Abstract
A network device is configured to receive a request, from a device, for private information associated with a user of a user device, on behalf of another user device. The network device may authenticate the device, the user device, and the other user device. The network device may request and receive the user's authorization to send the private information to the other user device. The network device may generate and send a token used to request the private information. The network device may receive the token from the device, determine that the token is valid, and send the private information.
