EPHEMERAL MESSAGE COMMUNICATION FROM A SENDER TO A RECIPIENT USING A MULTIMEDIA DATA ROUTED THROUGH A SERVER

摘要

A server device determines a message received from the sender device associated with an ephemeral-messaging client application accessed by the sender device which converts the message received from the sender device into a multimedia data embedded with the message based on a designated using an algorithm of the server device using a processor and a memory. The method determines a recipient device that has requested access to the message and applies a business rule when determining an access privilege of the message associated with the recipient device and a user of the recipient device. The recipient device access to the multimedia data converted from the message based on the business rule and automatically purges the message and the multimedia data from the server device based on the business rule after the multimedia data is communicated to the recipient device.
