Abstract: Techniques are provided for managing sharing of data for users. An authorization is received from a user to share user data between a plurality of organizations. The user data is stored in one or more isolated databases. A medical records data management system generates a shared database comprising content including the user data to provide access to the user data to the plurality of organizations. The shared database comprises a data structure for associating the user data an origin of the user data. When revocation by a user to withdraw authorization to share data between the plurality of organizations is received, the content of the shared database is resolved into the one or more isolated databases, and the content is assigned to the isolated database based upon the origin of the user data in the data structure. Access is closed to the shared database.

Abstract: A first embodiment of this invention is a cleaning apparatus for a commercial conveyor belt that is mounted on a conveyor table. The cleaning apparatus is a housing that includes a spraying tube for dispensing a cleaning solution and a novel wiping device. The wiping device is constructed to apply a disposable towel, such as a paper towel, to the conveyor belt to remove the solvent including any contaminants while the conveyor belt is in motion. The used disposable towels are deposited into a waste container thereby requiring very little cleaning maintenance. By a second embodiment the spraying tube is eliminated and the disposable paper towels include a solvent (wet wipes) for removing the contaminants. The cleaning apparatus is preferably mounted on the underside of the conveyor belt next to a crumb tray so that the cashier can easily operate the cleaning apparatus.
