About WebData Control
Use of the internet is growing every day with the adoption of cloud technologies and the move for many applications to become web based. Also the adoption of multiple devices on the home such as tablets and smart phones means the web browser is the most used application of many people. All this web access brings with it many problems facing business today. A great deal of data is generated from simply browsing a website, from data such as cookies which are downloaded to the computer, to the data generated by web browsers themselves. This data can be responsible for 85% of the size of a user profile and has shown to be the biggest contributor to extended login times. WebData Control has been developed with the enterprise in mind and is the only product available today to truly manage the problem of web data. Although much of this data is beneficial to both the user and the business, the majority of it is for the purpose of third parties who are collecting behavioural data for such purposes as targeted advertising, posing a threat to personal privacy and business security. Configured via Group Policy WebData Control allows the administrator to define what data is to be kept and what is to be removed. Users of WebData Control have reduced their profile storage requirements by 85% and have realised a reduction of login times but up to 90%.

About Avanite Limited
Avanite is a software house based in Warrington, UK. It was founded by Francesco Giarletta and Peter Jones who both have a comprehensive history in the field of virtual environments. With both of them having worked for AppSense, (now Ivanti), they recognised the importance of providing the best user experience. Whilst on a large desktop refresh project they came across a problem without a solution and developed version 1 of their flagship product, WebData Control. Although relatively young Avanite is considered the leader in the management of web data and has a growing global partner network and partnerships with other recognised vendors in the field of virtual computing such as Citrix and Ivanti. To this day the focus remains of helping business to have secure reliable computer systems which in turn makes for happier users.
