 Privacy and Protection
Example: Protecting participants’ privacy – post in
closed group. Unique case ID given to the participants.

 Data collection over the internet has many potential
benefits.
 Unfortunately, it also has many potential problems.
 However with CAREFUL planning, many issues can be
avoided altogether.
 This type of data-collection remains a decision that the
research must weigh carefully.
