A system and method for assessing demographic data accuracy from third
party data vendors is provided. Third party demographic data is compared
to self-reported demographic data; hence compared to data presumed to be
accurate. Analysis is done on the comparison to determine the accuracy of
the data and if bias exists in the results for a particular demographic
population or geographic region. Demographic data from many third parties
can be analyzed in the same way, and the results can be compared to each
other to determine which third party has the most accurate demographic
data elements.
