Location based information for emergency services systems and methods
First Claim
1. A system for contacting emergency services, the system comprising:
- a network connected device, wherein the device is configured to;
receive a set of data identifying the location of the device; and
transmit a communications signal which includes information comprising;
the set of data;
an identifier unique to the device; and
a request to contact emergency services; and
a database which comprises a table of identifiers, wherein, each identifier in the table is unique to one of a plurality of network connected devices;
each identifier in the table is associated with different user information stored in the database; and
the table of identifiers includes the identifier unique to the device;
a location comparison server, in communication with the device and the database, wherein the server is configured to;
receive the communications signal;
identify a subset of the user information associated with the identifier unique to the device, wherein the subset is applicable to the location of the device; and
transmit the request, the location of the device, and the subset to an emergency services provider determined by the location of the device.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and software for identifying location based rules related to a network connected device are described. A network connected device may transmit a set of data identifying the location of the device and an identifier unique to the device to a server. The server may also receive an action request, wherein the action request is associated with the identifier. The server may select a rule in a database to address the action request, the rule applicable to the identifier and location of the device. Various embodiments related to financial card transactions, access to financial information, emergency services contact, and electronic message filtering are also addressed.
