This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240028752 titled 'END-TO-END PRIVACY ECOSYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system that includes a privacy vault for storing user-associated contents and access permissions for third parties. The access permissions define procurement and utilization policies for the vault contents accessed by the third-party.
- The system can access a user account to recover user-associated contents and store them in the privacy vault.
- When a third-party requests access to identified contents stored in the privacy vault, the system determines if the contents are procurable based on the access permission defined for the third-party.
