1. A method for updating personalization information associated with an update of a mobile application on a communication device managed by an application provider computer, the method comprising:

  • receiving, by a server computer, a migration notification from the application provider computer, the migration notification including device identification information, applet identification information identifying an applet of the mobile application, and application version information for the mobile application installed on the communication device by the application provider computer;

    identifying, by the server computer, an account associated with the migration notification using the device identification information and the applet identification information;

    validating, by the server computer, the migration notification by comparing the received application version information with stored application version information associated with the identified account;

    identifying, by the server computer, a current personalization profile associated with the mobile application using the received application version information;

    identifying, by the server computer, an updated personalization profile associated with the update of the mobile application;

    determining, by the server computer, partial personalization information associated with a difference between the current personalization profile and the updated personalization profile;

    generating partial personalization scripts including the partial personalization information for updating the personalization information stored in the mobile application of the communication device, the partial personalization scripts generated without including duplicate personalization information for the applet that is the same across the update of the mobile application and a previous version of the mobile application installed on the communication device, wherein the duplicate personalization information is retained at the communication device during update of the personalization information; and

    providing, by the server computer, the partial personalization scripts to the application provider computer for installation on the communication device to update the personalization information of the applet identified by the applet identification information.
