People are usually concerned with the privacy of their personal information. However, the problem of privacy is also present when the information is directly linked to people, for example in personal opinions, discussions and decisions. Typically, if this information is indefinitely stored in an organizational memory system, then it may cause privacy problems inside the organization. Privacy is needed for users to feel free enough to express themselves honestly, and consequently, for the collaborative software to succeed. This paper presents a model to incorporate automatic privacy measures in an Organizational Memory System.
