ON ETHICAL AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF DATA MINING

Data mining technology allows large volumes of data to be exploited for discovering previously unknown,possibly useful knowledge. The speed and extent of developments in information technologies have increased the power and potential of data mining.However, the privacy of personally sensitive information is not respected generally in the process,which creates ethical and legal problems in some applications.In this study,the ethical and legal aspects of data mining are explored and a critical evaluation of the protective methods is presented
