Abstract: An input and/or output user device handler, IODH, (212) obtains a session privacy requirement for a communication session. Based on a request for the communication session between a first I/O user device (130) of a set of I/O user devices served by the IODH and a communication service function of a network entity, the IODH determines whether the first I/O user device does not satisfy a privacy-proximity rule defined for a second I/O user device based on location relative to the second I/O user device and based on having a privacy- affecting I/O user interface capability that does not satisfy the session privacy requirement for an ongoing communication session of the second I/O user device. The IODH controls whether the communication session is setup and/or a communication capability of the communication session is allowed between the first I/O user device and the communication service function based on whether the first I/O user device satisfies the privacy-proximity rule.
