Webanalytics websites, like alexa.com, offer (rough) information about sex, age, education, occupation, city-country of visitors.
Paid services offer more vast and more refined details of such kind of data per each visitor
Where and how are such data collected?
I think it is useless to ask how legal are such services?
I tried some but I am prohibited to create any of the tags I've tried to use with this post (popup doesn't work) so the keywords are:
targeting, tracking, privacy, harvesting, webanalytics, fingerprinting, super-cookie, evercookie, Flash cookie, zombie cookie, HTML5, mobile, Flash, targeting, geo-targeting, advertising, spam, marketing, eCommerce, plugin, browser, store, history stealing, history sniffing, cross-site, self-regenerating cookie, eTAG, targeted advertising, Flash Local Shared Objects, Silverligh Isolated Storage, Web History, Webcache, user data storrage, HTML5 Local Local Storage, Window Name Caching, HTML5 Session Storage, HTML5 Global Storage, HTTP Authentication Caching
