UTILIZING INTER-DEVICE COMMUNICATIONS AND USER PERMISSIONS FOR CAPTURING DIGITAL IMAGES AT EVENTS

The present disclosure relates to methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media for using inter-device communications and user permissions to capture and transmit digital images of users who have opted in for other computing devices capturing their images at an event. For example, the disclosed systems can receive registration information corresponding to a user attending an event, including whether the user opts in to having digital images of the user captured during the event. During the event, the disclosed systems can provide the current location of the user to other computing devices at the event. Upon detecting a trigger, one or more of the computing devices can capture (and encrypt) a digital image of the user and provide the digital image for access by the user. The disclosed systems can also modify a digital image of the user to censor an image of the user from the digital image or prevent computing devices from capturing digital images of the user entirely based on indications provided by the user.
