Regulating credential information dissemination

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by one or more processors which, upon such execution, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, at a server and from a validating device, a request to validate a representation of a first credential associated with a first user, the request including data derived from the representation of the first credential associated with the first user and a representation of a second credential of a second user that is associated with the validating device, wherein the representation of the first credential or an indication that the representation of the first credential is being outputted is presented on a user interface shown on a display coupled to a client device corresponding to the first user, and wherein the representation of the first credential is selected from the group consisting of an alphanumeric code, an optical machine-readable representation, a sound signal, and a near-field communication signal;
• validating, by the server, the data derived from the representation of the first credential associated with the first user;
• verifying, by the server, the representation of the second credential of the second user that is associated with the validating device;
• determining, by the server and based on a relationship between the first user and the second user, a level of access that is provided to the second user for access to information associated with the first user;
• based on validating the data derived from the representation of the first credential and verifying the representation of the second credential of the second user that is associated with the validating device, determining, by the server, data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device,
• wherein the data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device includes a first set of data that is available only when the representation of the second credential of the second user associated with the validating device is verified, wherein the first set of data is selected based on determining the level of access that is provided to the second user for access to information associated with the first user, and a second set of data that is available independent of verifying the representation of the second credential of the validating device;
• and
• transmitting, by the server and to the validating device, the data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device.

A system comprising:

• instructions stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium for execution by one or more processors and upon such execution, configured to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, at a server and from a validating device, a request to validate a representation of a first credential associated with a first user, the request including data derived from the representation of the first credential associated with the first user and identification data that identifies a second user that is associated with the validating device, wherein the representation of the first credential or an indication that the representation of the first credential is being outputted is presented on a user interface shown on a display coupled to a client device corresponding to the first user, and wherein the representation of the first credential is selected from the group consisting of an alphanumeric code, an optical machine-readable representation, a sound signal, and a near-field communication signal;
• validating, by the server, the data derived from the representation of the first credential associated with the first user;
• verifying, by the server, the identification data that identifies the second user that is associated with the validating device;
• determining, by the server and based on a relationship between the first user and the second user, a level of access that is provided to the second user for access to information associated with the first user;
• based on validating the data derived from the representation of the first credential and verifying the identification data that identifies the second user that is associated with the validating device, determining, by the server, data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device,
• wherein the data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device includes a first set of data that is available only when the identification data that identifies the second user that is associated with the validating device is verified, wherein the first set of data is selected based on determining the level of access that is provided to the second user for access to information associated with the first user, and a second set of data that is available independent of verifying the identification data that identifies the second user that is associated with the validating device;
• and
• transmitting, by the server and to the validating device, the data associated with the first user that is to be shared with the validating device.
