Problems solved by technology

Therefore, each vendor can only partially personalize the services provided to users
Third, users generally do not have control over the data stored by the service provider
In fact, most users do not even have access to the collected data
This data can be misused by unscrupulous service providers
Fourth, data collected for one user may be incorrect or outdated, as information is not automatically disseminated to all service providers; instead, correct information is usually only provided to a selected subset of service provider

Abstract

A customer profile access protocol with flexible access control capabilities is provided. The protocol facilitates secure and privacy enabled access to user profile data. The user profile data may be accessed by clients, such as other users, service providers and system administrators. The user profile data may be used by service providers and system administrators. The user profile data may be used by service providers to customize services provided to users. Permissions that control profile access may be established under user control. The user may specify different permissions for different grains of information within the user profile. For example, a first set of permissions may be associated with the entire user profile whereas a second set of permissions may be associated with a particular field in the user profile. Clients may be grouped such that permissions may be associated with a single group or combinations of groups specified by algebraic set operators.
