  Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described.

[First Embodiment]
First, the configuration of the information update system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of an information update system.

  The information update system 1 according to the first embodiment includes a management server 10 connected to a plurality of member terminals 20-k (k is a natural number) via a network 50 such as the Internet network.

  The information update system 1 according to the first embodiment manages and manages personal information including information on delivery destinations such as addresses of members such as school graduates and members belonging to various groups, organizations, and organizations. Can be updated. In the following, a case where personal information of members belonging to a predetermined organization is managed and updated will be described as an example.

  The management server 10 is an information processing apparatus installed in a management company that manages the information update system 1, for example, and is configured by, for example, a framework or a workstation. On the other hand, each of the plurality of member terminals 20-k is an information communication terminal held by each member, and is configured by, for example, a mobile phone or a smartphone.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of the management server 10.

  The management server 10 includes a display unit 11, an operation unit 12, a printing unit 13, a communication unit 14, a storage unit 15, and a control unit 16. These units are connected to each other via a bus.

  The display unit 11 includes a display device (monitor) such as a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) or an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The display unit 11 displays various images such as an image for operating the management server 10 and an image representing the results of various processes under the control of the control unit 16.

  The operation unit 12 includes, for example, a keyboard, various input buttons, a mouse, and the like. The operation unit 12 is operated by an operator and receives various instruction inputs such as an instruction to output a delivery item.

  The printing unit 13 is configured by a color laser printer, for example. The printing unit 13 prints a delivery item and a two-dimensional code generated in response to the delivery item output instruction. As will be described in detail later, the two-dimensional code is a code that expresses various information readable by the member terminal 20-k by a two-dimensional distribution of a plurality of cells.

  The communication unit 14 includes a communication device such as a NIC (Network Interface Card). The communication unit 14 exchanges data with the member terminal 20-k connected via the network 50 under the control of the control unit 16.

  The storage unit 15 is configured by a storage device such as a hard disk drive, for example, and stores various data necessary for processing executed by the management server 10. In particular, the storage unit 15 includes a member DB (Data Base) 151 and a mobile site DB 152.

  The member DB 151 stores registration information of members who belong to a predetermined group that is subject to update processing by the information update system 1 according to the present embodiment. In addition, the mobile site DB 152 stores mobile site data related to a predetermined organization to which a member whose information is registered in the member DB 151 belongs.

  The mobile site stored in the mobile site DB 152 is a website for providing members with various content menus. For example, if the information stored in the member DB 151 is registration information of rental shop or sports club members, the data of the rental shop or sports club website is stored in the mobile site DB 152. The member can read a two-dimensional code (to be described later) with the member terminal 20-k, access the mobile site, and use the content provided there.

  The control unit 16 includes, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and the like. In the control unit 16, the CPU controls the operation of each unit of the management server 10 by appropriately executing various programs stored in the ROM, the storage unit 15, and the like using the RAM as a work memory.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of data stored in the member DB 151.

  The member DB 151 stores data such as a member's name, member ID (Identification Data), current address, gender, date of birth, unique ID, unique URL (Uniform Resource Locator), and e-mail for each member. The unique ID is an identifier composed of letters, numbers, symbols, and the like, and is an identifier set differently for each member information including the current address so that each member can be specified.

  The unique URL is a URL configured to include a unique ID, and is a designator indicating an address on the network 50 of the mobile site stored in the mobile site DB 152. That is, since the unique URL includes a unique ID, the URL is different for each member associated with each member, but is a URL (so-called personalized URL) that can access the same one mobile site on the network 50.

  When the management server 10 acquires member information such as name, current address, date of birth, etc. to be stored in the member DB 151, the unique server ID and unique URL are set differently for each member, and each member information is supported. In addition, it is stored in the member DB 151. Note that the member DB 151 may store information on other delivery destinations to which delivery items can be delivered, such as a member's whereabouts or work place, instead of the current address.

  When the management server 10 receives a delivery instruction to one of the members whose data is stored in the member DB 151, the management server 10 generates a two-dimensional code including information on the unique URL set in the member information. The two-dimensional code is a code in a display format that can have information in two directions, such as a vertical direction and a horizontal direction, such as a QR (Quick Response) code (registered trademark).

  FIG. 4A is a plan view showing an example of a two-dimensional code. On the other hand, FIG.4 (b) is a top view which shows an example of the two-dimensional code with a logo.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, the two-dimensional code 2 includes three positioning symbols 3a, 3b, and 3c obtained by combining squares having a specific ratio, and a plurality of symbols are provided between the positioning symbols 3a, 3b, and 3c. Square cells are arranged in a matrix. In the two-dimensional code 2, various types of information are expressed by a distribution pattern of cells having a predetermined lightness (black in this example) and cells having a predetermined lightness (white in this example) among a plurality of cells.

  The two-dimensional code 2 is preferably displayed with a logo superimposed thereon. For example, like a two-dimensional code 4a with a logo that expresses the characters “address change” shown in FIG. 4B in a visually recognizable manner, a plurality of brightness distribution patterns as shown in FIG. Logos such as figures, letters, symbols, pictures, etc. are overlaid on the cells. Such logos overlap circular cells with less than a predetermined brightness (black cells in this example) on areas of the logo that have a predetermined brightness or higher, while circles with a predetermined brightness or higher in the logo with a predetermined brightness. Are formed by overlapping the cells (in this example, white cells).

  In the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a, various types of information are expressed by the distribution pattern of an area below a predetermined brightness and cells below a predetermined brightness in a logo, and an area above a predetermined brightness and cells above a predetermined brightness in the logo. The Such a logo-added two-dimensional code 4a is preferably full-colored from the viewpoint of preventing forgery, but may be grayscale. The shape of the cell for representing the logo is arbitrary, and may be a circle, a polygon, a star, or the like.

  The management server 10 has a logo-designed two-dimensional code 4a with the same “address change” logo for each delivery destination that has received a delivery instruction, and has a unique URL that is different for each delivery destination. A two-dimensional code expressing information is generated and attached to the delivery.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a delivery item to which a two-dimensional code is attached.

  For example, the management server 10 affixes the generated logo-added two-dimensional code 4a to the front side of a postcard on which a member's address name such as a delivery item 5a is written. The delivery 5a is like a direct mail, for example. On the back side of the postcard, contents to be notified to each member, such as notifications and advertisements from member organizations, are written.

  The management server 10 generates a delivery with a logo-added two-dimensional code 4 a for each member who has received a delivery instruction, and prints it by the printing unit 13. The management server 10 separately prints a two-dimensional code 4a with a seal logo and a postcard on which predetermined items are written, and generates the delivery 5a by pasting the two-dimensional code 4a with a logo on the postcard. It may be. Thereafter, the generated delivery 5a is delivered to a delivery destination member by a delivery person such as a courier or a post office worker.

The delivery pattern of the delivery 5a can be mainly divided into the following three types depending on whether the address name written on the delivery 5a is correct.
(1) When the address name written on the delivery 5a is the latest, the delivery 5a is appropriately delivered to the member to be delivered.
(2) If the address name written on the delivery item 5a is not the latest and a transfer notice has been submitted to the delivery company, the delivery item 5a is transferred to the new address by the delivery company.
(3) If the name of the address written on the delivery 5a is not the latest, and no delivery notice has been submitted to the delivery company, the delivery 5a is returned to the sender.

  Of these, (2) and (3) indicate that the member's address name stored in the member DB 151 is not the latest, so the member information stored in the member DB 151 needs to be updated. Therefore, the information update system 1 according to the present embodiment updates the member information to the latest in the case of (2), and performs the process of deleting the old member information in the case of (3). Hereinafter, a case where the delivery item 5a of (2) is transferred to the new address will be described.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a delivery delivered to a new address.

  If the address name written on the delivery is not up-to-date and a transfer notice has been submitted to the delivery company, the delivery with the transfer seal 6 pasted on the original address, such as the delivery 5b, is provided. , Forwarded to the new member. In the transfer seal 6, the address of the new address submitted to the delivery company is recorded. In addition, a custom bar code 7 that is a one-dimensional code representing the address information of the new address is also written on the transfer sticker 6.

  An offer that prompts the address change procedure “To the person with the sticker printed in red” “Transfer period: ~” along with the original code 4a with the logo “Address change” on the delivery 5b Is marked. Since the logo attached to the two-dimensional code and the offer written next to the logo are easily noticeable to the members, the renewal rate of the address by the members who received the delivery 5b can be increased.

  When the member who receives the delivery 5b reads the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a using the member terminal 20-k possessed by the member and accesses the unique URL represented by the two-dimensional code, the member information stored in the member DB 151 is stored. The update process is started.

  FIG. 7 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of the member terminal 20-k.

  The member terminal 20-k is a terminal held by a member whose personal information such as an address name is stored in the member DB 151. The member terminal 20-k is configured by an information processing apparatus that can access URLs of various external servers via a network 50 connected by wireless communication, such as a mobile phone or a smartphone.

  The member terminal 20-k includes a display unit 21, an operation unit 22, a reading unit 23, a communication unit 24, a storage unit 25, and a control unit 26. These units are connected to each other via a bus.

  The display unit 21 is configured by a display device such as an LCD. The display unit 21 displays an input screen for registering an address change and various images for operating the member terminal 20-k under the control of the control unit 26, or an image captured by the reading unit 23. Or as a through image.

  The operation unit 22 includes, for example, a cross cursor key, an alphanumeric button for inputting numbers and characters, and the like. The operation unit 22 is operated by a member who is an operator, and receives an instruction to read a two-dimensional code, an instruction to access various websites, an input of an address change, and the like.

  The display unit 21 and the operation unit 22 may be configured by a touch panel (touch screen) or the like. In this case, the display device and the input device built in the touch panel constitute the display unit 21 and the operation unit 22, respectively.

  The reading unit 23 is configured by, for example, a general-purpose two-dimensional code reader. The reading unit 23 images the two-dimensional code using an imaging element such as a CCD (Charge-Coupled Device). Then, the reading unit 23 reads various information such as a URL expressed by the two-dimensional code from an image obtained by imaging and supplies the information to the control unit 26.

  The communication unit 24 is configured by, for example, a wireless communication device. The communication unit 24 exchanges data with the management server 10 connected via the network 50 under the control of the control unit 26.

  The storage unit 25 is configured by, for example, a nonvolatile memory. The storage unit 25 stores, for example, various programs necessary for the operation of the OS (Operating System) and the member terminal 20-k.

  The control part 26 is comprised by CPU, ROM, RAM, etc., for example. In the control unit 26, the CPU controls the operation of each unit of the member terminal 20-k by appropriately executing various programs stored in the ROM, the storage unit 25, and the like using the RAM as a work memory.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the member information update procedure is performed from the member terminal 20-k. In FIG. 8, as a member terminal 20-k, a touch sensor for detecting contact functions as the operation unit 22 and a touch panel type terminal in which the touch sensor and the display unit 21 are superimposed will be described as an example.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, when the member terminal 20-k reads the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a attached to the delivery item 5b by the reading unit 23, the control unit 26 manages it via the communication unit 24. A mobile site managed in the server 10 is accessed. In the management server 10, the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a is read by the member terminal 20-k, and when access to the mobile site is detected, the unique ID is notified from the accessed URL.

  That is, since the URL included in the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a attached to the delivery 5b is a URL including a unique ID that differs for each member, the URL accessed by the member terminal 20-k differs for each member. Therefore, the management server 10 can determine which member's data should be updated based on the unique ID included in the accessed unique URL. For example, as shown in FIG. 8B, when the read two-dimensional code has a URL including the unique ID “ad00002”, the management server 10 is notified of the unique ID “ad00002”.

  Then, a predetermined update form for updating member information including a new delivery destination of the moved member is transmitted from the management server 10 to the member terminal 20-k that is the access source. When the transmitted update form is received, the member terminal 20-k displays the update form received by the control unit 26 on the display unit 21. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8C, an icon for starting an e-mail for registering an address change, a notice of handling personal information, a notice of canceling domain designation, and the like are displayed. .

  When the member operating the member terminal 20-k selects the “mail activation” icon on such an update form screen, for example, a mail creation screen as shown in FIG. The member can operate the operation unit 22 to input the address of the new address in the body of the email and transmit it to the management server 10.

  At this time, a mail address including the member's unique ID is automatically set as the mail destination. That is, the management server 10 embeds an e-mail address including the unique ID acquired when the access to the mobile site is detected in the e-mail address of the update form, generates a unique update form for each member, Transmit to terminal 20-k.

  In the management server 10, when receiving the mail in which the address of the new address is input, the control unit 16 acquires information on the new address from the transmitted mail text, and updates the data stored in the member DB 151. At that time, the control unit 16 determines which member of the member information stored in the member DB 151 is to be updated based on the unique ID included in the received mail destination.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing how data stored in the member DB 151 is updated.

  For example, when an address change registration mail is transmitted to a mail address including the unique ID “ad00002”, the control unit 16 of the management server 10 includes the unique ID “ad00002” among the member information stored in the member DB 151. The address data of “Ada Boro” stored and stored is updated to the new address data “Taito-ku, Tokyo” described in the mail text.

  At that time, in addition to updating the address data, the data of the e-mail address may be updated. For example, the control unit 16 of the management server 10 acquires the mail address “xxxx@***.ne.jp” of the received address change registration mail, and the unique ID “ad00002” is set and stored. The email address of “Ada Boro” may be updated to the acquired new email address.

  By updating the data in the member DB 151 as described above, when another delivery item is delivered thereafter, it can be appropriately delivered based on the updated member information.

  The flow of various processes executed in the information update system 1 as described above will be described with reference to flowcharts.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a delivery generation process executed by the management server 10.

  First, the control unit 16 of the management server 10 determines whether or not there is an instruction to generate a delivery item (step S1). For example, the control unit 16 determines whether or not a delivery output instruction has been received from the operator via the operation unit 12. When there is no delivery generation instruction (step S1; No), the control unit 16 loops and waits until an instruction is issued.

  When there is an instruction to generate a delivery item (step S1; Yes), the control unit 16 acquires member information of the delivery destination from the member DB 151 (step S2). Specifically, the control unit 16 acquires necessary data such as a name, a current address as a delivery destination, and a unique URL for each of the members who are instructed to deliver among various data stored in the member DB 151.

  When the member information is acquired, the control unit 16 generates a two-dimensional code representing the unique URL information of the acquired member information (step S3). For example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the control unit 16 has a unique URL for each delivery destination for which a delivery instruction has been given as information, and generates a two-dimensional code 4a with a unified design logo. .

  When the two-dimensional code is generated, the control unit 16 prints the two-dimensional code and generates a delivery (step S4). In other words, the control unit 16 outputs the generated logo-added two-dimensional code or delivery by the printing unit 13, and, for example, sends a direct mail in which the logo-added two-dimensional code 4a such as the delivery item 5a shown in FIG. Generate.

  Thereafter, the delivery generation process executed by the management server 10 ends. The generated delivery is delivered to the delivery destination member. Then, when the member receives the delivery and reads the logo-attached two-dimensional code attached thereto using the reading function of the member terminal 20-k, update processing of the member information stored in the member DB 151 is started.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a member information update process executed by the management server 10 and the member terminal 20-k.

  The control unit 26 of the member terminal 20-k first determines whether or not an instruction to read a two-dimensional code has been issued (step S11). For example, the control unit 26 determines whether an instruction to read a two-dimensional code is received from the operator via the operation unit 22. When there is no reading instruction (step S11; No), the control unit 26 waits in a loop until there is an instruction.

  When there is an instruction to read the two-dimensional code (step S11; Yes), the control unit 26 reads the two-dimensional code using the function of the reading unit 23 (step S12), and accesses the URL indicated by the read two-dimensional code. (Step S13). That is, the control unit 26 acquires the URL expressed by the distribution of the cells of the two-dimensional code captured by the two-dimensional code reader. Then, the control unit 26 connects to the website indicated by the acquired URL, that is, the mobile site stored in the management server 10 via the communication unit 24.

  When the member terminal 20-k reads the two-dimensional code to access the mobile site, and the control unit 16 of the management server 10 detects access to the mobile site (step S14), the update process in the management server 10 is started. .

  In the management server 10, the control unit 16 first acquires a unique ID from the accessed URL (step S15). That is, the control unit 16 obtains the unique ID included in the two-dimensional code when accessed from the member terminal 20-k, and which member data among the member information stored in the member DB 151 is to be updated. Used for discrimination. And the control part 16 transmits the update form of member information to the member terminal 20-k which accessed the mobile site in order to request | require the new delivery destination which should be updated (step S16).

  When the member terminal 20-k receives the update form transmitted from the management server 10 (step S17), the control unit 26 of the member terminal 20-k displays the received update form on the display unit 21 (step S18). That is, for example, a screen for updating the address as shown in FIG. 8C is displayed on the display unit 21.

  When the update form is displayed, the control unit 26 receives input of update data from the member possessing the member terminal 20-k (step S19). For example, the control unit 26 displays a mail screen that accepts the input of the address of the new address as shown in FIG.

  Subsequently, the control unit 26 determines whether or not an instruction to transmit the input update data has been issued (step S20). For example, the control unit 26 determines whether or not a mail transmission button in which update data is entered by the operator via the operation unit 22 is selected. When there is no transmission instruction (step S20; No), the control unit 26 waits in a loop until an instruction is issued.

  When there is a transmission instruction (step S20; Yes), the control unit 26 transmits the input update data to the management server 10 (step S21). When the management server 10 receives the transmitted update data (step S22), the control unit 16 updates the data in the member DB 151 using the received update data (step S23). That is, the control unit 16 updates the member data stored by setting the unique ID acquired in step S15 with the received update data.

  When the member DB 151 is updated, the control unit 16 transmits an update completion notification via the communication unit 14 to the member terminal 20-k that has transmitted the update data (step S24). In the member terminal 20-k, when the completion notification is received (step S25), the control unit 26 displays the received completion notification on the display unit 21 (step S26), and notifies the member that the update is completed. Thereafter, the member information update process ends.

  After such an update process is executed, it is preferable that members can use various contents stored in the mobile site DB 152 of the management server 10. Therefore, for example, the update completion notification may include content that guides the member to access various mobile contents stored in the mobile site DB 152. As described above, by making it possible to use the mobile content after completing the update of the registration information, there is an effect that it is possible to increase the access rate of the member and further promote the update of the registration information.

  As described above, the information update system 1 according to the first embodiment generates a two-dimensional code in which the unique ID of a delivery destination member is embedded, and attaches the generated two-dimensional code to a delivery to this member. When the delivery is transferred to the member's new address, the member who has received the delivery reads the two-dimensional code attached to the delivery with the member terminal 20-k, thereby updating the member information such as the new address. Can be performed easily. Therefore, it is possible to promote the update of the member information such as the delivery destination registered in the member DB 151 and keep the registered member information as up-to-date as possible.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, an information update system according to the second embodiment will be described.

  Embodiment 1 demonstrated the case where the delivery 5a of delivery pattern (2) was transferred to a new address among the three delivery patterns of the delivery 5a mentioned above. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, in the case of the delivery pattern (3), that is, the address name written in the delivery 5a is not the latest, and the delivery notice has not been submitted to the delivery company. The case where it is returned will be described. In this case, a process of deleting old member information stored in the member DB 151 is executed.

  FIG. 12 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of the information update system according to the second embodiment.

  The management server 10 constituting the information update system 1 according to the second embodiment is connected to the sender terminal 30 via the network 50 in addition to the plurality of member terminals 20-k (k is a natural number).

  The sender terminal 30 is a terminal owned by the sender of the delivery 5a, and is a terminal designated in advance as a terminal for reading the two-dimensional code of the returned delivery 5a and deleting the old member information in the member DB 151. is there. The sender terminal 30 is configured by an information processing apparatus having a two-dimensional code reading function, such as a general-purpose two-dimensional code reader.

  The sender terminal 30 may be installed in the management company of the information update system 1 as in the management server 10, or may be installed outside the management company. For example, when the sender and the management company are different, that is, when the sender requests the management company to create and deliver a direct mail such as the delivery 5a, the sender terminal 30 is assumed to be installed outside the management company. Is done.

  FIG. 13 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration example of the sender terminal 30.

  The sender terminal 30 includes a display unit 31, an operation unit 32, a reading unit 33, a communication unit 34, a storage unit 35, and a control unit 36. These units are connected to each other via a bus. These units function in the same manner as the units in the member terminal 20-k. Therefore, detailed description is omitted here.

  FIG. 14 is a flowchart illustrating an example of member information update processing executed by the management server 10 and the sender terminal 30 in the second embodiment.

  The control unit 36 of the sender terminal 30 first determines whether or not an instruction to read a two-dimensional code has been issued (step S31). For example, the control unit 36 determines whether a two-dimensional code reading instruction has been received from the operator via the operation unit 32. When there is no reading instruction (step S31; No), the control unit 36 loops and waits until there is an instruction.

  When there is an instruction to read the two-dimensional code (step S31; Yes), the control unit 36 reads the two-dimensional code using the function of the reading unit 33 (step S32), and accesses the URL indicated by the read two-dimensional code. (Step S33). That is, the control unit 36 acquires the URL expressed by the distribution of the cells of the two-dimensional code imaged by the two-dimensional code reader. Then, the control unit 36 connects to the website indicated by the acquired URL, that is, the mobile site stored in the management server 10 via the communication unit 34.

  When the sender terminal 30 reads the two-dimensional code to access the mobile site, and the control unit 16 of the management server 10 detects access to the mobile site from the sender terminal 30 designated in advance (step S34), the management server 10 The member information deletion process is started.

  In the management server 10, the control unit 16 first acquires a unique ID from the accessed URL (step S35). That is, the control unit 16 obtains a unique ID included in the two-dimensional code when accessed from the sender terminal 30 and determines which member data of the member information stored in the member DB 151 is to be deleted. Use.

  When the unique ID is acquired, the control unit 16 of the management server 10 deletes the data in the member DB 151 corresponding to the acquired unique ID (step S36). That is, the control unit 16 updates the member DB 151 by deleting the address data corresponding to the acquired unique ID from the member information stored in the member DB 151.

  When the member DB 151 is updated, the control unit 16 transmits an update completion notification to the sender terminal 30 that has accessed the mobile site via the communication unit 14 (step S37). In the sender terminal 30, when the completion notification is received (step S38), the control unit 36 displays the received completion notification on the display unit 31 (step S39) and notifies the member that the update is completed. Thereafter, the member information erasing process ends.

  As described above, the information update system 1 according to the second embodiment is when the address stored in the member DB 151 is not the latest, and the delivery is returned to the sender without being transferred to the new address. The member information is erased from the member DB 151 by reading the two-dimensional code attached to the delivery item with the sender terminal 30. As a result, inappropriate member information is organized, so that deliveries can be prevented from being delivered to another person residing at the old address, and troubles such as complaints and leakage of personal information can be prevented. .

[Third Embodiment]
Next, an information update system according to Embodiment 3 will be described.

  In the above embodiment, information such as the member's address and mail address stored in the member DB 151 is updated. On the other hand, in the third embodiment, the member DB 151 further stores an access log from each of the member terminals 20-k to the mobile site as member information. That is, the member DB 151 stores a log when the member accesses the mobile site stored in the mobile site DB 152 in addition to information such as the member's address and name as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of access log data stored in the member DB 151.

  The member DB 151 according to the third embodiment stores data such as the date and time when the mobile site was accessed, the connection time, the name and unique ID of the accessed member, and the carrier and model of the member terminal 20-k at that time. In addition, the member DB 151 may store more detailed data such as the number of accesses, the day of the week of access, and which page of the access site was viewed and when. The control unit 16 of the management server 10 acquires such an access log every time access from any member terminal 20-k is detected, and updates the access log stored in the member DB 151 as needed.

  FIG. 16 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a member information update process according to the third embodiment.

  When the process is started, the update process of the member information stored in the member DB 151 is executed by the process similar to steps S11 to S26 in the update process of the member information of the first embodiment (step S41).

  When update processing of the member information stored in the member DB 151 is performed and the completion notification is displayed on the display unit 21 in the member terminal 20-k (step S26), the control unit 26 of the member terminal 20-k may It is determined whether or not access to the mobile content is instructed (step S42). For example, the control unit 26 determines whether or not a content menu icon has been selected by the operator via the operation unit 22. When there is no access instruction (step S42; No), the control unit 26 waits in a loop until an instruction is issued.

  When there is an access instruction (step S42; Yes), the control unit 26 accesses the URL of the mobile content for which the instruction has been given (step S43). Then, when the management server 10 detects an access from the member terminal 20-k (step S44), the control unit 16 acquires the access log (step S45), and stores the acquired access log in the member DB 151 ( Step S46).

  In other words, the control unit 16 of the management server 10 acquires information about the content accessed from the member terminal 20-k, its time, information on the carrier and model of the member terminal 20-k, and each member who accesses the acquired information for each member. Store in the DB 151. Information on which member has accessed can be specified based on the unique ID included in the accessed URL, that is, the unique ID included in the two-dimensional code read by the member terminal 20-k.

  When the access log is acquired, the control unit 16 transmits the selected content data to the access source member terminal 20-k (step S47). When the member terminal 20-k receives the content data (step S48), the control unit 26 displays the received content data on the display unit 21 (step S49), thereby providing the mobile content to the member.

  Thereafter, the process of the member terminal 20-k returns to step S42. That is, the control unit 26 of the member terminal 20-k determines whether access to any mobile content has been instructed, and accesses the URL of the mobile content that has been instructed to access. And in the management server 10, the log continues being acquired whenever it accesses from the member terminal 20-k.

  The access log data stored in the member DB 151 is arranged and visualized in an appropriate graph or the like if necessary, and is provided to a predetermined organization to which the member belongs, and is used for various marketing. For example, data such as which members are easy to access at what time zone and what kind of content on the mobile site is extracted from the access log, and the contents of direct mail to be delivered in the future are the preferences of each member The content can be in line with

  As described above, the information update system according to the third embodiment acquires an access log to the mobile site for each member whose information is stored in the member DB 151. By associating the acquired access log with the member information stored in the member DB 151, it is possible to construct a DB having a higher value than a database having member personal information.
