Abstract: There is disclosed apparatus operative to provide intermediary gateway control for access to an item stored on a third party shareable data store, the apparatus operative to receive identification data identifying a first user having share access control to one or more items stored on a third party shareable data store. The apparatus is further operative to establish access rights to the third party shareable data store utilising access rights of the first user for accessing the one or more items on the third party shareable data store; and store the access rights in a first user data structure. Such apparatus provides a technical environment in which access to a shareable data item or items may be controlled by an intermediary using a first user's (sharer's) access credentials.

The apparatus is further operative to establish access rights to the third party shareable data store utilising access rights of the first user for accessing the one or more items on the third party shareable data store; store the access rights in a first user data structure; and to receive restriction information for the first user and to store the restriction information in association with the first user. Such apparatus provides a technical environment in which access to a shareable data item or items may be controlled by an intermediary using a first user's (sharer's) access credentials.
