  • Method and apparatus for providing data based on granularity information
    Patent number: 9904797
    Abstract: An approach is provided for providing data based on granularity information. The policy platform determines to act on a request, from an application or a service, for data associated with a device, a user of the device or a combination thereof. Next, the policy platform determines a granularity level for the data based, at least in part, on at least one privacy policy associated with the data, the application, the service, the device, the user of the device or a combination thereof. Then, the policy platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of the data to generate transformed data based, at least in part, on the granularity level.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING UNIQUE IDENTIFIER VALUES FOR APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES
    Publication number: 20120254949
    Abstract: An approach is provided for adapting and regenerating identifiers for use in connection with applications and services available to a device. An identification generation platform receives a request to generate one or more identifiers associated with a device, a user of the device, or a combination thereof. At least one seed value associated with the device, the user of the device, or a combination thereof is determined. The platform then processes at least one seed value to cause, at least in part, a generation of the one or more identifiers.
