Abstract

L'invention concerne un système d'authentification, au moyen duquel un utilisateur commande et gère des informations personnelles se rapportant à une fourniture de service au moyen d'une authentification biométrique. Le système d'authentification comprend un serveur d'informations, un serveur d'authentification et un serveur de gestion. Le serveur d'authentification stocke des informations biologiques concernant chaque utilisateur d'une pluralité d'utilisateurs et effectue une authentification biométrique en utilisant les informations biologiques stockées. Le serveur de gestion stocke des informations personnelles pour fournir un service à une personne qui est authentifiée avec succès au moyen d'une authentification biométrique. Le serveur de gestion transmet, à un serveur d'informations, des informations de comportement comportant des informations personnelles, qui sont autorisées à être fournies à un tiers par la personne authentifiée avec succès, parmi les informations personnelles concernant la personne authentifiée avec succès à laquelle le service a été fourni.
