METHOD FOR BILLING THE WITHDRAWAL OF INFORMATION FROM DATABASES

摘要

The invention relates to a method for using databases, which contain information and which can be accessed via a communications network, in particular via a telephone network or the Internet, whereby access is gained by means of a terminal, e.g. a computer, which is connected to said network. According to the invention, a withdrawal of information by the user via a terminal is registered and an account, to which an information withdrawal can be billed, is assigned. The user can build up a positive balance in said account by entering his/her own information in said database.
