Abstract
A system and method for identifying, managing, and synchronizing delivery and storage of promotional material to computing devices associated with a user. The system and method are configured to receive a request from one or more of the user's computing devices to synchronize the delivery of the promotional material to at least a portion of the user's device portfolio. Advantageously, the action triggering the sending of the synchronization request may include an interaction with the promotional material or an interaction with a web service application.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- generating, by a synchronization module executed by a computing device, a synchronization request in response to at least one of:
- a launch of a web service, a powering on of the computing device, a launch of an application associated with the web service, a request to update user profile information, or a launch of a program associated with the synchronization module, wherein the synchronization request comprises the user profile information;
- receiving, by a promotional material synchronization computer, the synchronization request comprising the user profile information;
- identifying, by the promotional material synchronization computer, promotional material previously transmitted to a different computing device, wherein the identifying is based at least in part on the synchronization request and the user profile information;
- and
- sending, by the promotional material synchronization computer to the computing device, the promotional material previously transmitted to the different computing device.
A system comprising:
- a synchronization module executed by a computing device, the synchronization module configured to generate a synchronization request in response to at least one of:
- a launch of a web service, a powering on of the computing device, a launch of an application associated with the web service, a request to update user profile information, or a launch of a program associated with the synchronization module, wherein the synchronization request comprises the user profile information;
- and
- a promotional material synchronization computer configured to communicatively connect to the synchronization module executed by the computing device, the promotional material synchronization computer configured to:
- receive the synchronization request comprising the user profile information;
- identify promotional material previously transmitted to a different computing device, wherein the identifying is based at least in part on the synchronization request and the user profile information;
- and
- send, to the computing device, the promotional material previously transmitted to the different computing device.
A method comprising:
- sending, by a promotional material synchronization computer, promotional to a first computing device associated with a user, wherein the promotional material is sent in response to an interaction with a first web service;
- storing, by the promotional material synchronization computer, an association between the promotional material and profile information of a user;
- initiating, by a synchronization module executable by a second computing device, a synchronization request in response to at least one of:
- a launch of a second web service, a powering on of the second computing device, a launch of an application associated with the second web service, a request to update the profile information, or a launch of a program associated with the synchronization module;
- receiving, by the promotional material synchronization computer, the synchronization request comprising the profile information;
- identifying, by the promotional material synchronization computer, the promotional material previously sent to the first computing device based at least in part on the synchronization request and the profile information;
- and
- sending, by the promotional material synchronization computer to the second computing device, the promotional material previously stored on the first computing device.
