Abstract

Secure storage of important/relevant information on a device and/or internet cloud is facilitated, and enables automatic transmission of that important/relevant information when certain user-defined criteria are met, e.g., when 911 is dialed on a corresponding subscriber device. A baseline data collection and maintenance interface enables a subscriber to provision important/relevant information (e.g. medical/emergency information) authorized for transmittal, intended recipients of data (e.g. emergency personnel), and one or more information exchange events (e.g., dialing 911 on a corresponding subscriber device), in to a subscriber information database. A trigger monitoring server monitors a subscriber device for the occurrence of one or more information exchange events defined in an affiliated subscriber information database. The trigger monitoring server accesses a relevant subscriber information database to dynamically facilitate stored subscriber information to one or more predetermined data recipients, each instance an information exchange event is detected on a corresponding subscriber device.

Claims (16)

1. A method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device, comprising:

securely pre-storing subscriber information, received from a subscriber device associated with a given subscriber, in a subscriber information database separate of the subscriber device;

pre-authorizing a pre-designated third party recipient device for reception of the secure pre-stored subscriber information;

monitoring, via a remote trigger monitoring network server, the subscriber device to detect an occurrence of an information exchange trigger event on the monitored subscriber device;

transmitting, via the remote trigger monitoring network server, the secure pre-stored subscriber information to the pre-authorized pre-designated third party recipient device in response to detecting the information exchange trigger event;

causing a second subscriber device associated with the given subscriber to transmit additional subscriber information to the remote trigger monitoring network server in response to the information exchange trigger event; and

transmitting, via the remote trigger monitoring network server, the secure pre-stored subscriber information and the additional subscriber information to the pre-authorized pre-designated third party recipient device,

wherein the subscriber device outputs the secure pre-stored subscriber information in response to the information exchange trigger event and user input.

2. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein the subscriber information database comprises: an emergency information database.

3. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on said given subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices comprise: an emergency services device.

4. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices comprise: a destination device identified within an address book maintained on the subscriber device.

5. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device according to claim 4 , wherein: the address book is stored on the subscriber device.

6. A server to facilitate automatic, pre-authorized transmittal of secure pre-stored subscriber information to one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices when a subscriber pre-defined information exchange trigger event is detected on a corresponding subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein: the secure pre-stored subscriber information is transmitted via email only to the one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices.

7. A server to facilitate automatic, pre-authorized transmittal of secure pre-stored subscriber information to one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices when a subscriber pre-defined information exchange trigger event is detected on a corresponding subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein: the secure pre-stored subscriber information is transmitted via text message only to said one or more pre-designated third party recipient devices.

8. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein the additional subscriber information is real-time information captured via the second subscriber device.

9. The method for remotely monitoring a given subscriber device for an information exchange trigger event detected on the given subscriber device according to claim 1 , wherein the second subscriber device is one of a heart and a glucose monitoring device.
