Abstract
Methods and systems are used to share data as authorized by a provider for review by a recipient. Rich content, such as video, still images and audio, may be captured and automatically uploaded to a network-accessible location. The uploaded rich content may then be shared with a recipient (e.g., a recipient designated by the provider, etc.). As the recipient reviews the uploaded rich content, the amount of the rich content played by the recipient can be tracked, and the provider may be notified of whether or not the recipient has accessed the shared information and/or the extent to which the shared information was reviewed.
