Announces Technology to Protect Online Privacy InterOmni Wallet will Both Protect Consumer Privacy and Allow Consumers to Benefit From Selling Some or All of Their Data DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 19, 1999-- InterOmni Services Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TV Communications Network Inc. (OTC BB: TVCN), Tuesday announced that it is developing the InterOmni Wallet(tm), a digital software profile system that allows consumers to control, own and protect their personal profile data from Web sites and marketers. The InterOmni Wallet software will store a consumer's personal data profile including the consumer's medical and financial records, purchasing behavior and demographic data. The InterOmni Wallet will be able to track Web surfing to determine tastes and preferences for TV shows, movies, music, books, magazines, and newspapers. In addition, the InterOmni Wallet will be able to record every interaction with an electronic device. Protected with strong encryption, the InterOmni Wallet will permit only the owner to have unrestricted access to this sensitive data. The development of the InterOmni Wallet will coincide with increased spending for online advertising that Forrester Research forecasts will reach $15 billion by 2003, with Internet commerce sales reaching as high as $3.2 trillion in the same period. But, along with this growth in online advertising and Internet commerce comes growing concerns over online consumer privacy. ''We believe that true privacy exists when an individual has complete control over the flow of their personal data,'' said Jad Duwaik, President of InterOmni Services. ''The InterOmni Wallet will give this control back to the individual and allow them to profit from sharing some or all of their data or to benefit from the privacy created by completely closing access to advertisers.'' InterOmni Services expects to launch the free InterOmni Wallet from its Web site (www.InterOmni.com) by the fourth quarter of 1999. The InterOmni Wallet will follow and enforce the Federal Trade Commission's Fair Information Principles. InterOmni Services and its sister company, Planet Internet Corp., are wholly owned subsidiaries of TV Communications Network (TVCN), a publicly owned company since 1987. InterOmni is located at 910 16th Street, Suite 801, Denver, Colo., 80202. InterOmni can be reached by phone at 303/892-1631, by fax at 303/892-1570 and on the Internet at interomni.com .
