Software program ratings
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for determining a rating for a digital product, the method comprising:
- receiving submission of digital products, through an online access point, over a data network;
causing storage of the received digital products;
displaying, on a display associated with a computing device, a user interface that comprises;
multiple content descriptors for a first digital product of the received digital products; and
options coinciding with the multiple content descriptors for user selection that describe a frequency and an intensity of the content in the first digital product by non-numerical selections;
receiving selections of user characterizations of the frequency and the intensity for each of the multiple content descriptors;
calculating a rating level for each of the multiple content descriptors using the user characterizations;
determining a highest rating level for the first digital product by comparing all of the rating levels of all of the multiple content descriptors;
disallowing distribution of the first digital product over the data network to a first geographic region of a plurality of geographic regions based on the determined highest rating level for the first digital product; and
authorizing distribution of the first digital product over the data network to a second geographic region of the plurality of geographic regions based on the determined highest rating level for the first digital product.

Abstract
Systems and methods here include computer-implemented methods for determining ratings for software including displaying multiple content descriptors and options for user selection of both the frequency and intensity of the content in the software program by non-numerical selections. Some embodiments include receiving selections of user characterizations of frequency and intensity for each of the multiple content descriptors, and mapping the user characterization selections of each of the multiple content descriptors to find a rating level for each of the multiple content descriptors. Some embodiments include determining a highest rating level for the software program by comparing all of the rating levels of all of the multiple content descriptors, and distributing the software program to certain geographies based on the determined highest rating level for the software program.
