Consumers Want Privacy, Data Protection From Brands, Still Love Email

Consumers are willing to trade data for personalized experiences, but such trades come with high expectations for both the experience and the ways the brand might use that data subsequently.
Consumers are much less forgiving about “creepy” ads that rely on a user’s location data, tracking cookies used for retargeting, and ads that match up with conversations held near smart devices.
