- a delegation device that delegates one or more permissions relating to said service via a delegation device wherein said delegation device comprises a global positioning system receiver for determining a location of said delegation device at a time said delegation of one or more of said permissions occurs;
- and
- one or more servers that use said location to control access to the service.
A system for monitoring delegation information comprising:
- a delegation device that delegates one or more permissions via a delegation device wherein said delegation device comprises a global positioning system receiver for determining a location of said delegation device at a time said delegation of one or more of said permissions occurs;
