Your Online Privacy Scorecard Health Information Websites (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Your privacy and being online are fundamentally out of balance.

When you use smart phones, tablets, computers, TVs, and smart speakers you are under technology surveillance.

Vendors all over the world collect personal information about you and your behavior without your explicit consent.

The context for collection gets lost. Personal information is absorbed into reputation profiles, bought and sold by data brokers - which you have no control over.

Decisions are made automatically that impact not just the ads you see, but offers and prices for goods and services, eligibility for loans, approval for insurance, and selection for employment.

You have the right to be left alone and control how you present yourself to the world.

Your Online Privacy Scorecard Health Information Websites is the first comprehensive evaluation of how well health information websites meet their business obligations to protect personal information.

The scorecard explains how personal information including health interests collected during website visits searching for health information is used to build extensive reputation profiles by a worldwide network of data brokers and advertising technology vendors. Some health information websites invite more than 150 third parties located all over the world including Russia to collect and use detailed information about each website visit.

Nine of the top10 most visited health information websites do not adequately protect the privacy of personal information. Detailed scorecards for National Institutes of Health, Mercola, Mayo Clinic, Drugscom, WebMD, MedicineNet, Healthgrades, EverydayHealth, Healthcom and Healthline.
