Mr. Jaye joined TACODA in April 2007 and has succeeded Curtis Viebranz as its CEO in September of 2007. Mr. Jaye was most recently Chairman, CTO and Founder of Permissus, Inc.

Mr. Jaye was CTO of CMGI, Engage's parent until the Engage IPO in July, 1999. He is a recognized industry expert on privacy matters. While with Engage, Mr. Jaye invented the concept of "anonymous profiling" and conceived of and created Engage.Knowledge, a database of actionable anonymous web-wide behavioral profiles. He also patented a system and method for building user profiles and "dual-blind" identification and a method for inferring demographic information of web site visitors. Prior to joining Engage, Mr. Jaye had stints at Fidelity Investments and Epsilon Data Management. He began his career as a Senior Consultant for Andersen Consulting (now, Accenture). He is a graduate of Harvard University with degrees in Astronomy and Astrophysics and Physics.

He also invented "Trust Labels," an IETF Internet Draft which became "P3P Compact Headers." He spent seven years at Engage which he co-founded. While there he served as CTO with broad responsibility for product strategy and delivery and operations. Much of what Engage did in the area of behavioral profiling was a precursor to what we are doing today here at TACODA. |
