However, much less is known about individuals’ stated … Weiterlesen: Yet Another Privacy Paradox? Stated intention and actual willingness for data donations.

To streamline the process of platform selection for data donations, we have created a framework to structure the evaluation of possible DDP-providing platforms. By compiling these insights, this report endeavors to offer orientation in the area of loyalty card data and enable impactful data donation initiatives in the future.

Data donations are a powerful method to enhance research into human behavior, creating new opportunities for validation and measurement. This framework was created for researchers aiming to conduct a data donation study, irrespective of the target domain. It summarizes important considerations and thus, provides a structured approach for platform selection. Leonie Manzke

Bei Datenspenden handelt es sich um die Weitergabe von Daten, um zum Gemeinwohl beizutragen. Sie beschreiben, dass Individuen freiwillig detaillierte, möglicherweise personenbezogene Daten an Dritte (z. B. Forschende oder Nichtregierungsorganisationen) weitergeben und ihre informierte Zustimmung zur Verwendung ihrer Daten für ein Ziel im öffentlichen Interesse geben.

Jede Minute generieren wir eine riesige Menge an Daten, hinterlassen Spuren durch unser digitales Verhalten, z. B. beim Browsen, Einkaufen, Recherchieren und in sozialen Netzwerken. Diese wertvollen Daten werden häufig von Unternehmen zu ihrem kommerziellen Vorteil genutzt und verarbeitet, z. B. für Werbung, Marketing und Produktentwicklung. Was aber, wenn diese Daten in ähnlichem Umfang für … Weiterlesen: Definitionspapier Datenspende

Most recently, contact-tracing apps have been developed to collect contact and health data from individuals to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. In comparison to commercial apps, the adoption of contact-tracing apps involves a unique cost-benefit calculus. In particular, the pro-social motives to engage in data … Weiterlesen: Data Donations for Digital Contact Tracing: Short- and Long-Term Effects of Monetary Incentives
