Abstract

An approach is provided that registers a wearable device in response to receiving a registration request that includes a set of acceptable user states and a corresponding set of acceptable times to perform a set of actions. When the approach receives a request from the user of the network-accessible site to perform a selected one of the set of actions, the approach transmits an inquiry to the wearable device registered to the user. Then, the approach receives a current state of the user from the wearable device responding to the transmitted state inquiry and determines a current time. In turn, the approach performs the selected action at the network-accessible site in response to determining that the received current state of the user matches one of the set of acceptable states and the current time matches one of the set of acceptable times.
