A system and method for managing incoming and outgoing communications may include a definition of if, when, and who may communicate with a recipient. The identification of the communication may be concealed in that no actual addresses, phone numbers, or other addressing identifications are required to be exchanged by the communication initiator and recipient. In an example, if the database contains call management settings for a call recipient, the application logic may evaluate the rules to determine if a particular caller is authorized to connect with the call recipient at the current time and date. The application logic may connect the call utilizing the public telephone switch. The caller and call recipient phone numbers may be stored in a database.

This invention provides methods and apparatus for context based querying to more efficiently provide directory services. In particular, methods and apparatus for querying a database to resolve contact information, e.g., a phone number, based on the context of the query are provided. By querying based on context, the query may be searched using a smaller field of search. Moreover, a context based query allows private phone numbers to be provided when the context of the query has been authenticated and approved for disclosure of the private phone number. Thus, when processing a query for a phone number, the present invention evaluates the context of the query in addition to the query itself to determine what results to provide to a user.

Communication networks and associated methods and systems are disclosed that provide dynamically-configurable maximum durations for sessions over a communication network. For a session, the communication network determines the traditional static maximum duration and the calculated maximum duration (for prepaid sessions). In addition to these maximum durations, the communication network also determines a dynamic maximum duration for the session based on duration criteria. The communication network then selects one of the maximum durations based on the duration criteria, and monitors the session based on the selected maximum duration. By defining the duration criteria in a particular manner, a new dynamically-configured maximum duration for sessions may be used instead of relying only on the static maximum duration and the calculated maximum duration (for prepaid sessions).

A registrant provides at least one registrant electronic contact, such as a telephone number, during a registration process. The registrant's information may be compared to a database of such information. The registrant is verified by establishing a connection with the registrant via the registrant contact. The verification code is communicated to the registrant, which is input into an on-line form or a telephone verification system. Notification events are established, and the registrant is notified of the occurrence of a previously established notification event by establishing a connection with the registrant via the registrant contact.

The invention provides a process for verifying an on-line registration by telephone. A registrant at least partially completes an on-line registration form at a web-site. During the registration process, the registrant either provides his telephone number, or a verification system telephone number is provided to the registrant. A telephonic connection is established between the registrant and the verification system. A registration code is communicated to the registrant, either through the web-site or via the telephonic connection. The registration code is then input into either the on-line registration form or by telephone into the verification system.

A verification and notification system. The system receives information including a telephone number from a user during an attempt by the user to access a service. The telephone number is verified by establishing a short message service (SMS) connection with the user using the received telephone number, and receiving a submitted verification code entered by the user. The received information and verified telephone number are used to complete the registration process and enable the user to access the service. Upon the occurrence of a notification event, an indication of the occurrence of the notification event is transmitted to the verified telephone number. The system receives an acknowledgement of an action associated with the notification event from the user.
