Data Privacy, in The SAGE Encyclopedia of Business Ethics and Society by Call Number: Online e-bookISBN: 9781483381527Publication Date: 2018-05-08Data privacy refers to the protection of personally identifiable information. The term is typically used in connection with information collected, used, and disseminated by businesses, the government, and other organizations. A reasonable expectation of privacy exists in that the information is shared with an organization for one purpose; that expectation is met as long as the information is not collected, used, or disseminated—intentionally or otherwise—for any other purpose.
