Header Introduction: The Best Practice Forum on Data and New Technologies in an Internet Context wants to establish a dialogue on how users' data is collected, analyzed and used, and best practices to ensure that the data is used to bring benefit and not to harm users. COVID-19 has accelerated this debate in various ways, however, several of the concerns pre-date the pandemic and similar challenges exist in different contexts. The BPF has mapped challenges and potential issues that may arise when data is collected and used, and compiled them in a Data and New Technologies Issues Card. The BPF is now looking for case studies and examples of how stakeholders address the challenges that emerge when collecting and using users' data. The case studies should help the BPF with identifying existing practices that contribute to ensuring that users’ data is used in such a way that the users benefit from their data and that their data is not used to harm them. Possible case studies: The BPF is looking for examples of applications (deployed or under development) that use users’ data. The BPF wants to understand what the pursued benefit is for the user(s) whose data is being used, and what measures are being taken to avoid that the collected data may be used to harm the user. In other words, what measures are being taken to address challenges identified on the Data and New Technologies Issues Card . The BPF is looking for examples of frameworks, guidelines and policies that address challenges identified on the Data and New Technologies Issues Card and aim to ensure that users can benefit and are not harmed. The BPF is interested in case studies related as well as unrelated to COVID-19. Instructions: Case studies can be submitted by using the form below, or sending case studies by email to [email protected] . We recommend using the below questions as guidance, but welcome case studies in other formats as well. Case studies will be published on the BPF Data & New Technologies webpage and included in the output report. CALL FOR CASE STUDIES Case study / description Case study 1.1.
