A system and method for providing access to data of a user or services relevant to a user. A customer data key is created by a server that is specific to an application, the user of the application, and the device upon which the application resides. The server may receive an application programming interface call to create the customer data key; however, any call accessing or affecting user-specific data which does not contain a valid and authorized customer data key may be rejected. To authorize access to the offered data or services, the user conducts an entirely separate transaction not mediated by the application. During this separate transaction, the customer data key may be activated, permitting access to the data or services using the activated customer data key. |
