Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2015185999A1] The present invention relates to a method for sending a message from a sender to an anonymous receiver, wherein the anonymity of the receiver is maintained and wherein the sender is a person or an automated system like a computer or another electronic, electric, mechanical, or electromechanical system capable of sending a message and wherein the receiver is a specific anonymous individual, comprising several steps. To enable the sender to send a message to a specific anonymous receiver, in a first step a uniquely distinguishing anonymous characteristic of that receiver is determined, preferably by the receiver him/herself, or by the sender, or by another party on behalf of either receiver or sender and wherein the values of the one or more parameters defining the characteristic are measured. After the values of said parameters) are established, they are used in a following step to produce an encrypted anonymous numerical or alphanumerical code, which is uniquely distinguishing the anonymous receiver as well, in order to advance maintaining the anonymity of the receiver.
