5. the storage means stores, in the database, biometric information for each of the plurality of users, an individual ID for each of a plurality of service providers that respectively provide services using biometric authentication, and attribute information in association with each other; The server device of claim 2 further comprises a behavior history control means that extracts users from the plurality of users for whom behavior histories are to be generated based on the attribute information, transmits the individual IDs used by each service provider to manage the extracted users to each of the plurality of service providers, thereby acquiring behavior histories of users corresponding to the individual IDs from each of the plurality of service providers, and provides an external behavior history that integrates the acquired behavior histories.

6. The ID linkage control means receiving a notification of successful authentication from a service provider who has successfully performed biometric authentication on the person to be authenticated, the notification including the individual ID and behavior history of the person to be authenticated who has successfully performed biometric authentication on the person to be authenticated; The server device according to claim 2 , wherein the action history included in the authentication success notification is stored in an entry of the database corresponding to the individual ID included in the authentication success notification.

7. The ID linkage control means receiving a notification of successful authentication from a service provider who has successfully performed biometric authentication on the person to be authenticated, the notification including the individual ID and authentication history of the person to be authenticated who has successfully performed biometric authentication on the person to be authenticated; 3. The server device according to claim 2, wherein the authentication history included in the authentication success notification is stored in an entry of the database corresponding to the individual ID included in the authentication success notification.

8. a storage step of storing, in a database, biometric information for each of a plurality of users and an individual ID for each of a plurality of service providers that provide services using biometric authentication, in association with each other; an ID linking control step of acquiring, from a first service provider, biometric information of a first user and a first individual ID used by the first service provider to manage the first user, and, if a matching process using the acquired biometric information of the first user and biometric information stored in the database is successful, storing the biometric information of the first user and the first individual ID in association with each other in an entry of the database identified by the matching process; A method for controlling a server device, comprising:

9. The computer installed in the server device a storage process for storing, in a database, biometric information for each of a plurality of users and an individual ID for each of a plurality of service providers that provide services using biometric authentication in association with each other; an ID linking control process for acquiring, from a first service provider, biometric information of a first user and a first individual ID used by the first service provider to manage the first user, and, if a matching process using the acquired biometric information of the first user and biometric information stored in the database is successful, storing the biometric information of the first user and the first individual ID in association with each other in an entry of the database identified by the matching process; A program to execute.
