Claim:
1. A method of providing labelling information to a receiving third party regarding one or more terminal users in a communication network, comprising the following steps executed by a labelling unit connected to a data mining system: receiving communication related data generated from executed communications of said one or more terminal users; fetching stored labelling rules which have been configured specifically for the third party; converting the received communication related data into labelling information, wherein a communication habits vector is determined by applying the fetched labelling rules on the received communication related data, and the labelling information is determined for the terminal user(s) based on the resulting communication habits vector, said labelling information representing a description of the terminal user(s) with respect to their communication habits, wherein the labelling rules are configured by defining the communication habits vector as a plurality of measurable communication habits parameters that correspond to different aspects of the communication habits of the terminal user(s), and configuring thresholds for each of the plurality of measurable communication habits parameters as limits for predefined user labels, classes or categories; generating a profile of the terminal user(s) by customising a user(s) profile expressed in a format used by a Data Mining Engine (DME) from which the communication related data is received; and delivering the determined labelling information to the third party, wherein the labelling information is delivered using a protocol and an interface adapted to the third party.
