"One thing I would recommend to let people know is what type of data is being collected within this type of activity, for example whether identifying information is collected and ID number, or social security number or credit card information. And also bear in mind that our shopping makes inferences about ourselves possible, it's possible to assume things about a person from the products that they buy and the type of consumerism that they display, so this potentially may be a lot of sensitive information that needs to be protected. It needs to be protected from cyber risks, from hackers, maybe hacking into the data through the company and using it for identity theft or for other harms to people, and also it needs to be very clear what other companies or third parties are getting access to this data and for what purpose."

LEADIN:
While the rise of online shopping may have some experts doubting the longevity of the grocery store, a new Israeli company has found a way to introduce cutting-edge technology while maintaining the classic super market experience.
STORYLINE:
Now even supermarket trolleys have gone smart.
Created by Tracxpoint, a company based in northern Israel the "smart cart" relies on product recognition technology to register grocery store purchases on the spot.
The cart clocks up items as they are put into it and charges customers as they walk out of the store, eliminating lengthy checkout processes.
"The cart is capable to identify visually within less than a second every product you put in and you take out, with that said we have a lot of advertising and promotion we give the customers in real time during his shop, to give him a better shopping experience and a cost effective shopping," says CEO of Tracxpoint, Gidon Moshkovitz.
The company claims that while it has received a boost in interest following the opening of Amazon's cashierless Go stores, its innovation - centring technology in the cart, removes the need for the extensive sensors and ceiling cameras found in Amazon Go shops.
But a big unanswered question is how the company will field privacy concerns about its technology, given the wealth of personal and behavioural data it is collecting about its users and handing over to retailers.
The customers must identify themselves with ID cards before shopping, and the cart tracks and records their movements and preferences in the store, targeting them with advertisements and coupons in order to influence their consumption patterns.
"So here we see statistics every hour, every day, how many customers each hour and how many visits during this and we can also compare right now what's going on in the store, in different periods," says Moshkovitz.
Moshkovitz is pointing to a live heat map of a real grocery store screened at Tracxpoint's headquarters.
"We know that usually after the vegetables this guy goes to the frozen foods (section), so if we want to keep him longer in the store maybe we will send him the coupon to the drinks section so we are sure that after the drinks he will go to the frozen foods (section)," he explains.
Tech privacy expert, Limor Shmerling Magazanik from the Israel Tech Policy Institute says she has concerns about privacy, particularly because she couldn't find a privacy agreement easily accessible to smart cart users.
"This project may gain great value to people, this may be beneficial to them, they might find it convenient, but still there is the issue of privacy when you are dealing with a data centric application. So, in order for consumers to trust this new idea and to be able to use it with confidence it requires transparency, it requires that people know exactly what type of data is being collected about them," she says.  
"One thing I would recommend to let people know is what type of data is being collected within this type of activity, for example whether identifying information is collected and ID number, or social security number or credit card information, and also bear in mind that our shopping makes inferences about ourselves possible, it's possible to assume things about a person from the products that they buy and the type of consumerism that they display, so this potentially may be a lot of sensitive information that needs to be protected. It needs to be protected from cyber risks, from hackers, maybe hacking into the data through the company and using it for identity theft or for other harms to people, and also it needs to be very clear what other companies or third parties are getting access to this data and for what purpose."
Moshkovitz responds "the data belongs 100% to the retailer we do not do or deal with data, we give the retailers that raw data, and our analytics and data mining and they choose what to do with that."
The cart is already in use in 50 stores and is set to premiere in the major Italian supermarket chain, Conad in the coming months, according to Tracxpoint.
