Abstract
Website and newsletter operators may only have users' email addresses but not their person names. It can be beneficial for such operators to derive additional information about the email address owners so they can improve their services. However, there is no easy way to retrieve owners' information based on only email addresses. The present disclosure provides information such as the owners' names, professional profiles and aggregated statistics with only a list of email addresses as the input.
