Tracking Users

#EcomChat on Monday, 30th June 2014 will be on “Tracking Users”, following recent stories around BuzzFeed tracking users and Facebook ‘experimenting’ on 690,000 users.

There will be 3 conversation starter questions & anyone is welcome to join in using the #EcomChat hashtag on Twitter. Here are the 3 questions:

1. Should ecommerce sites be tracking & experimenting on users like BuzzFeed & Facebook seem to?
2. What is bad about what Facebook & BuzzFeed were doing & where should the line be drawn?
3. What policies, processes, or communication should sites put in place to be fair to users around tracking?

Join us at 1pm UK time on Monday and do share this post either on Twitter or via email with anyone you think would be interested.

Thanks, Dan & James.

p.s. If you’re wondering “what is this all about?” there is an about page to explain everything.
