Selecting a Nym

You can create multiple nyms for your assorted online activities. When you have more than one nym, you can easily switch between them at any time. When you select a nym, Freedom® provides the security features associated with that nym.

Security Tip: You should avoid switching from one nym to another when surfing. There exists a risk that information being sent from a website to your computer (while you switch nyms) could associate your nyms together. It is recommended that you close your browser before switching nyms, then re-start the browser.

To select or change a nym:

1.Open the Nym List.

2.Locate the nym name you want to use.

3.Click the desired nym.

The nym becomes active.
