\tEvery computer that connects to the Internet is assigned an IP (Internet Protocol) address. This is very similar to a telephone number in many ways. By tracking your IP address, online snoops are able to track the sites you visit and build profiles on your Internet activities. Anonymizer protects your privacy and personal information (credit card numbers, financial transactions, etc.) from cyber crime and abuse by redirecting your Web traffic through its secure servers; thus your IP address is kept private and your online identity is protected.\t<\/p>\n
\tOur best selling consumer privacy solution, Anonymous Surfing\u2122<\/a> protects you by keeping your IP address (and your identity) private. Anonymous Surfing<\/a> works by creating an encrypted path between your computer and the Internet to shield you from even the most sophisticated methods of online spying, phishing, and pharming. It’s simple to setup and use, and it works silently in the background, without slowing down your Internet connection.\t<\/p>\n Our latest product, Anonymizer Nyms\u2122<\/a>, protects your personal email address and your identity with disposable, anonymous email addresses. Nyms allows you to create unique alias email addresses for every Web site you visit so you can shop online, track stock prices, join online newsgroups, and more without the fear of spam flooding your inbox. Each alias email is automatically forwarded to your primary email so you don’t need to check multiple email accounts.<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tAnonymizer also offers custom enterprise-class solutions for companies of all sizes, from small business to government agencies. The cost of these solutions varies by individual customer requirements.\t<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tSelect the “Anonymous Surfing”<\/em> module on the left side of the Dashboard, where you would switch the service to the “ON” position.\t<\/p>\n \tTo the right you will see two IP addresses displayed. The two different IP addresses indicate that you are accessing the Web through our proxy server, your information is being encrypted and the IP address is being changed.\t<\/p>\n \tYou can double check that your IP address is not revealed by going to www.ipchicken.com<\/a>.\t<\/p>\n \tVisit fsqsvctj.shop<\/a> and download a free trial<\/a> of our four top products: Anonymous Surfing<\/a>, Nyms<\/a>, Anti-Spyware<\/a>, and Digital Shredder<\/a>.\t<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tWeb Analytic tools make it possible for any Web administrator to identify specific IP addresses, domain names, and geographic locations of visitors and to follow visitor activity; analyzing individual surfing behavior, tracking the pages within the site that are most frequently accessed, and the files that are downloaded, etc. It is this aspect of functionality that can in turn be used to build a detailed psychographic profile based on your purchases and online tracks.<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tAnyone who surfs the Internet should be concerned about the amount of information that’s shared as well as how long it’s kept. Your trail of information accumulates with data points giving a wide range of personal information to those seeking it. These data points are often sold to marketing companies who will then use your personal information to market to you with annoying pop-ups, spam emails and even worse, for example, possibly sell the information to health insurance companies who track what health information you’ve been seeking, then use it against you by increasing your rates.\t<\/p>\n \tIn 2006 AOL released “anonymized” search logs for 650,000 users. There was no “identifying information” attached to individual searches, but all searches done by the same person could be grouped together under some “anonymous” identifier. A reporter at the New York Times was able to identify one of those people in just a few days based on her searches. \t<\/p>\n \tThe Internet’s top search engines state in their privacy policies that they automatically record information on user searches, including Internet browser and language, computer IP addresses, unique cookie information, and the URL of the page requested. Just as you wouldn’t want anyone listening in on your private conversations, you don’t want anyone watching your every move on the Internet. This simply underscores the importance of protecting your identity when on the Internet.<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tLegislation is key for setting baseline expectations of privacy, and minimum privacy standards. It is also required to protect privacy in situations where an individual is required to hand over personal information, such as banking, medical, and online purchases. However, legislation is mainly national or local, while the Internet is by its nature international. Also, enforcement of legislation is difficult, and unlikely to be pursued against small time violators. It is often difficult to tell who has gathered information that is later used by a third party. And lastly, restrictions on the use of publicly visible information have serious first amendment implications. <\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a> <\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a> <\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a> <\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n \tAnonymizer has a proven track record in Enterprise applications and is currently servicing a variety of industries including: \t<\/p>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n Back to Top<\/a><\/dd>\n\n
