Children's Online Personal Info Privacy Protection Service

摘要

A children's online personal information privacy protection service is disclosed, implemented in one embodiment within a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) of an IMS communication network. The HSS maintains service profiles including child user flags identifying which users are child users; and the service profiles for child users includes items of child user personal information content and access authorization data. The access authorization data is adjustable based on parental consent to allow or disallow access to certain network entities. When queried for information content by a network entity, the HSS consults the child user flag to determine whether the query relates to a child user, and if so, controls access to the information content based on the access authorization data.
