Abstract
An Internet related method and process facilitates and streamlines obtaining or purchasing products or information by creating a so-called individualization wallet (IW) which has such components as a repository, which is a database of personal and preference information and related components such as a security controller, an inference engine and a request processor. When one desires to make a purchase all he or she need to do is provide a reference to the repository location where all the preference and personal information is stored and that information is automatically communicated in standardized formats, obviating the need for repeatedly keying personal and preference information.
