This $175,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) Project Grant, awarded to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College on April 15, 2024, supports research to examine data privacy issues associated with the use of performance tracking technologies in college athletics. The project applies the contextual integrity privacy framework to analyze how these technologies, often used to collect student-athlete biometric data, may impact data privacy. The research team will conduct interviews and surveys with student-athletes and coaches to identify potential privacy concerns and develop research-driven strategies for adopting these technologies while minimizing privacy harms. The project outcomes aim to improve student-athlete well-being by addressing data privacy challenges around the use of performance tracking technologies in the collegiate athletic context.
