Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for determining an action or recommendation in response to a request for information on an individual. A user may provide preferences and authentication data for responding to these requests. Historical information on an individual's typical response to such requests can also be used to determine the appropriate response. A community of other individuals that share a characteristic with the individual may be assessed for preferences and authentication. Information related to the requester requesting the data may also be used. An alert may then be generated and provided to the individual based on retrieved contact information associated with the individual.
