Publication number: 20110276638Abstract: The current Invention is a method to combine into a complete solution the following: Biometrics (initially a registered fingerprint scan), a separate and secure network and infrastructure, an email management system and additional email message format options. The solution provides improvements to: 1) sender and recipient identity verification, 2) security and privacy, 3) proof of delivery and 4) effectiveness in communications during the exchange of certified email messages and attachments. Improved effectiveness is communication occurs based on the ability to use any combination of text, audio and visual (video) email message formats in an integrated, coordinated process of communication with another email recipient.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2009Publication date: November 10, 2011Applicant: PRIVACYDATASYSTEMS, LLCInventors: Stephen Errico, Steven Pfrenzinger

Method to record and authenticate a participant's biometric identification of an event via a network
Publication number: 20090021349Abstract: The current invention is a method to improve the integrity or identification theft of content, such as emails, websites, and software, for example, by revealing the identity of the participant. In particular, the method ensures the participant's identity by requiring biometric input unique to the participant, creating a program which converts the biometric information into a unique identifier, for example, and incorporating the unique identifier into content, such as the software, emails, websites, etc. for future reliability. The present invention allows users to know that the participant's identification be biometrically confirmed, if necessary.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 19, 2007Publication date: January 22, 2009Inventors: Stephen Errico, Steven Pfrenzinger -
Publication number: 20070157321Abstract: The current invention is a method to improve the integrity of the internet programs, websites, and software, for example, by revealing the identity of the content provider. In particular, the method ensures the content provider's identity by requiring biometric input unique to the content provider creating a program which converts the biometric information into a unique identification number, for example, and incorporating the unique identification number into internet programs, software, websites, etc. for future reliability. The present invention allows users to know that the content provider's identification be biometrically confirmed, if necessary. It allows the content provider to further protect their intellectual property and to further identify themselves to others to demonstrate their skills.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2006Publication date: July 5, 2007Inventors: Stephen Errico, Steven Pfrenzinger
