1. A privacy management system, comprising:
a computing system comprising one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the computing system to:
monitor a location of a user device;
detect use of an application on the user device by a user;
in response to the location of the user device corresponding to a public area during the use of the application on the user device, initiate a first privacy action of one or more privacy actions with respect to information on a display screen of the user device and instruct a camera of the user device to capture image data during the use of the application on the user device;
analyze the image data to detect a presence of one or more background objects and determine whether the one or more background objects correspond to one or more target object types;
in response to detecting the presence of the one or more background objects that correspond to the one or more target object types, initiate a second privacy action of the one or more privacy actions with respect to the information on the display screen of the user device;
display a prompt to request user input of approval or disapproval of the one or more background objects; and
end at least the second privacy action of the one or more privacy actions in response to receipt of the user input of approval of the one or more background objects.
