[0011] Preferably, the method for generating a private key for accessing the first data under the regional link includes: S41, identifying the QR code when the client accesses the network; S42, obtaining the region link under the QR code and performing network access to obtain the necessary information.

[0012] Preferably, the method for generating a private key for accessing the first data includes: S43, using the ID address of the merchant user terminal that enters the necessary information and the data entry time as a seed share, wherein the time is specific to seconds; S43, inputting into a hash function based on the seed share to generate a data item; S44.
