Abstract

This paper explores digital privacy and its related concept of personal data economy as perceived by consumers. Online personal data sharing, data protection, and ethics are investigated, and a survey was designed and conducted to gather opinions, primarily from university students, on the aforementioned topics. Research findings re-reinforce the significance of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) towards data protection but also urge that further regulation and transparency are required. Digital privacy education should become part of security awareness initiatives, aiming to cultivate an ecosystem among all involved parties (consumers\users, businesses, governments, third parties, etc.) to share, manage, and store personal data in a responsible, lawful, and ethical manner.
