A remote communication control system includes a session relay system that associates a connection established with an image forming apparatus with a connection established with an electronic device located outside a network to which the image forming apparatus belongs, so as to relay a session between the image forming apparatus and the electronic device. When an application is unusable via the session, the session relay system does not relay the session based on a control policy and identification information of the application as a target for the session. The control policy indicates whether which application of the image forming apparatus is usable via the session.
