Well, however you're storing your user id, just do a condition check on the user variable and use the column(n).visible( true or false);

$(document).ready(function() {
  var user = "Y";
  var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
  });
  
  if ( user == "X" ) {
    table.column( 4 ).visible( false );
  }
  else if ( user == "Y" ) {
    table.column( 2 ).visible( false );
  }
});

Here's a jsfiddle example. jsfiddle.net/lecleard/u0Lfez1j/
