You see, in data collection, the researcher might be biased in his data collection. So to be unbiased, you have to remove anything which might effect the data. Sometimes, in experiments, you do this by repeating the experiment ot remove the randomness of the factors.

In external data collection, maybe they collect from a certain group which may not be representative of the entire population. Taht would be biased.
