GoldUI Profile
GoldUI Profile is a key concept to GoldUI. GoldUI Profile
is the development and maintenance of a cloud-based
secure user profile, which is intended to be maintained
by a trusted relative or carer.
The carer can manage different end users accounts and
access to the accessibility information and configure it.
Also, the specific service setting can be configured.
Once the carer establishes the service that he/she wants
to include, he/she can configure each of them (under
construction).
For example, in Personalized News, the carer can setup
different preferences like languages, newspapers or
events, or in entertainment, he/she can select radio
stations, websites, etc.
In addition, the carer can also access from here to the
Reminder Service or Social News Service.
