Abstract: An example of an information processing system includes: a terminal system including a hand-held type terminal; and a server. The terminal system acquires first information for evaluating health of a user. The information processing system performs an evaluation regarding health of the user on the basis of the acquired first information. The server transmits, to the terminal system, service data for providing a network service in accordance with the evaluation regarding health of the user. The server stores, in a predefined storage section, privilege information indicating a privilege to be given to the user and regarding the network service and/or the hand-held type terminal. The server updates the privilege information such that a privilege in accordance with a result of the evaluation regarding health of the user is to be given to the user.

Abstract: An example of an information processing system obtains sensor information that includes information related to heart beat and/or pulse of a user, from a sensor which senses biological information of the user in a state where the sensor is not in contact with the user. The sensor is, for example, a Doppler sensor. The information processing system calculates an index indicating a degree of fatigue of the user, based on the sensor information. The index may be calculated by a system on a terminal side, or may be calculated by a system on a server side. The information processing system presents, to the user, information related to the index.

Abstract: An example of a terminal system obtains biological information of a user, and transmits, to a server system, transmission information that includes at least one of the biological information and health information. The server system stores, as storage information, the transmission information received from each terminal system and/or information obtained from the transmission information. Further, the server system stores a condition related to generation of provision information to be provided to the user in order to improve an index obtained from the storage information or an index included in the storage information. The provision information is generated based on the storage information and the condition, and transmitted to a terminal of the user. The server system performs analysis of the transmission information which is related to a plurality of users who have been provided with the provision information and updates the condition based on a result of the analysis.
