1. A method comprising:
- receiving the web browser click event data from a data collection agent (DCA), as a click-stream, at a data collection server (DCS), to record and provide user on-line activitysynchronizing the recording of web browser click event data at the DCA by obtaining a time stamp from the DCS;
identifying a value of a presentation parameter, wherein the value of the presentation parameter is controllable by the user;
based on the value of the presentation parameter, identifying a frequency of communication; and
sending communications to the user, wherein a content of each communication is identified based on an analysis of the user on-line activity received from the DCA and demographic information of the user, and wherein the communications are sent at the identified frequency.

9. A system comprising:
-
a data collection agent (DCA) that records web browser click events, and transmits a click-stream of the web browser click events to a data collection server (DCS) that resides on a computer, in which the DCS; receives the click-stream of the web browser click events; collects user on-line activity based on the click-stream of the web browser click events; synchronizes the recording of web browser click event data by sending a time stamp to the DCA; and sends communications to the user at a frequency determined in part by a value of a presentation parameter, wherein; a content of the communication is identified based on patterns of user web browsing behavior detected by a rules engine of the DCS and user demographic information; and the value of the presentation parameter may be controlled by the user; and the rules engine of the DCS that detects a pattern of user web browsing behavior from the user on-line activity. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
