Who's Watching and What are They Looking At?

When was the last time you waded through a privacy statement? Be honest now. Any site that requires a login has a privacy statement. Some of the data is kept in cookies on your computer and other data is kept and shared offline. At PrivacyChoice you can choose from a list of home pages and find the short version, as well as the long one, concerning your terms with any particular site. Click on a URL from a long list on the left. The right side displays a thumbnail of the home page and four buttons below it to explain the sites privacy policy and what software is being used as well. PrivacyChoice also provides the ability to opt-out of various info gathering online gathering services. For the privacy minded this is a must visit.
