Abstract

The invention relates to a method of invoking privacy related to a user equipment () capable of accepting push messages in communications network, which push message is a message a server may send to the user equipment () without the user of the user equipment () asking for it and the server having the ability to be able to act as a push message initiator. The method comprises the steps of: (i) sending a first request for the personal user data from the user equipment () to an origin server () over a first channel (A); (ii) the origin server () sending a request for personal user data to a supporting server (); (iii) the supporting server () sending a push message over a narrow band channel (C) to the user equipment () indicating said request for the user data made by the origin server (); (iv) the user equipment () responding to the push message at least by an allowing message or a disallowing message for the request of data over said narrow band channel; and (v) the supporting server () providing the data to the origin server () at least partly in response to the allowing message, and rejecting the data providing otherwise.
