Müşterinin Gizlilik Davranışları ile İlişkili Faktörlerin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı müşterinin gizlilik algılamaları ve tutumları ile gizlilik davranışları arasındaki ilişkilerin ortaya konulmasıdır. Bu kapsamda Kırıkkale Üniversitesi Keskin Meslek Yüksekokulu öğrencileri ile anket gerçekleştirilmiş ve elde edilen veriler analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları müşterinin gizlilikle ilgili algılama ve doğrudan pazarlama kanallarına ilişkin tutumlarının, müşterinin işletmelere bilgi sağlamama, engelleme ve satın alımda bulunmama gibi davranışlar ile yakından ilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca müşterinin demografik özelliklerine bağlı olarak gizlilik davranışlarında farklılık gözlenmemektedir. İşletmelerin müşterilere ulaşmada ve müşterilerle güven odaklı uzun dönemli ilişkiler geliştirmede, müşterinin gizlilikle ilgili risk algılamaları ve doğrudan pazarlama kanallarına karşı olumsuz tutumlarını göz önünde bulundurması ve iyileştirmesi gerektiği anlaşılmaktadır.
