A Retrieval Technique of Personal Information in a Web Environment

Since we use internet every day, the internet privacy has become important. We need to find out what kinds of personal information is exposed to the internet and to eliminate the exposed information. However, it is not efficient to search the personal information using only fragmentary clues in web search engines because the ranking results are not relevant to the exposure degree of personal information. In this paper, we introduced a personal information retrieval system and proposed a process to remove private data from the web easily. We also compared our proposed method with previous methods by evaluating the search performance.
