Abstract: Providing, to a first user, variable options for viewing reports based on data in a data store, each of the variable options corresponding to an attribute of the data associated with the included users. Responsive to an indication of a selected variable option from the first user, determining that data associated with the first user in the data store does not include a value for an attribute of the data associated with the included users corresponding to the selected variable option. Responsive to a request sent to the first user to provide information concerning a value for the attribute corresponding to the selected variable option, receiving, and storing in association with the first user in the data store, information concerning the value for the attribute corresponding to the selected variable option. Subsequent to receiving the information, providing a report to the first user according to the selected variable option.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a new action request is received by the data manager from any of the plurality of users and stored in the data store. The data manager provides the new action requests to at least some of the plurality of users and, thereafter, receives responses from responsive users. The data manager then stores the responses (optionally, with a time stamp) in the data store in a manner such that the responses are associated with corresponding ones of the responsive users. Additional data about, response from or an identity of a first user of the plurality of users may be authenticated, and information regarding responses to a plurality of instances of the new action request may be provided to one or more users of the plurality of users.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a new action request is received by the data manager from any of the plurality of users and stored in the data store. The data manager provides multiple actions requests to at least some of the plurality of users and, thereafter, receives responses from responsive users. The data manager then stores the responses (optionally, with a time stamp) in the data store in a manner such that the responses are associated with corresponding ones of the responsive users. In response to receiving a request for information regarding the responses, the data manager can generate the requested information, which may comprise aggregated or individual data, and provide such information to a requesting user. The request for information may include geographic boundaries to be used in providing the requested information, which geographic boundaries may correspond to one or more electoral districts.

Abstract: In a communication network comprising a plurality of devices operatively connected to a communication network, a data manager operatively connected to the communication network receives information about a user from a first device, which information comprises user profile data including both personally identifiable information (PII) data and non-personally identifiable information (NPII) data, and user action data regarding actions the user has taken. Additionally, a private key is received from the first device. The user profile data is stored in a user profile data store, whereas user action data and NPII user profile data is stored in a user action data store based on the private key such that it is not linked to an identity of the user or any data in the user data profile store. In an embodiment, storage of the data in the user action data store is based on a one-way transformation of the private key.
