Security consulting firm Interhack Corp. has accused Truste, a San Jose, Calif.-based privacy advocacy group, of violating its own privacy policy by tracking the personal information of visitors to its Web site and sharing that data with third parties. Curtin said that the use of cookies will stay active until the browser is restarted. Cookies are small bits of data that are shared between a World Wide Web server and a user's browser.
Cookies give the server information about a user's identity, preferences or past behavior.
If Interhack is right, then there will be a certain course of action, but there will be another course of action if Interhack is wrong. Steer declined to elaborate further on those courses of action. We don't know anyone's personal information. And all the information we do collect, we dump. Inc. All rights reserved.
