Abstract:
A method for managing sharing of data on location between a user's source device and at least one third party's destination device. The method includes receiving first identifiers of the user's source device and of the third party's destination device and an authorization message indicating whether the destination device is authorized to obtain data on location of the source device; building or updating a table of correspondence associating the first identifier of the source device with the first identifier of the destination device; receiving data on location of the user's source device; receiving a request for transmitting data on location of the user's source device, corresponding to the first identifier of the user's source device, and a second identifier of the third party's destination device; and transmitting the data on location to the third party's destination device when the first and second identifiers of the third party's destination device correspond.
