Abstract: Systems and methods for managing information and access to information in an information management system comprising an ID control center, at least one owner terminal, at least one third-party terminal, and a network linking the ID control center and the terminals. The present invention provides four types of ID management methods and systems. Service type 1 enables an ID holder to upload, store, and edit the information assigned to the ID via an ID control center. Service type 2 enables an information requester to access the information assigned to an ID with the permission of the ID holder. Service type 3 enables an ID holder to utilize the information assigned to the ID to obtain products and/or services from a third party via an ID control center. Finally, service type 4 enables an ID holder to place an order for a third party's products and/or services to be delivered to another ID holder, using the second ID holder's ID information and with the second ID holder's permission.
