&
Pages 85-92 | Published online: 01 Feb 2016
 

Abstract

Users struggle to protect personal information while completing transactions requiring a modicum of trust in today's e-business environment. E-businesses argue that they need personal information to tailor user interactions and provide targeted marketing. Users argue that e-business takes too much personal data without their permission. As a result, users have developed mechanisms to protect their personal information. This paper discusses survey results that suggest a relationship between two types of user privacy concerns and how users control personal information.
