Abstract

A computer system receives from a user computer, an authorization code and an access instruction for at least one data record with person-related contents. It executes the access instruction only if the authorization code matches a comparison criterion which it determines on the basis of a data record code assigned to the data record. The data record code is specific at least to the person whose personal data the data record contains.

Claims (20)

1. A method for managing data records with person-related contents using a computer system, comprising:

receiving, in the computer system from a user computer, an authorization code and an access instruction for at least one data record;

checking whether the authorization code is identical to a first data record code, said first data record code being specific to personal data contained in the data record;

checking whether the authorization code contains said first data record code and a second data record code when the authorization code is not identical to the first data record code, said second data record code being content-specific to the data record;

transmitting an image contained in said data record with a first image content to the user computer when the authorization code is identical to the first data record code and said access instruction is a read access instruction; and

transmitting said image with a second image content to the user computer when the authorization code contains the first data record code and the second data record code and said access instruction is a read access instruction, wherein said first image content is reduced relative to said second image content.

2. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in the case that the authorization code is identical to the first data record and the access instruction is not a read access instruction, the data record is not changed.

3. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the computer system encrypts the data record before transmission to the user computer.

4. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in the case that the authorization code contains the first data record code and the second data record code and the access instruction is not a read access instruction the data record is at least one of deleted, changed and newly created.

5. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the computer system decrypts at least the authorization code following reception.

6. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the computer system communicates with the user computer via a point-to-point connection.

7. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the contents of the data record are medical.

8. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an account assigned to the data record is charged with a basic debit amount at periodic intervals.

9. The management method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein, as a result of the execution of the access instruction, the account is charged with an access debit amount.

10. The management method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the access debit amount is cost-dependent.

11. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that when executed on a computer causes the computer to perform the method for managing data records as defined in claim 1 .

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that when executed on a computer causes the computer to perform the method for managing data records as defined in claim 2 .

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that when executed on a computer causes the computer to perform the method for managing data records as defined in claim 4 .

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that when executed on a computer causes the computer to perform the method for managing data records as defined in claim 9 .

15. The management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first image content has a reduced resolution and the second data content has a full resolution.
