Abstract
Systems and methods for a contextual data platform are provided. According to one embodiment, a HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP) request is generated by a user agent running on an Internet-enabled device. The HTTP request includes multiple HTTP header fields complying with Request for Comments (RFC) 2616. Each of the HTTP header fields includes a name-value pair having a name separated from a value by a colon. The value of the name-value pair of an HTTP header field is set based on a privacy setting or a data sharing setting that was established based on input received from an end user of the Internet-enabled device. A web server is directed by the user agent to return content tailored in accordance with the privacy setting or the data sharing setting by transmitting the HTTP request to the web server.
