Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A counterpart terminal information management system ( 50 ) includes: a terminal manager ( 5002 ) that manages, for each one of a plurality of terminals ( 10 ), terminal identification information for identifying the terminal, and terminal related information previously set by default, in association with each other; a counterpart terminal manager ( 5003 ) that manages, for each one of the plurality of terminals ( 10 ), the terminal identification information for identifying the terminal, counterpart terminal identification information for identifying a candidate counterpart terminal that may be requested by the terminal to have communication with, and counterpart terminal related information individually set by a user who operates the terminal ( 10 ), in association with one another; a receiver ( 51 ) that receives, from a first terminal ( 10 aa ), a request to share a candidate counterpart terminal managed for the first terminal ( 10 aa ) with the second terminal ( 10 ac ), and information indicating whether to permit or reject sharing of the counterpart terminal related information individually set by the user of the first terminal ( 10 aa ) with the second terminal ( 10 ac ); and a transmitter ( 51 ) that transmits information regarding the candidate counterpart terminal managed for the first terminal ( 10 aa ) to the second terminal ( 10 ac). In response to the information indicating to permit sharing of the counterpart terminal related information, the transmitter ( 51 ) transmits the counterpart terminal related information of the candidate counterpart terminal to be shared, which is managed by the counterpart terminal manager ( 5003 ) in association with the terminal identification information of the first terminal ( 10 aa ). in response to the information indicating to reject sharing of the counterpart terminal related information, the transmitter ( 51 ) transmits the terminal related information of the candidate counterpart terminal to be shared, which is managed by the terminal manager ( 5001 ) in association with the terminal identification information of the candidate counterpart terminal.
