Abstract

We investigate legal concerns in privacy calculus, which are currently not given enough attention in privacy research. Legal aspects can lead to liability issues in various information systems scenarios such as bring your own device (BYOD) in the workplace. To analyze the impact of legal concerns in privacy calculus, we conducted a quantitative study by surveying 542 employees from three countries: United States, Germany, and South Korea. Building on our research model to test our hypothesized relationships, structural equation modeling was employed. Our findings provide recommendations for multinational organizations to mitigate legal concerns in privacy calculus. A comparison of the three countries reveals that employees from the United States and South Korea place greater emphasis on legal concerns compared to German employees. We develop an understanding of employees’ concerns with liability issues, and how these affect their privacy calculus in a BYOD context.
