• USAGE DATA
  
  Data about where an individual goes and how much time is spent at a specific site. This is particularly useful for advertisers, whose payments are based on how many times the Web page containing their advertisement is viewed. Also, online services such as America Online must track a user's sign-on and sign-off times for billing purposes.
