1. A computer-implemented method for enabling a user to update their identity information that has been shared with one or more third parties, comprising:
- an act of the computing system receiving a request from the user to update one or more specified identity information items with edited identity information, the computing system comprising at least one processor;
an act of the computing system receiving user input changing the at least one or more specified identity information items with the edited identity information;
an act of identifying that the at least one or more specified identity information items has changed;
an act of a computing system, in response to detecting that the one or more specified identity information items has changed, accessing a log file that identifies one or more different entities with whom the user has already shared the one or more specified identity information items;
an act of the computing system prompting the user whether the one or more specified identity information items should be updated with any of one or more of the different entities by at least displaying a list of the one or more different entities with whom the user has previously shared the one or more specified identity information items;
an act of the computing system receiving a user selection of at least one entity of the one or more different entities in the list to have the edited identity information sent to; and
an act of the computing system sending the edited identity information to the at least one selected entity from the list.

Abstract
Upon requesting to share one or more types of identity information, a user is automatically presented with an interface through which the user can interact in selecting an amount of identity items to share. A subset of the total identity items selected may then be shared with specified entities. Interfaces can also be used to assist the user in managing identity information that has been shared with others by providing the user with a visual list of entities for which the user has shared specified identity information and to whom updated information can be sent.

9. A computer storage device having stored instructions which, when executed by a processor, implement a method for enabling a user to update their identity information that has been shared with one or more third parties, and wherein the method includes:
-
an act of the computing system receiving a request from the user to update one or more specified identity information items with edited identity information, the computing system comprising at least one processor; an act of the computing system receiving user input changing the at least one or more specified identity information items with the edited identity information; an act of identifying that the at least one or more specified identity information items has changed; an act of a computing system, in response to detecting that the one or more specified identity information items has changed, accessing a log file that identifies one or more different entities with whom the user has already shared the one or more specified identity information items; an act of the computing system prompting the user whether the one or more specified identity information items should be updated with any of one or more of the different entities by at least displaying a list of the one or more different entities with whom the user has previously shared the one or more specified identity information items; an act of the computing system receiving a user selection of at least one entity of the one or more different entities in the list to have the edited identity information sent to; and an act of the computing system sending the edited identity information to the at least one selected entity from the list. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A computing system comprising:
-
one or more processor; and one or more hardware storage device having stored computer-executable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processor, implement a method for enabling the computing system to update a user'"'"'s identity information that has been shared with one or more third parties, comprising; an act of the computing system receiving a request from the user to update one or more specified identity information items with edited identity information, the computing system comprising at least one processor; an act of the computing system receiving user input changing the at least one or more specified identity information items with the edited identity information; an act of identifying that the at least one or more specified identity information items has changed; an act of a computing system, in response to detecting that the one or more specified identity information items has changed, accessing a log file that identifies one or more different entities with whom the user has already shared the one or more specified identity information items; an act of the computing system prompting the user whether the one or more specified identity information items should be updated with any of one or more of the different entities by at least displaying a list of the one or more different entities with whom the user has previously shared the one or more specified identity information items; an act of the computing system receiving a user selection of at least one entity of the one or more different entities in the list to have the edited identity information sent to; and an act of the computing system sending the edited identity information to the at least one selected entity from the list. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
