The disclosed technology relates to securely sharing data between a hearing care professional (HCP) and a hearing device user. For example, the disclosed technology relates to securely accessing fitting data for a hearing device. The disclosed technology includes a hearing device that has a memory, where the memory stores a key that can be used for encryption and decryption. The key can be a symmetrical key. In addition to storing a key, the hearing device can store a uniform resource indicator (URI) in its memory.

Securely sharing data between a hearing device, hearing device user, and data storage

A method for controlling and/or configuring a user-specific hearing system using a computing and/or communication device. The hearing system includes at least one hearing device customizable according to the individual hearing ability and/or preferences of a user of the hearing system. The method includes connecting the hearing system to a server via a network, connecting the computing and/or communication device to the server via the network, providing by the server a hearing system control and/or configuration service tailored to the user-specific hearing system to the computing and/or communication device, determining and/or selecting at the computing and/or communication device control data and/or configuration data using the hearing system control and/or configuration service, sending the control and/or configuration data from the computing and/or communication device to the hearing system, and adjusting the hearing system based on control and/or configuration data received at the hearing system.

Method for controlling and/or configuring a user-specific hearing system via a communication network

The method for adjusting a hearing system to individual hearing needs and preferences of a specific hearing system user by means of a fitting system comprising a visual display comprises:

Fitting system and method for fitting a hearing system

A method for adjusting a hearing device () to individual needs of a hearing device user includes the steps of operationally connecting the hearing device () to a fitting device () with a display unit (), displaying a hearing threshold level () of the hearing device user as a function of frequencies on the display unit (), displaying characteristics of a predefined sound sample () on the display unit (), and adjusting the input/output behavior such that at least a part of the predefined sound sample () lies above the hearing threshold level () at corresponding frequencies. An arrangement for adjusting a hearing device () is also provided.
