Abstract

Upon transferring image data stored in a first information processing apparatus (photo site) to a second information processing apparatus (print site), at least one of information that pertains to whether or not the image data is to be acquired by the second information processing apparatus, information that pertains to whether or not the image data has already been acquired by the second information processing apparatus, and information that pertains to the number of times of acquisition of the image data by the second information processing apparatus is managed, and whether or not unwanted image data is transferred to the second information processing apparatus, and whether or not image data illicitly leaks to the second information processing apparatus are monitored on the basis of the managed information. The first information processing apparatus (photo site) prepares required image data in accordance with the current state of a series of processes to be executed by the second information processing apparatus (print site), and passes it to the second information processing apparatus, thereby preventing the first information processing apparatus that saves image data from passing unwanted image data to the second information processing apparatus that processes image data.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to an information processing system, an information processing device, an information processing method, and an information processing system for providing a service in which a first information processing device that stores data transfers data to a second information processing device and executes various processes such as printout processing. The device reads a storage medium storing a program for implementing the method and its program. In addition, as the above-mentioned data, image data will be described as an example below, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the provision of communication facilities and the development of information and communication technology, various services can be provided by using the Internet [0003] For example, there are sites (hereinafter referred to as photo sites) that can provide services such as receiving and stori...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] Therefore, if the user notifies the print site of canceling the print order after the image data is transferred from the photo site to the print site, the print site must receive and store the image data before actually printing out it, resulting in waste. resource problem

Also, since the image data is saved in the print site, there is a possibility that the saved image data may be used illegally regardless of whether the printout is notified to the user who has ordered printing.
