Prague, 26 October 2011 – The mojeID service, which, allows users to manage their personal information on the internet in one safe place and keep it up to date, is celebrating the first anniversary of its launch. There are already more then 28,000 internet users in the Czech Republic that use their mojeID identity to log on to the Volný.cz freemail service, the Líbímseti.cz community portal, the Úschovna.cz document repository, the Lupa.cz, Měšec.cz or Root.cz internet media and more than 3,000 e-shops. The mojeID service was introduced on 26 October last year by the administrator of the Czech national domain, the CZ.NIC Association.

“The goal was to offer a simple, convenient and safe service that makes it much easier for users to access various websites and, at the same time, gives service providers a benefit in the form of having verified real users. Growing interest in mojeID is proof that the service is gaining more and more users and providers of web services. I believe that its further improvements will attract others who appreciate its indisputable advantages,” says Ondřej Filip, executive director of the CZ.NIC Association, the administrator of the Czech national domain, which has been operating the mojeID service for a year now.

About the mojeID service

MojeID is a service that allows Czech internet users to use one set of identification data (username and password) to log in to different websites and web services. Using mojeID means you do not always have to create a new account and go through long and complicated registration processes over and over again. MojeID can be used for all services whose operators directly support the mojeID service or at least OpenID technology. MojeID is the latest in a series of technologies (DNSSEC, ENUM, etc.) that the CZ.NIC Association, the manager of the Czech national domain, .CZ, has introduced for the needs of the Czech internet community. More information about this service, in operation from 26 October 2010, is available at the internet address www.mojeid.cz.
