Minitrack: Information Privacy in Firm-Customers and Firm-Employees Relationships

Due Date: March 1, 2019 for Full Papers and Emergent Research Form (ERF) (https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/)

Minitrack Description
Information Privacy is an important research topic with wide implications, not only for businesses but also for regulatory bodies, governments, and the general public. Citizens, consumers, and employees alike are more selective about organizations they can trust in handling their personal data. Even though the contribution to the privacy literature has significantly increased over the last decades, how the above-mentioned challenges (security, regulation and increased public awareness) impact the ways organizations deal with privacy remains to be explored. Additionally, how consumers and employees cope with organizations collecting and using their data is still to be deeply explored. This mini track encourages submissions examining privacy issues within firm-customer and firm-employee relationships and exploring how (mis)management of privacy impacts these relationships. We especially encourage research, conceptual and empirical, building on organization science, ethics, marketing, human resources, and management theories. Topics of interest may include (but are not limited to):

  *   Data protection regulation (e.g. GDPR) implementation challenges and best practices e.g. consumer or employee consent collection
  *   Public perceptions about/attitudes towards data disclosure and information privacy
  *   Employee or Customer data privacy management
  *   Link between corporate social responsibility and privacy management
  *   Consumer or employee formation of trust
  *   Consumer or employee reactions to cyber-attacks or privacy failures
  *   Exploration of the privacy calculus or the privacy paradox paradigms
  *   Exploration of why and how affect can influence privacy-related decision-making
