Abstract

It is very useful for advertisers of banner ads or owners of websites when browsing information such as where on a website an individual is viewing can be collected. However, such browsing information is personal information that is difficult to be collected. Provided are an information display terminal, an information transmission method, and a computer program in which there is a storage for presenting a message indicating that a reward is to be paid if the viewer permits collection of browsing information, and storing an electrical message of permission as evidence when the viewer gives permission. When attributes (age, gender, occupation, type of industry, family structure etc.) of a viewer are collected under agreement in obtaining permission of collection of information from the viewer and stored in a user information storage, the browsing information becomes higher value-added.
