Abstract
Systems and methods are described for controlling playback of media assets. In some aspects, the systems and methods described detect a first user within proximity of a user equipment device. The systems and methods detect a second user, who is restricted from accessing a media asset on the user equipment device without a first user within proximity of the user equipment device who has a content authorization level higher than the second user. Processing circuitry measures the first user's engagement level with the user equipment device. The processing circuitry retrieves a threshold value from the user equipment's memory and determines whether the measured engagement level of the first user with the user equipment device is above the retrieved threshold. If the measured engagement level of the first user with the user equipment device is above the threshold, processing circuitry enables access to the media asset.
