Dependent claims

A method for profiling a telecommunications services user in a multi-platform environment (1), characterised in that it comprises:

provision to the user of access to several service delivery platforms,
provision to the user of access to a user interface,
performance of explicit user profiling comprising information on the user's preferences gathered directly from the latter via the said interface;
performance of implicit user profiling comprising raw data relative to the user's behaviour when using services originating from the said platforms, such raw data being aggregated;
based on explicit and implicit profiling thus carried out, constitution of a user profile comprising:
core attributes (9) independent from the service platform, and
specialised attributes depending on the platforms that are present in the environment.
