Abstract
A content relay device obtains user identification information from a terminal. Upon relaying content information between a content providing server and the terminal, the content relay device stores history information of the content information with relating the history information to the user identification information. When content information obtained from the content providing server includes information regarding an entry field, the content relay device extracts entry history information from the stored history information according to the user identification information and information regarding the obtained content information. Then, the content relay device transmits the entry history information to the terminal.
