The present invention relates to a system-implemented method of determining compatibility and facilitating matching between users of the method. More particularly, the present invention caters to users who include single individuals as well as their families and helps to ensure a match not only in physical attributes, socio-cultural and socio-economic backgrounds, and values and ideals, but also in interests, aspirations, lifestyles, personality traits, and relationship goals and, consequently, time frames for marriage. The present invention provides users with a selective, stage-based profile privacy control mechanism, allowing them to control which prospects may view which specific fields or sections of their profile and at what stage of their interactions with those prospects. Further, the present invention collects and processes not only users' partner preferences but also information on the relative importance of the various indicated preferences both across possible matching criteria and within each criterion. |
