Management of data of user groups and maintenance of communication thereof

1. A method for management of group user data, the method comprising:

receiving, by one or more processors of a computing device, a request for searching contact information of a first group user, the request initialized by a second group user via an instant messaging application;

determining, by the one or more processors, a data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user;

in response to determining, by the one or more processors, that the second group user is not permitted to access and view the contact information of the first group user based on the data search permission:

returning, by the one or more processors, information other than the contact information of the first group user to a computing device associated with the second group user, the information including a call button that enables the second group user to make a request for communicating with the first group user;

receiving, by the one or more processors, the request from the second group user for communicating with the first group user;

separately obtaining, by the one or more processors, contact information of the second group user and the contact information of the first group user; and

establishing, by the one or more processors, a communication connection between the computing device associated with the second group user and a computing device associated with the first group user based on the contact information of the second group user and the contact information of the first group user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user comprises:

separately determining a group department that the first group user belongs to and a group department that the second group user belongs to under an organizational structure respectively when a hidden mode of a default data item for the first group user has been set; and

determining that the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user is irrelevant to the default data item when the group department that the first group user belongs to and the group department that the second group user belongs to are different group departments.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein determining the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user comprises:

determining that the second group user has no permission for searching complete data of the first group user if a level of a management position of the second group user is lower than a level of a management position of the first group user, when the group department that the first group user belongs to and the group department that the second group user belongs to are different group departments.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user comprises:

separately obtaining a level of a management position of the first group user and a level of a management position of the second group user under an organizational structure when an executive protection mode for the first group user has set; and

determining that the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user is irrelevant to a default data item when the level of the management position of the second group user is lower than the level of the management position of the first group user and a discrepancy of levels of management positions between the first group user and the second group user is greater than a predetermined value.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the default data item comprises the contact information of the first group user.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instant messaging application comprises a group instant messaging application.

7. A device for management of group user data, wherein the device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory to maintain a plurality of components executable by the one or more processors, the plurality of components comprising:

a first receiving module configured to receive a request for searching contact information of a first group user, the request initialized by a second group user via an instant messaging application,

a determining module configured to determine a data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user,

in response to the determining module determining that the second group user is not permitted to access and view the contact information of the first group user based on the data search permission:

a selecting module configured to return information other than the contact information of the first group user to a computing device associated with the second group user, the information including a call button that enables the second group user to make a request for communicating with the first group user,

a second receiving module configured to receive the request from the second group user for communicating with the first group user,

an acquiring module configured to separately obtain contact information of the second group user and the contact information of the first group user, and

an establishing module configured to establish a communication connection between the computing device associated with the second group user and a computing device associated with the first group user based on the contact information of the second group user and the contact information of the first group user.

8. The device of claim 7 , wherein the determining module is further configured to:

separately determine a group department that the first group user belongs to and a group department that the second group user belongs to under an organizational structure respectively when a hidden model of a default data item for the first group user has started; and

determine that the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user is irrelevant to the default data item when the group department that the first group user belongs to and the group department that the second group user belongs to are different group departments.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the determining module is further configured to:

determine that the second group user has no permission for searching complete data of the first group user if a level of a management position of the second group user is lower than a level of a management position of the first group user, when the group department that the first group user belongs to and the group department that the second group user belongs to are different group departments.

10. The device of claim 7 , wherein the determining module is further configured to:

separately obtain a level of a management position of the first group user and a level of a management position of the second group user under an organizational structure when an executive protection model for the first group user has started; and

determine that the data search permission of the second group user on the contact information of the first group user is irrelevant to a default data item when:

the level of the management position of the second group user is lower than the level of the management position of the first group user, and

a discrepancy of levels of management positions between the first group user and the second group user is greater than a predetermined value.

11. The device of claim 8 , wherein the default data item comprises the contact information of the first group user.

12. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instant messaging application comprises a group instant messaging application.
