Our Lives Online: Data privacy among teens in East Asia

Privacy: We spoke with 301 teens in East Asia about their data privacy. Teens demonstrated a spectrum of understanding that had more to do with age and amount of use than socioeconomic status.

What do teens have to say about data privacy, listen here for their advice to corporations, governments, and other teens. Research commissioned by UNICEF EAPRO and funded by the Global Partnership to End Violence Toward Children.
