1. A method for transferring data among communication devices, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a first communication device, from a second communication device, data to be transferred and conditions defining a range of data transfer, wherein the conditions defining the range of data transfer include a maximum distance for the data to be transmitted, wherein the maximum distance is defined by a length, and wherein the conditions defining the range of data transfer further include a data transfer area within which the data is permitted to be transferred, wherein the data transfer area is defined by a user selection on a map, wherein the map is a geographic view of the data transfer area displayed on a user interface of the second communication device;
determining, by the first communication device, whether a third communication device satisfies the conditions defining the range of data transfer; and
on condition that the first communication device determines that the third communication device satisfies the conditions, directly transferring, by the first communication device, the data and the conditions to the third communication device.

Abstract
A method for transferring data among communication devices. The method includes a first communication device receiving, from a second communication device, data to be transferred and a condition defining a range of data transfer. The first communication device then determines whether a third communication device satisfies the condition defining the range of data transfer. On condition that the first communication device determines that the third communication device satisfies the condition, the first communication device directly transfers the data and the condition to the third communication device.
