Protecting information on the Web
You can protect your private information and files when
browsing the Web by blocking information. For example, you can
prevent your personal information (such as name, address, credit
card numbers, and bank account numbers) from being
transmitted over the Web by adding it to the blocked information
area.
Note:
Privacy Service does not block the transmission of personal
information by secure Web sites (that is, Web sites that use the
https:// protocol), such as banking sites.
