Answer:

The examples of unethical breaches to a participant's right to privacy are:

  • Using a consenting participant's name after a focus group is finished
  • Sending unsolicited emails to participants on their birthdays
  • Deleting participants' personal information without permission

The fourth option, making a product from a study available to participants to purchase, is not necessarily a breach of privacy, but it could be a breach of confidentiality if the study data was not anonymized and the participants' personal information was used to create the product.
