Summary
The issue of arbitrators and their online identity is one that is rather untapped. The use of new technologies, in particular, mobile devices in combination with new ways of communication via social media networks, has added another dimension to the everlasting hot topic of arbitrators’ independence and impartiality. The arbitrators’ online identity proliferates the transparency of arbitrators’ performance, reputation and profile in general. With the rapidly growing virtual population and accessibilities of the biggest worldwide territory, the Internet, guidance concerning arbitrators’ online behaviour is welcomed. The author puts forward that certain inspirations concerning arbitrators’ online behaviour may be derived from their offline behaviour while applying a nuanced use of social media networks in order to protect arbitrators’ online identity.
