Retailers Are Checking Out Retail/Wi-Fi Analytics
� RWA calculates times, locations,MAC addresses of devices
– …with Wi-Fi turned on
– …detected within coverage area
of a Wi-Fi network
� By logging MAC address: retailer (or any organization)

retailer (or any organization) can identify and track devices
� RWA applies location and other advanced analytics to the data

RWA Bears a Striking Resemblance to Online Analytics
Retail/Wi-Fi Analytics: SHOPPERS
� How many mobile devices pass by
a store, and how many enter?
� How many total shoppers are in a
store, both on average and at
specific times?
� How many visit more than once,
and how often do they visit?
Online Analytics: SITE VISITORS
� How many visitors enter a site,
from which referring pages?
� How much traffic is a Web site
receiving? What are its busy and
quiet hours?
� How many unique site visitors?
What is their visit frequency?
8
and how often do they visit?
� How much time do they spend per
visit, and what do they do?
� Which purchases occur when a
given mobile device passes
through a store checkout?
What is their visit frequency?
� What is their visit duration and
level of engagement?
� How many conversions is the site
achieving, with which (and which
types of) visitors?
Stratecast defines the rate at which
customers leave a store, in less time than
would make them likely merchandise
buyers, as The Human Bounce Rate.

Leading RWA Providers, and How They Collect Data
PROVIDER METHOD
� Shoppers have retailer’s mobile app on smartphone
10
� Shoppers log into retailer’s Wi-Fi network
� No action required by shoppers
Other Important RWA Providers
11
RWA is Touching Off Privacy Concerns…
RWA functions similarly to “cookies”
on the Web: it allows commercial
interests to instantly access personally
identifiable information (PII)
about shoppers.

� By triangulating MAC addresses against point of sale (POS) data, retailers can find out exactly who shoppers are
� Even if users/shoppers do remain anonymous, as RWA providers and other advocates claim…
– RWA can help retailers develop extremely detailed
profiles about shoppers
– This can support highly intrusive marketing behavior
…and Action by Government and Watchdog Groups
� Future of Privacy Forum (FPF)– Think tank led by Internet privacy experts
Jules Polonetsky and Christopher Wolf
– Seeks to advance responsible data practices
� Wireless Registry
– Do Not Call Registry in the U.S.: telemarketing
– Wireless Registry: RWA. (Protect consumers from
retailers tracking/using personal and behavioral data)

retailers tracking/using personal and behavioral data)
� Mobile Location Analytics Code of Conduct
– Sets industry-wide standard for protecting
privacy re: mobile device data
– Defines rules of engagement for retailers/providers
– Key contributors: FPF, U.S. Congress
(Sen. Chuck Schumer), RWA providers
� Some providers getting ahead of the curve:
opt-outs, in-store notices
Stratecast: THE LAST WORD
� Retailers and RWA providers: respect shoppers; respect PII
HOWEVER…
� Focusing privacy concerns solely on bricks-and-mortar retailers is naïve: every move consumers make on an e-tailer’s site is tracked/analyzed/leveraged for some commercial purpose
� Proven for 100 years: consumers more than willing to be inconvenienced or give away private info in exchange for value
14
inconvenienced or give away private info in exchange for value– Put up with commercials in exchange for entertainment: radio-TV-cinema-video
– Any consumer who has ever submitted personal information on a Web site, or
filled out a card for a raffle
� Retailers may do a better job serving customers if they can collect and crunch Big Data to figure out what customers want
� Retailers should turn a negative into a positive:– Build RWA into promotional strategies
– Shoppers who do not opt out of monitoring for RWA purposes get access to
DEALS and CONTENT no one else receives
