Regulating my article:
Data protection – Data protection is the protection of confidential information, it protects some personal information and where it is stored. Privacy – Privacy is having freedom from the press and publicity, this means it’s a state of which you’re free from public attention and free from being observed or disturbed by other people. Defamation of Character – The defamation of character is when a false statement or a lie is used against a person to give a false assumption of their character or to harm their reputation. This can be achieved through articles,tweets,news reports and many more.
In my interview with a parent, I did not break any of the rules: Accuracy: The information is coming from the parent first hand, therefore the content is accurate. Privacy: I have not given any details on who I have interviewed, all the audience know is that it’s a father of a daughter who uses social media. I have not given away any names or ages. I also did not ask anything personal. Harassment: I got consent from the father to interview him. Confidential Sources: I didn’t give away any confidential information or personal details of who I was interviewing. Discrimination: I did not make a reference towards race,religion, age etc. I branded the daughter as a ‘teen’.
