Abstract

The invention provides a service-providing system that is suited to increase security of a user's privacy by preventing a user's personal information from be externally leaked out. A service-providing terminal sends a content list to a client terminal in response to a service-providing request, and when receiving a selection result of the digital content from the client terminal, selects the digital content to distribute from a plurality of digital content based on the selection result, and distributes the selected digital content to the client terminal. The client terminal is provided with a user information registration, in which user information is registered, and when receiving the content list from the service-providing terminal, selects a content-ID from the content list based on the user information in the user information registration, and sends a selection result to the service-providing terminal.
