privileges
Exclusive access granted
Privileges are special rights, advantages, or immunities granted to particular people or groups.
The word often implies unearned benefits: Check your privilege asks someone to recognize advantages they take for granted.
In computing, privileges are permission levels controlling what users can access: The admin has root privileges.
To privilege something is to favor it over alternatives.
