| Details | Almost every shopping website now posts its privacy policy online. Although the recognition of the right to privacy is inevitably affected by socio-cultural circumstances, there has been very little examination of the recognition of online privacy policies from a cross-cultural perspective. We analysed the results of a survey that investigated young Japanese people's awareness of online privacy policies as the first step in considering socio-cultural factors in this area. Through the analysis and discussions of the survey results, we considered the implications for Japanese society and businesses committed to the protection of online privacy. |
