transmitting further requests for a second data element associated with a second connection between a third user and the first user and a third data element associated with a third connection between the second user and the third user;
responsive to transmitting the further requests, receiving the data element associated with the second connection between the third user and the first user and the data element associated with the third connection between the second user and the third user;
updating, by the system server, the digital mapping to include the second connection of the social network between the first user and the third user;
based on the social graph, determining, by the system server, the second access category of the third user in relation to the first user, the access category being different from the first access category;
providing a second category list to a third user device of the third user which includes a set of category specification of the second access category offered by the first user based on a determination that the third user meets a minimum criteria of connections with the first user;
receiving a second indication, by the system server from the third user device, of a second category specification associated with the second access category from the set of category specifications; and
