Abstract: Systems and methods for accountless device control are disclosed. For example, a smart device may be acquired and plugged in for use. The smart device may gain network connectivity and a system associated with the smart device may request enablement of an application for use with the smart device from another system, such as a system associated with a voice-enabled device. The other system may generate and send user identifier data, and the system associated with the smart device may generate a shadow account in association with the user identifier data. The application may be enabled in association with the shadow account, and access credentials may be exchanged to securely send and receive information associated with operation of the access device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for device control by a natural language processing system are disclosed. A user may desire to utilize a voice-enabled device to associate an accessory device with a hub device without having to utilize third-party software associated with the accessory device and/or the hub device. The user may provide a user utterance to associate the accessory device with the hub device. Audio data corresponding to the user utterance may be analyzed and utilized to generate and send directive data to a third-party remote system to transition the hub device to a join mode. Upon association completion, audio may be output confirming that the association has been established successfully.

Abstract: Systems and methods for secure information exchange are disclosed. During setup of an accessory device in association with a voice-enabled device, token data may be generated and signed using a private encryption key by the accessory device. An accessory-device system associated with the accessory device may send a request for account identification including the token data to a remote system associated with the voice-enabled device. The remote system may determine if an application associated with the accessory-device system is enabled, and if enabled, may send the account identification in an encrypted format to the accessory-device system.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamic segmentation of members and further rewarding or transmitting one or more promotional notifications to members having an associated member profile, wherein the member profile includes one or more updatable attributes, the method comprising the steps of retrieving a segmentation rule from a promotion rule stored in a database based on triggering of a promotion or notification; dynamically assessing the qualification of members based on matching corresponding predetermined value of one or more attributes of the segmentation rule with the value of the updatable attribute of the member profile based on a rule criteria of the segmentation rule; rewarding or notifying based on a promotion or notification rule.
