Culnan Slade Professor of Management & IT Bentley College [email protected] Sixth National HIPAA Summit – March 27, 2003 Game Plan • Consumers on privacy notices – What’s wrong with traditional notices? • Using health information for “marketing” – Avoiding a privacy disaster – case studies What Consumers Really Want to Know • If and how information is used for marketing (53% “very important”) • If information shared with other companies (68% very important) • How they can opt out (67% very important) Source: PLI Privacy Notices Research, 2001, available at www.ftc.gov (GLBA “Get Noticed” workshop) Bottom Line on Long Notices 77% say a longer privacy policy makes it too confusing to understand how my personal information would be collected and used Source: PLI Privacy Notices Research, 2001 Why People Don’t Read Current Privacy Notices • Too Long “How about the Privacy Notices for Dummies version?” • Too legalistic and hard to understand “Get real, no one in their right mind WANTS to read that mumbo jumbo verbiage” • Lack of time and interest “Same boilerplate over and over..if you’ve read one, you’ve read them all” Source: Culnan-Milne Survey on Consumers & Online Privacy Notices & PLI Privacy Notices Research, available at www.ftc.gov (GLBA “Get Noticed Workshop”, December 2001) Consumers & Marketing • 1993 Harris-Equifax Health Information Survey – How acceptable is it for pharmacists to provide names and addresses of customers using certain medications to pharmaceutical companies for [direct marketing] without first obtaining the individual’s consent? – Total NOT acceptable = 60% • Two case studies – Giant Foods & CVS – Eckerd Drugs See: Zimmerman & Armstrong, “Use of Pharmacies by Drug Makers To Push Pills Raises Privacy Issues, Wall St. Journal, 5/1/02 Bottom Line: Avoiding a Disaster • Don’t surprise people • Perceptions trump reality – Avoid overly legalistic disclosures – Offer choice (even if it’s not required)
