| Summary: | Social network emergence has had a remarkable
impact on how people communicate and share information. It
has increased revenues tremendously. However, it has added
another problem to data confidentiality. This is due to the
advances in communication technology that keep on producing
a better, easier and cheaper way to communicate. However, the
vulnerability somehow depends on the user itself, whether they
care about their information. This paper examines users’
perceptions towards the existence of privacy policy in social
networks. The research is intended to evaluate the extent of
privacy policy awareness among users and the reason for low
level of awareness. It also sought to evaluate other modes of
communicating privacy policy that can be implemented for
better user engagement. |
