Abstract
Automatic identification and creation of user profiles is provided. Interaction data for various users within a subscriber account is collected. Unique user profiles are automatically identified and created based on the interaction data. The identified user profiles are then matched against a plurality of available pre-categorized profiles. A unique set of settings and preferences may be applied to the user profile based on the matched pre-categorized profile and the collected interaction data. Personalization may be provided to the user upon establishment of the user profile. After creation of the user profile, additional user actions taken and the user's viewer history may be collected for further use. According to some aspects, when a user accesses a content item, notification is sent to the user to confirm a matched profile as an active profile. Once confirmation is received, associated settings and preferences are set according to the active profile.
