Information processing system, information processing method, information processing device, information processing terminal, for dynamically changing information that forms the basis of a displayed screen

An information processing method, executed using a central processing unit and a memory, comprising:

• sequentially acquiring an image near an information processing terminal taken by a camera included in the information processing terminal;
• analyzing the image;
• estimating a number of people who are present near the information processing terminal based on a result of analyzing the image;
• and
• when it is detected that the estimated number of people who are present near the information processing terminal is changed from less than a predetermined number to the predetermined number or more:
• determining a secrecy level based on the estimated number of people who are present near the information processing terminal which is the predetermined number or more;
• determining first information elements for limitation based on the determined secrecy level among second information elements each of which is associated with a particular secrecy level;
• and
• changing a content of a first web page, which displays a first content and which is displayed on the display and which is based on all of the second information elements, to that of a second web page, which displays a second content and which is based on the second information elements except the first information elements for limitation,
• wherein changing content of a first web page with the first content to a second web page with the second content includes:
• adding the second content to the second web page that was not displayed on the first web page, and
• ceasing to display the first content from the first web page on the second web page;
• wherein the first content is tailored to a first user's purchase history or access history, and
• wherein the added second content to the second web page is content that is irrespective of the first user's purchase history or access history.

An information processing system, comprising:

• an information processing terminal comprising:
• a display;
• and
• a camera taking an image near the information processing terminal, and a server comprising:
• a central processing unit;
• and
• a memory storing programming information causing the central processing unit to be configured to:
• sequentially acquire the image near the information processing terminal taken by the camera;
• analyze the image;
• estimate a number of people who are present near the information processing terminal based on a result of analyzing the image;
• and
• when it is detected that the estimated number of people who are present near the information processing terminal is changed from less than a predetermined number to the predetermined number or more:
• determine a secrecy level based on the estimated number of people who are present near the information processing terminal which is the predetermined number or more;
• determine first information elements for limitation based on the determined secrecy level among second information elements each of which is associated with a particular secrecy level;
• and
• change a content of a first web page, which displays a first content and which is displayed on the display and which is based on all of the second information elements, to that of a second web page, which displays a second content and which is based on the second information elements except the first information elements for limitation,
• wherein changing content of a first web page with the first content to a second web page with the second content includes:
• adding the second content to the second web page that was not displayed on the first web page, and
• ceasing to display the first content from the first web page on the second web page;
• wherein the first content is tailored to a first user's purchase history or access history, and
• wherein the added second content to the second web page is content that is irrespective of the first user's purchase history or access history.
