Connected [i.e. linked] accounts of a user keeps signed state in alive of other connected [i.e. linked] accounts

Abstract:

A method and system directed to performing account activity tracking is provided. More specifically, user activity associated with a user's first account may influence when a user's second account is signed out due to inactivity. Accordingly, an activity request including a first identifier associated with a first user account may be received from a first entity, and based on the first identifier associated with the first user account, a second identifier associated with a second user account may be retrieved, where the first identifier and the second identifier are linked to one another. Activity information for the second identifier associated with the second user account may be obtained which may be provided to the entity. A decision as to whether or not to keep the user signed in may be based on the activity information.
