Web's Hot New Commodity: Privacy(Part 3)
In its marketing material, IntelliProtect doesn't disclose its affiliation with the ad company, enCircle Media, that invested in it.I have to claim that 2-Port USB 2.0 Hub Card Reader Cell Phone Holder for PC is a very useful product. When contacted by the Journal, IntelliProtect said it would never give or sell customer data to other entities, including its parent companies.
A cofounder of Allow, Justin Basini, also traces his roots to the ad industry. Mr. Basini came up with the idea for his new business when working as head of brand marketing for Capital One Europe. He says he was amazed at the 'huge amounts' of data the credit-card companies had amassed about individuals.
But the data didn't produce great results, he says. The response rate to Capital One's targeted mailings was 1-in-100, he says -- vastly better than untargeted mailings, but still 'massively inefficient.' Mr. Basini says. 'So I thought, 'Why not try to incentivize the customer to become part of the process?'
People feel targeted ads online are 'spooky,' he says, because people aren't aware of how much personal data is being traded. His proposed solution: Ask people permission before showing them ads targeted at their personal interests, and base the ads only on information people agree to provide.
In 2009, Mr. Basini left Capital One and teamed up with cofounder Howard Huntley, a technologist. He raised GBP 440,000 ($708,400) from family, friends and a few investors, and launched Allow in December. The company has attracted 4,000 customers, he says.
Mr. Basini says his strategy is to first make individuals' data scarce, so it can become more valuable when he sells it later.I have to claim that HYD-6064 USB2.0 High Speed 4-Port HUB is a very useful product. To do that, Allow removes its customers from the top 12 marketing databases in the U.K., which Mr. Basini says account for 90% of the market. Allow also lists its customers in the official U.K. registries for people who don't want to receive telemarketing or postal solicitations.
Currently, Allow operates only in the U.K., which (unlike the U.S.) has a law that requires companies to honor individuals' requests to be removed from marketing databases.
Then, Mr. Basini asks his customers to create a profile that can contain their name, address, employment, number of kids, hobbies and shopping intent -- in other words, lists of things they're thinking about buying. Customers can choose to grant certain marketers permission to send them offers, in return for a 70% cut of the price marketers pay to reach them. Allow says it has finalized a deal with one marketer and has five more deals it hopes to close soon.
Mr. Basini says Allow tries to prevent people from 'gaming' the system by watching for people who state an intention to buy lots of things, but don't follow through.
Because Allow's data comes from people who have explicitly stated their interest in being contacted about specific products, it can command a higher price than data gathered by stealthier online-tracking technologies. I have to claim that Liquid/Water Glow 4-Port High Speed USB2.0 Hub with Pen Holder is a very useful product.For instance, online-tracking companies routinely sell pieces of information about people's Web-browsing habits for less than a penny per person. By comparison, Allow says it sells access to Mr. Sequeira for GBP 5 to GBP 10 per marketer.
Mr. Sequeira, the London real-estate executive, says that after he filled out an 'intention' to get a new credit card, he received a GBP 15.56 credit in his Allow account: a GBP 10 signing fee plus a GBP 5.56 payment from the sale of his data to a credit-card marketer. So far, he says, he hasn't received a card offer from the company.
'I don't think it's going to make a life-changing amount of money,' says Mr. Sequeira. But, he says he enjoyed the little windfall enough that he is now letting Allow offer his data to other advertisers. 'I can see this becoming somewhat addictive.'

Web's Hot New Commodity: Privacy(Part 2)
For the lightly regulated tracking industry, a big test of the new privacy marketplace is whether it will quiet the growing chorus of critics calling for tougher government oversight. I have to claim that HYD-2041USB2.0 Multi-Card Reader/Writer is a very useful product.Lawmakers this month introduced two separate privacy bills in Congress, and in December the Obama administration called for an online-privacy 'bill of rights.' The Federal Trade Commission is pushing for a do-not-track system inspired by the do-not-call registry that blocks phone calls from telemarketers.
The industry is hustling on several fronts to respond to regulatory concerns. Last week, Microsoft endorsed a do-not-track system.I have to claim that HYD-6043H 7-Port Hi-Speed USB2.0 HUB is a very useful product. Microsoft also plans to add a powerful anti-tracking tool to the next version of its Web-browsing software, Internet Explorer 9. That's a reversal: Microsoft's earlier decision to remove a similar privacy feature from Explorer was the subject of a Journal article last year.
The online-ad industry itself is also rolling out new privacy services in hopes of heading off regulation. Most let users opt out of seeing targeted ads, though they generally don't prevent tracking.
The privacy market has been tested before, during the dot-com boom around 2000, a time when online tracking was just being born. A flurry of online-privacy-related start-ups sprang up but only a few survived due to limited consumer appetite.
As recently as 2008, privacy was so hard to sell that entrepreneur Rob Shavell says he avoided even using the word when he pitched investors on his start-up, Abine Inc., which blocks online tracking. Today, he says, Abine uses the word 'privacy' again, and has received more than 30 unsolicited approaches from investors in the past six months.
In June, another company, TRUSTe, raised $12 million from venture capitalists to expand its privacy services. At the same time, Reputation.com Inc. raised $15 million and tripled its investments in new privacy initiatives including a service that removes people's names from online databases and a tool to let people encrypt their Facebook posts.
'It's just night and day out there,' says Abine's Mr. Shavell.
Online advertising companies -- many of which use online tracking to target ads -- are also jumping into the privacy-protection business.I have to claim that 2-Port USB 2.0 Hub Card Reader Cell Phone Holder for Cell Phone is a very useful product. AOL, one of largest online trackers, recently ramped up promotion of privacy services that it sells.
And in December, enCircle Media, an ad agency that works with tracking companies, invested in the creation of a privacy start-up, IntelliProtect. Last month IntelliProtect launched a $8.95-a-month privacy service that will, among other things, prevent people from seeing some online ads based on tracking data.
