System and method for an improved personal vaporization device

A method for authorizing operation of a vape device, wherein the vape device comprises a payload reservoir identified by a unique payload identifier, the method comprising:

• confirming an identity of a user in possession f a personal computing device;
• polling the vape device for the unique payload identifier if the identity of the user is confirmed, wherein the unique payload identifier identifies and is unique to the payload reservoir;
• receiving the unique payload identifier from the vape device;
• retrieving data stored in association with the unique payload identifier in a database and utilizing the data to determine whether the user is authorized to use the payload reservoir identified by the unique payload identifier;
• generating a security setting indicating whether the user is authorized to use the payload reservoir;
• and
• transmitting the security setting to the vape device.

A system for authorizing operation of a vape device by a user, comprising:

• a vape device comprising a payload reservoir, wherein the vape device is configured to store a unique payload identifier that identifies and is unique to the payload reservoir, and wherein the vape device is configured to transmit the unique payload identifier to a personal computing device;
• and
• an application configured to be installed on the personal computing device, wherein the application is configured to enable the personal computing device to:
• receive the unique payload identifier from the vape device;
• retrieve secondary data stored in association with the unique payload identifier in a database, wherein the secondary data comprises at least one of user information, prescription information, payload information, historical vape device usage information, and historical payload reservoir information;
• utilize the secondary data to (i) determine whether the user is authorized to use the payload reservoir identified by the unique payload identifier and (ii) determine an operational setting for the vape device;
• generate a security setting indicating whether the user is authorized to use the payload reservoir;
• and
• transmit the security setting with the operational setting to the vape device.
