Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication module, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a first user context of a first user from a first user device and a second user context of a second user from a second user device via the communication module, to determine when the first user and the second user are within a specified distance, by using location information in the first and second user contexts, to set permissions to access at least a portion of the first and/or second user contexts based on the determination, to receive a request from the first user for information in the second user context, and to provide the information in the second user context to the first user when the permissions of the second user context allows the first user to access the information in the second user context.
