Abstract

This paper gives an overview of survey findings from China on central parameters that can influence people’s willingness to share (WTS) personal data. It provides insights into Chinese mentalities with regard to data disclosure on a macro level and thus into the cultural preconditions of information governance. This ‘country report’ is one of several that have been compiled in the interdisciplinary project Vectors of data disclosure – A comparative study of the use of personal data from a legal, cultural studies, and information systems perspective, funded by the Bavarian Institute for Digital Transformation.

Keywords: Culture, China, Data Disclosure, Digitalization, Information Governance, Privacy, Willingness to Share (WTS) Data.
