Kontexto Makes Major Enhancement to its Online Privacy Service
Company enhances its Tagcert(TM) online privacy service to offer instant
tracking tag and cookie audits for companies impacted by the EU Cookie
Directive.
Toronto, Ontario (26 March 2012) - Sargas Capital (2FG:F),-- Sargas
Capital announces development for portfolio company, Kontexto, a high
growth leader in real time data collection and analysis for media
organizations. Kontexto has announced that it has made a major enhancement
to its Tagcert(TM) online privacy service in order to offer the world's
first instant tracking tag and cookie auditing service delivered as a web
service and paid for online.
Sargas Capital, a growth equity investor, has an agreement in place to
purchase majority control of Kontexto.
Tagcert(TM) was launched in September 2011 as an online privacy solution to
help businesses accelerate their readiness to comply with the 'EU Cookie
Directive.' The directive requires any website in the European Union to
obtain prior informed consent before they can store or access information
on a consumer's computer via technologies such as browser cookies. The
United Kingdom has declared May 25, 2012 as the deadline for companies to
begin complying with the law, and the rest of the European Union is
expected to follow suit thereafter.
The necessary first step towards compliance for businesses operating in the
EU is to perform a tracking tag and cookie audit on their websites.
Tagcert(TM) makes this process instant, reliable and easy for businesses of
all sizes.
Sargas management expects the current growth for Tagcert(TM) to continue
accelerating as more and more companies adopt the Tagcert(TM) solution as
part of their ongoing regulatory compliance initiatives.
