Management of ancillary content delivery and presentation
First Claim
1. A method for mediating requests for content-related services, the method comprising:
- receiving a request for a location-dependent content-related service sent from an end-user client device, wherein the end-user client device is determined to be in a geographic location;
assigning a location-dependent service provider from a plurality of service providers to provide the requested location-dependent content-related service to the end-user client device based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device;
generating, by way of a mediation server, configuration information based on an indication that the end-user client device is located in the geographic location, wherein the configuration information specifies whether the end-user client device has access to the requested location-dependent content-related service;
sending, by way of the mediation server, the configuration information to the end-user client device; and
using the configuration information to;
provide the requested location-dependent content-related service over a communication network to the end-user client device in accordance with a set of identified permissions, wherein the set of permissions is based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device, anddetermine what online information is tracked and reported with respect to online activity associated with the requested location-dependent content-related service on the end-user device.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention address delivery of content, including advertising, in an online or networked digital environment. Undesirable content or content that needs to be removed from the digital environment may be eliminated through invocation of a ‘kill switch’ that terminates further delivery of the aforementioned content. The ‘kill switch’ may also eliminate certain instantiations of that content already delivered to end-user client devices. In order to lessen the need for termination of content following delivery to the digital environment, content developers and content providers may view content scheduled for delivery in digital environment ‘mock ups’ prior to actual delivery. Content developers and content providers, too, may control certain attributes related to content scheduled for delivery to further obviate post-delivery termination or modification.

10. A system for mediating requests for content-related services, the system comprising:
a mediation server that; receives a request for a location-dependent content-related service sent from an end-user client device, wherein the end-user client device is determined to be in a geographic location, assigns a location-dependent service provider from a plurality of service providers to provide the requested location-dependent content-related service to the end-user client device based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device, generates configuration information based on an indication that the end-user client device is located in the geographic location, wherein the configuration information specifies whether the end-user client device has access to the requested location-dependent content-related service, and sends the configuration information to the end-user client device; and
wherein the service provider uses the configuration information to;provide the requested location-dependent content-related service over a communication network to the end-user client device in accordance with a set of identified permissions, wherein the set of permissions is based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device, and determine what online information is tracked and reported with respect to online activity associated with the requested location-dependent content-related service on the end-user device. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having embodied there on a program, the program being executable by a processor to perform a method for mediating requests for content-related services, the method comprising:
-
receiving a request for a location-dependent content-related service sent from an end-user client device, wherein the end-user client device is determined to be in a geographic location; assigning a location-dependent service provider from a plurality of service providers to provide the requested location-dependent content-related service to the end-user client device based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device; generating configuration information based on an indication that the end-user client device is located in the geographic location, wherein the configuration information specifies whether the end-user client device has access to the requested location-dependent content-related service; sending the configuration information to the end-user client device; and using the configuration information to; provide the requested location-dependent content-related service over a communication network to the end-user client device in accordance with a set of identified permissions, wherein the set of permissions is based on the determined geographic location of the end-user client device, and determine what online information is tracked and reported with respect to online activity associated with the requested location-dependent content-related service on the end-user device.
