Résumé

The adoption of government-issued health technology services is a timely topic because of the pandemic we face. Analyzing the decision-making of individuals in the context of technologies is of scientific interest because biases can be identified and interpreted. This research analyzes how the privacy paradox is at play in the context of government-issued health technology services. Quantitative research was conducted on Belgian citizens who own a smartphone to analyze the privacy paradox in the context of CovidsafeBE and Coronalert. The results of this research were used to analyze the different hypotheses formulated in our conceptual model. The findings are that the privacy paradox cannot fully be considered for Coronalert, but that some aspects of the paradox influence the adoption of CovidsafeBE.
