CLS Seminar: Sensitive Data

Centre for Longitudinal Studies Seminar on ‘Sensitive Data’ – 6 March

This highly topical seminar will explore public and professional perceptions of sensitive data and consider the implications for legislators and surveys and data analysis.  It will also provide a unique opportunity to hear the views of respondents concerning their involvement in long-term research which includes the collection of sensitive data.

The Centre for Longitudinal Studies recently asked an independent research agency, the British Market Research Bureau, to explore how the public understand and define sensitive information.  The speakers will draw on this and other recent research which has gathered data on these and related issues from a number of sources, including: the British public; privacy and data protection experts from a range of countries and disciplines; bloggers; and the subjects of a continuing longitudinal study.
