More Information
Summary:Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating the anonymization of unique entity information when transmitting data to services. A content server stores data in association with entity identifiers, each entity identifier represents an entity of the content server. The content server may send anonymized responses to requests for data from multiple services. The anonymized responses comprise the data requested in association with anonymous entity identifiers as opposed to the entity identifiers. Each anonymous identifier represents an entity associated with the data requested. The requesting services may each receive a different anonymous identifier representing a single entity.
