It is used for both, and a few more things. It's used to establish one or more identities for yourself online. This is useful if you want to do the following: 1. Associate an item that was purchased with the buyer identity. 2. Associate an item that was sold with the vendor identity. 3. Provide an entry point for discovery of a preferred payment processor. 4. Rate the buyer identity. 5. Rate the vendor identity. 6. Store information in the identity, such as a proof of citizenship, in order to make proving that sort of information easier over the Web. > Is there some UML State/Sequence diagram available somewhere?
