Systems and methods for online identity management
View Patent ↗Disclosed systems and methods allow a user to input digital content along with identification of one or more social media websites on which the user desires to publish the digital content. The systems and methods then query the identified social media webservers and retrieve a first set of publishing rules. When the digital content satisfies the first set of rules, the systems and methods query a database to retrieve a second set of rules comprising user restrictions specific to the identified social media websites. When the digital content does not satisfy at least one rule within the second set of rules, the systems and methods render a prompt on the user device to receive modified digital content. Subsequently, the systems and methods instruct the one or more social media websites to publish the modified digital content.
1. A computer implemented method comprising:
receiving, by a server from a user device, a first instruction to electronically publish digital content, the first instruction comprising identification of a plurality of social media webservers and the digital content;
querying, by the server, a plurality of databases of the plurality of social media webservers to retrieve one or more data records indicating an electronic publishing requirement for each social media webserver, the electronic publishing requirement comprising a first set of rules corresponding to digital content restricted by at least one of the social media webservers;
determining, by the server, whether the digital content satisfies the electronic publishing requirement;
in response to the digital content satisfying the electronic publishing requirement, querying, by the server, a second database to retrieve a user profile, the user profile comprising a second set of rules corresponding to digital content restricted, by a user operating the user device, from being electronically published;
when the digital content satisfies the second set of rules:
displaying, by the server, a prompt on the user device comprising a notification that the digital content satisfies the second set of rules; and
transmitting, by the server, a second instruction to the plurality of social media webservers, the second instruction comprising the digital content and configured to instruct each social media webserver to electronically publish the digital content;
when the digital content does not satisfy the second set of rules:
displaying, by the server, one or more content modification messages on the user device comprising at least one second rule not satisfied;
receiving, by the server, modified digital content; and
transmitting, by the server, a third instruction to the plurality of social media webservers, the third instruction comprising the modified digital content and configured to instruct each social media webservers to electronically publish the modified digital content.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
monitoring, by the server via a software module executing on the user device, one or more actions conducted by the user on the user device.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the software module executing on the user device is a transparent and not displayed to the user.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the software module is an application of the server, the application executing on the user device.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital content comprises a text string.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital content comprises an image.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules correspond to a restriction regarding an image.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules correspond to a restriction regarding a text string.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user device is a mobile device.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the server iteratively determines whether the modified digital content satisfies at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules.
11. A computer system comprising:
a plurality of social media webservers in communication with and configured to execute a plurality of social media websites;
a user device operated by a user;
a server in communication with the plurality of social media webservers and the user device, the server configured to:
receive from the user device, a first instruction to electronically publish digital content, the first instruction comprising identification of a plurality of social media webservers and the digital content;
query a plurality of databases of the plurality of social media webservers to retrieve one or more data records indicating an electronic publishing requirement for each social media webserver, the electronic publishing requirement comprising a first set of rules corresponding to digital content restricted by at least one of the social media web servers;
determine whether the digital content satisfies the electronic publishing requirement;
in response to the digital content satisfying the electronic publishing requirement, query a second database to retrieve a user profile, the user profile comprising a second set of rules corresponding to digital content restricted, by a user operating the user device, from being electronically published;
when the digital content satisfies the second set of rules:
display a prompt on the user device comprising a notification that the digital content satisfies the second set of rules; and
transmit a second instruction to the plurality of social media webservers, the second instruction comprising the digital content and configured to instruct each social media webserver to electronically publish the digital content;
when the digital content does not satisfy the second set of rules:
display one or more content modification messages on the user device comprising at least one second rule not satisfied;
receive modified digital content; and
transmit a third instruction to the plurality of social media webservers, the third instruction comprising the modified digital content and configured to instruct each social media webservers to electronically publish the modified digital content.
12. The computer system of claim 11 , further comprising:
monitoring, by the server via a software module executing on the user device, one or more actions conducted by the user on the user device.
13. The computer system of claim 12 , wherein the software module executing on the user device is a transparent and not displayed to the user.
14. The computer system of claim 12 , wherein the software module is an application of the server, the application executing on the user device.
15. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the digital content comprises a text string.
16. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the digital content comprises an image.
17. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules correspond to a restriction regarding an image.
18. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules correspond to a restriction regarding a text string.
19. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the user device is a mobile device.
20. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the server iteratively determines whether the modified digital content satisfies at least one of the first set of rules and the second set of rules.
