A telecommunications system includes at least one telecommunications device and a server that is able to communicate with the telecommunications device over a network. The telecommunications device includes: a storage section in which stored is property information that identifies the device itself uniquely; and a communications section which sends the property information to the server when communicating with the server for the first time. The server includes: a storage device; a server communications section which receives the property information; and a controller which secures a storage space associated with that property information in the storage device on receiving the property information. The controller generates account information which allows a user to have access to the storage space secured and which is associated with the property information gotten. The server communications section sends the account information to the telecommunications device that has transmitted the property information.
