public final class PrivacyListManager
extends Manager

A PrivacyListManager is used by XMPP clients to block or allow communications from other users. Use the manager to:

• Retrieve privacy lists.
• Add, remove, and edit privacy lists.
• Set, change, or decline active lists.
• Set, change, or decline the default list (i.e., the list that is active by default).

Privacy Items can handle different kind of permission communications based on JID, group, subscription type or globally (see PrivacyItem).
