!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a [software] [agent] that is acting on behalf of a user. [{$pagename}] is often a [WEB] [Browser] that "retrieves, renders and facilitates end user interaction with the [World Wide Web]
[{$pagename}] acts as a [client] in a [network] [protocol] used in communications within a [client]-[Server] [Distributed system].
[{$pagename}] act as "real-life" [agents], such as [Doctors|Health Care Provider] and lawyers where they are bound by professional ethics and government licenses to use our [Personal data] in ways that benefit us as the personal [data subject].
[{$pagename}] as such will have most of the same features as a [human] [agents]:
* Expertise in some domains that involve [personal data]
* Ability for independent and autonomous action with only summary reports to the [client]
* No conflict of interest with any institution or host [entity]
* Freely chosen by the [client] or [Data subject]
!! [{$pagename}] [Examples]
* in [LDAP] a [DUA]
* an email reader is a mail [{$pagename}]
* in the [Session Initiation Protocol] [SIP], the term [{$pagename}] refers to both end points of a communications session.!! [{$pagename}] request-header[2]
The [{$pagename}] request-header field contains information about the [{$pagename}] originating the request. This is for statistical purposes, the tracing of protocol violations, and automated recognition of user agents for the sake of tailoring responses to avoid particular user agent limitations. User agents SHOULD include this field with requests. The field can contain multiple product tokens and comments identifying the agent and any subproducts which form a significant part of the user agent. By convention, the product tokens are listed in order of their significance for identifying the application.
{{{
User-Agent = "User-Agent" ":" 1*( product | comment )
}}}
Example:
{{{
User-Agent: CERN-LineMode/2.15 libwww/2.17b3
