Hi Ted,

The purpose of Privacy Finder is to make privacy information more
accessible.  It does that by pulling P3P policies for users and
displays a "privacy meter" of how well that particular site's P3P
policy matches your preferences.  The search engine also provides a
link to a privacy report that provides the user with a summary of that
site's full privacy policy (also based on their P3P settings).
