Abstract

Computer-implemented systems and methods are described for configuring a plurality of privacy properties for a plurality of virtual objects associated with a first user and a virtual environment being accessed using a device associated with the first user, triggering for display, in the virtual environment, the plurality of virtual objects to the first user accessing the virtual environment, determining whether at least one virtual object is associated with a privacy setting corresponding to the first user. In response to determining that a second user is attempting to access the one virtual object, a visual modification may be applied to the object based on a privacy setting. The method may also include triggering for display, the visual modification of the at least one virtual object, to the second user while continuing to trigger display of the at least one virtual object without the visual modification to the first user.
