Abstract:

Regulating a flow of data from an electronic device comprises generating a user profile associated with a user. Further, a resource profile is generated and is associated with one or more resources external to the electronic device. Additionally, a context profile is generated and describes an outcome of one or more previous interactions between the user of the electronic device and one or more resources. Rules are generated based on a comparison the user profile, the context profile and the site profile. Further, data sent from an electronic device is modified based on the set of rules.
