Is
Free Internet Access a risk to your online privacy?
When
you sign up for a free ISP, you may be asked some very personal
questions. These questions can include your income, level of education,
the ages of your children, and whether you own your car or your home.
Why do they need this information?
With
the information that you provide when you sign up, a free ISP can create
a profile of the products and services that you are most likely to buy
or use. The creation of this profile allows a free ISP to sell banners
to advertisers tailored to your interests. The advertisers can then
target their ads to people who are more likely to become a customer.
For
example, if you are someone who rents an apartment, a landscaping
company probably isn't interested in paying for an ad to be shown to you
since you are not to likely to need such a service.
The
idea behind such a practice is that displaying information that is more
tailored toward your needs and interests is something that you will find
useful and thus increase your surfing enjoyment.
