WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/128836

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

Provided is an information processing system whereby it is possible to control one's own name which is disclosed to another user according to one's relation to the other user. For each of a plurality of users, a user management server (2) associates and stores an identification name which identifies the user, a "hidden" name which is registered by the user, and information specifying a user to whom viewing of the hidden name may be permitted. When an acquisition request for the name information of a requestee user, including information which specifies the requester user, is received from a client device (3), the user management server (2) transmits the hidden name of the requestee user in response to the acquisition request if the requester user is registered as a user having viewing permission with respect to the requestee user, and transmits the identification name of the requestee user if the requester user is not registered as such. The client device (3) displays the transmitted name information of the requester user in a display screen.
