  • Publication number: 20130211876
    Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for the authorization, collection, analysis, reporting, and monetization of personal data collected from heterogeneous external systems and electronic devices. The inventive system designates acting users as either data sellers or data purchasers. Data sellers may authorize the system for collecting personal data associated with accounts they hold across external systems or on digitally-accessible electronic devices. Collected data, as well as analytics and charting based on collected data, is reportable in various forms to the data seller. The inventive system defines a mechanism for allowing sellers direct access for monetizing their personal data. Data purchasers may attempt engaging with data sellers to create a data-based transaction: the seller receives some pre-defined benefit or incentive for participating in the transaction; the purchaser receives access to data, data-based analytics, or some form of digital or physical response from the seller.
