When Digital Marketing and Privacy Meet Something Must Give
NYC area digital marketing, IT, and data governance expert discusses the potential conflict between digital marketing and privacy concerns--in a new article from eMazzanti Technologies.
HOBOKEN, N.J., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A NYC area digital marketing, IT, and data governance expert discusses how digital marketing practices and privacy concerns might be reconciled in a new article on the eMazzanti Technologies website. Citing Amazon as the standard of customer data-driven marketing, the author points out that modern digital marketing runs on data.
She then asks, "How much data is too much?" giving real-life examples of privacy concerns. She briefly reviews where privacy law and consumer sentiment are headed. Then she concludes by suggesting data transparency and consumer control of the individual's data provide a way to satisfy both digital marketers and privacy concerns.
"Digital marketers track your every move and serve up what they think you are going to buy based on your online behavior," stated Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies. "At some point the question becomes how will digital marketing and privacy be reconciled."
Below are a few excerpts from the article, "When Digital Marketing and Privacy Meet Something Must Give."
How much data is too much?
"Whether online marketers can process, store, and protect all the data they gather is one question. Does all that data impact my life in ways that I would not choose is quite another. Consider these real-life examples of digital marketing surprises, head scratchers, and concerns:"
- "Amazon knew we were pregnant before we did. Somehow, Amazon's data algorithms deduced from a shopper's online browsing that they were pregnant and began suggesting pregnancy and baby products."
- "I just said X and look at this ad that popped up on my phone. After hearing that repeatedly from his wife, at least one consumer is convinced that Siri is listening all the time and acting on what it hears."
Between digital marketing and privacy, what will give?
"Amazon wants to know everything about you. Yet, in our hyper-critical society, people are feeling more guarded about sharing personal information, even shopping history. Working out what data can be collected and how it can be used is sure to be a battle."
