Profile exchange method and system

A device-readable medium having stored therein a plurality of programming instructions, which when executed on a device, the instructions cause the device to:

• provide first profile data comprising a first plurality of data elements;
• receive exchange signals from a device, the exchange signals carrying exchange data, the exchange data comprising an exchange property;
• identify the exchange property as one of an approved property and an unapproved property;
• and
• at least one of transmit first profile signals to and receive second profile signals from the device in response to the exchange property being an approved property, the first profile signals containing the first profile data and the second profile signals containing a second profile data, the second profile data comprising a second plurality of data elements,
• wherein the exchange property is one of an identifier of the device, a characteristic of the second profile data and one of the second plurality of data elements.

A profile exchange system comprising:

• means for providing first profile data comprising a first plurality of data elements;
• means for receiving exchange signals from a device, the exchange signals carrying exchange data, the exchange data comprising an exchange property;
• means for identifying the exchange property as one of an approved property and an unapproved property;
• and
• means for at least one of transmitting first profile signals to and receiving second profile signals from the device in response to the exchange property being an approved property, the first profile signals containing the first profile data and the second profile signals containing a second profile data, the second profile data comprising a second plurality of data elements,
• wherein the exchange property is one of an identifier of the device, a characteristic of the second profile data and one of the second plurality of data elements.
