    Abstract: An information provision method includes accumulating, in a first database, a first identifier identifying each of one or more service providers, and first device information indicating an electrical device to be designated by each of the one or more service providers in association with each other; accumulating, in a second database, a second identifier identifying each of one or more users, and second device information indicating an electrical device to be used by the one or more users in association with each other; extracting a service provider associated with the first device information when the second device information is updated by addition of a new electrical device to be used by one of the one or more users, and when the new electrical device is included in the electrical devices indicated by the first device information.

    Abstract: A data search method of a first device storing multiple sets of privacy data acquired from multiple persons and multiple reference features corresponding to the multiple sets of privacy data, where the multiple reference features each are expressed by an n-dimensional vector, includes receiving first encrypted features from a second device connected to the first device, generating multiple second converted features by a second conversion of the multiple reference features, generating of multiple second encrypted features by encrypting the multiple second converted features using inner product encryption, acquiring multiple inner product values by performing inner product computation of each of the first encrypted features and the multiple second encrypted features, determining whether or not the first features and the first reference features are similar, and transmitting of first privacy data corresponding to the first reference features out of the multiple sets of privacy data to the second device.

    Abstract: An information management method collects log information of one or more home electrical apparatuses corresponding to service providers. Display screen data is generated which indicates a status of the log information. The display screen data includes groups of information which each contain information on an apparatus, a service provider corresponding to the apparatus, and log information output from the apparatus. Provision of the log information of each group is individually selectable. The display screen data is provided via a network to a display terminal that performs access to a server device. Information is received from the display terminal, which indicates that selection on whether or not provision of the log information is performed. Provision of the log information is stopped on the selected group when a determination is made that refusal of provision of the log information on the selected group is performed.
