  • Patent number: 10915938
    Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable providing a user with a procurement context notification. More specifically, a selection of an item for procurement by a user through an e-commerce enabled website is obtained. The item, including a use for the item, is identified. A web pointer to web accessible media provided by a third party source that describes the use for the identified item is then retrieved from a browsing history of the user. A description of this web accessible media is generated based on content from the web accessible media. The description and/or the web pointer are attached to a procurement confirmation document, which is then sent to the user. The confirmation document with the attached description and web pointer can be a physical document for inclusion with a physical package containing the item to be transported to the user.

  • Patent number: 10909195
    Abstract: A computing device includes an interface configured to interface and communicate with a communication system, a memory that stores operational instructions, and processing circuitry operably coupled to the interface and to the memory that is configured to execute the operational instructions to perform various operations. The computing device monitors navigation activity of another computing device with website(s) to generate client navigation history and server navigation history. The computing device also facilitates storage of the client navigation history based on a first blockchain and storage of the server navigation history based on a second blockchain. Based on a request to deliver tailored content from a website to the computing device, the computing device determines whether the client navigation history based on the first blockchain compares favorably to the server navigation history based on the second blockchain and selectively delivers or blocks the tailored content.
