Abstract
In a service provider system, a service provider provides service information dependent on location information of a mobile terminal to the mobile terminal in response to a service request with the location information sent by the mobile terminal. A communication control unit controls communication between the mobile terminal and the service provider. The communication control unit converts a user identifier of the mobile terminal in the service request to a temporary identifier for the communication.
