[Year 12 IT Apps] Techniques Used to Acquire Data on Websites

Tue Apr 17 09:26:28 EST 2012

Dear colleagues

The key knowledge relates to ways in which customer/client information can be collected by an organisation rather than collecting information about a website. The context for this area of study is databases and how organisations can collect data for these databases via websites. Associated with this process are the security concerns/responsibilities when collecting personal/private information and the legal obligations that organisations have with respect to the data.

Yes, it is ambiguous. It only makes sense when taken to mean that the org is acquiring info from the public using the internet.

I assume it to mean how they get info, eg forums, online surveys, web forms and even the ability to upload files, photos etc

I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

I think I've asked this question in the past, but I'm going to ask again, as I'm still not 100% sure

What does the following key knowledge point mean:

"Techniques used by organisations to acquire data on websites and the reasons for their choice"

Is it related to methods used to collect data from customers? For example having a feedback form or email link on the site to allow a customer to input data

Or is it related to collecting statistics regarding a website? E.g. Google analytics

Or is it both???
