NEW RESEARCH - Privacy Made Positive® USA

Data privacy and consumer choice and behaviours across the USA

Our research with 3,000 people across the US indicates that consumers in the US exercise strong selection preferences with reference to privacy, and they look at the whole brand, not just the product and the processing.

Consumers express concerns about how their data is used, that the use of automation affects their trust in a brand and that privacy concerns affect their buying decisions.

Our results reveal that trust with data is based on trust in a brand and consumers are prepared to pay to protect their personal data.

Key aspects of the report
  • Consumers are aware
  • Privacy concerns are widespread
  • Privacy precedes purchasing
  • Privacy adds value
  • Good privacy attracts, poor privacy repels
