted for review. References to the authors’ own prior relevant work should be included, but should not specify that this is the authors’ own work. It is up to the authors’ discretion how much to further modify the body of the paper to preserve anonymity. The requirement for anonymity does not extend outside the review process, e.g., the authors can decide how widely to distribute their papers over the Internet. Even in cases where the author’s identity is known to a reviewer, the double-blind process will serve as a symbolic reminder of the importance of evaluating the submitted work on its own merits without regard to the author’s reputation. Authors who wish to opt out of publication proceedings will be given this option upon acceptance. This will encourage the participation of researchers from the social sciences who prefer to publish their work as journal articles. All authors of accepted papers (including those who opt out of proceedings) are expected to present their work at the conference. ACM Publication Policies 1. By submitting your article to an ACM Publication, you acknowledge that you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies, including ACM’s new Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects<https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-particip…>. Alleged violations of this policy or any ACM Publications Policy will be investigated by ACM and may result in a full retraction of your paper, in addition to other potential penalties, as per ACM Publications Policy. 2. Please ensure that you and your co-authors obtain an ORCID ID<https://orcid.org/register> to complete the publishing process for your accepted paper. ACM has been involved in ORCID from the start, and we have recently made a commitment to collect ORCID IDs from all of our published authors<https://authors.acm.org/author-resources/orcid-faqs>. The collection process started in 2022 and will be a requirement. We are committed to improving author discoverability, ensuring proper attribution, and contributing to ongoing community efforts around name normalization; your ORCID ID will help in these efforts. 3. For guidelines on the use of generative AI tools, please refer to https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/frequently-asked-questions Important update on ACM's new open access publishing model for 2026 ACM Conferences! Starting January 1, 2026, ACM will fully transition to Open Access. All ACM publications, including those from ACM-sponsored conferences, will be 100% Open Access (https://www.acm.org/publications/openaccess). Authors will have two primary options for publishing Open Access articles with ACM: the ACM Open institutional model or by paying Article Processing Charges (APCs). With over 1,800 institutions already part of ACM Open, the majority of ACM-sponsored conference papers will not require APCs from authors or conferences (currently, around 70-75%). Authors from institutions not participating in ACM Open must pay an APC to publish their papers, unless they qualify for a financial or discretionary waiver. To find out whether an APC applies to your article, please consult the list of participating institutions<https://libraries.acm.org/acmopen/open-participants> in ACM Open and review the APC Waivers and Discounts Policy<https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/policy-on-open-access-apc-waivers…>. Remember that waivers are rare and are granted based on specific criteria set by ACM. Understanding that this change could present financial challenges, ACM has approved a temporary subsidy for 2026 to ease the transition and allow more time for institutions to join ACM Open. The subsidy will offer: $250 APC for ACM/SIG members $350 for non-members This represents a 65% discount<https://www.acm.org/publications/openaccess>, funded directly by ACM. Authors are encouraged to help advocate for their institutions to join ACM Open during this transition period. You can find an FAQ here: <https://www.acm.org/publications/open-access-model-for-acm-and-sig-sponsore…> Open Access Model for ACM and SIG Sponsored Conferences: Frequently Asked Questions<https://www.acm.org/publications/open-access-model-for-acm-and-sig-sponsore…>, and more information here: <https://www.acm.org/publications/openaccess> Open Access Publication & ACM<https://www.acm.org/publications/openaccess> Program Committee Chairs: Gianluca Demartini (The University of Queensland, Australia) Stefan Dietze (Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf & GESIS, Germany) Jen Golbeck (University of Maryland, USA) For any questions and queries regarding the paper submission, please contact the chairs at websci26(a)easychair.org<mailto:websci26@easychair.org>. <https://t63605f96.emailsys1a.net/91/8138/3f626b8c5a/subscribe/form.html?_g=…>
