Abstract
"Part I of this paper will look at the newest development of the retail experience and suggest a method to understand the privacy concerns as well as suggest a regulatory scheme to protect customers without inhibiting their shopping experience. Part II will provide a background of the three stages of shopping experiences and the evolution of privacy concerns associated with them. Part III will address the current American stance on data collection and privacy law with a particular look at privacy concerns that the eStore is facing. Finally, Part IV will provide guidance on how to deal with these data collection issues in the future and attempt to answer two questions: (i) Does the definition of data collection need to be adjusted? and (ii) Are customers ready to accept the new eStore?"
