“…Abokhodair et al [41] argue that this is partly a result of the collectivist nature of these societies, in which social norms are often defined and enforced through shared beliefs and practices. It follows from this that individuals who are not part of this culture are likely to have different attitudes towards privacy [42,43]. We would therefore expect the Chinese elements of a population to show different behaviours to Saudi elements, in terms of privacy.…”

Over recent years, social commerce has evolved into a powerful segment of e-commerce, creating new opportunities for brands of all types and sizes. However, if social commerce is to continue to grow and deliver the many benefits it promises, it must address a number of key challenges, including privacy, trust, and ethical concerns. This paper explores the extent to which privacy issues affect the attitudes and behaviours of social media platform (SMP) users towards social commerce, and investigates whether these attitudes and behaviours are a function of cultural context. The approach adopted for the research is a two-stage method, which initially uses semi-structured interviews of social-commerce users to identify their key privacy concerns. These concerns are then used to develop, using the theory of reasoned action (TRA), a structural model that facilitates the formation of hypotheses which relate users’ attitudes to privacy to subsequent behaviour. This model is assessed by analysing the responses to a questionnaire from a large sample of participants. This allows us to evaluate the general accuracy of the model and to compare culturally distinct subgroups (Saudi vs. Chinese) using partial least-squares analysis. Results show good support for all of our hypotheses and indicate that there are clear cultural effects. One of these effects is the inadequacy of privacy policies implemented by SMP providers, regarding culturally specific ethical concerns.

“…This seems reasonable at an intuitive level and is borne out by the evidence, as perceived control of information plays an active role in internet information-sharing behaviours [69][70][71]. Further, users of social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter share information with the sites depending on perceived level of control over its use [72,73].…”

Today, social commerce is one of the most rapidly growing subsectors of e-commerce, creating new opportunities for brands of all types and sizes. However, despite its popularity and potential, social commerce faces significant challenges, including issues of privacy, trust and ethics. This paper sets out to identify key aspects of privacy which influence ongoing user engagement with social commerce, so that social media, and other social commerce, platforms can more effectively address the issue. In particular, the paper seeks to determine the extent to which these aspects of privacy are a function of gender and, therefore, to increase our understanding of the role of gender in determining a user’s likelihood of sustainable engagement with s-commerce. To explore these issues, the study deploys a mixed methodology (semi-structured interviews and questionnaires) to examine the views of a broad demographic of s-commerce users in Saudi Arabia. The results allowed us to identify three distinct aspects of online privacy that significantly influence the likelihood of engaging in s-commerce and also demonstrated that the relative importance of these aspects is a function of gender. The study enhances current understanding of the role of gender in intention to use s-commerce and provides a framework for further research. The findings of the study will be of interest to all parties involved in the design and provision of s-commerce services, including social media platforms.

“…The use of social media or social networks by business organizations for the purpose of information dissemination has been widely studied for many years. Many studied the positive impact of social media (Vakeel & Panigrahi, 2016;Iftikhar & Khan, 2020;Sohaib, 2021;Li, et al, 2022), while some investigated its potential drawback (Le, 2019;Sun et al, 2022).…”
