In an increasingly digitally developing world – a world where most aspects of modern life are directly or indirectly related to digital technology – the relationship between data, privacy, and trust has become a focal point of contemporary debate. The enormous amount of data generated, partly due to our constant preoccupation with social media and making transactions online, has increased the demand for online security and assurance that being on the internet does not signify total exposure. The lack of such guarantee is shaking the foundations of social and digital trust. Thus, it is imperative that we delve into the intricate dynamics and interdependencies that exist within this framework, and explore the challenges and opportunities posed by the rapid development of digital technologies. By examining the multifaceted aspects of data collection, storage, and utilization, we can pinpoint the consequences this signals for privacy and trust within social systems. The delicate balance lies within taking into account the financial, political, legal, ethical, and finally societal dimensions surrounding data governance without losing focus of the ultimate goal: establishing user trust and maintaining social cohesion.
