US Patent 10261958 Generating an association between confidential data and member attributes

In an example embodiment, a submission of confidential data is received from a user. A first service is queried using an identification of the user to obtain a member profile corresponding to the user in a social networking service. One or more primary attribute values are identified from the member profile. The one of the primary attribute values are used to query a second service to obtain a derived attribute value corresponding to the one or more primary attribute values. The confidential data, one or more of the primary attribute values, and the derived attribute value are stored in a first submission table in a confidential information database. Then the one or more of the primary attribute values and the derived attribute value are used to classify the user into one or more slices.
