Any user who has read access to a project can see the complete project; only financial data and secure codes can be excluded.
You can solve this issue by separating the project - from customer's point of view - into more P6-projects. Then it's easy to create the access right as you'll need them, e.g. to allow special users only to see their data.
Hope this helps.

In a similar way you can control what activities can a user edit you shall be able to control what details he can see up to the individual field level per individual user.
Depending on how your software works controlling editing of fields can be easier than controlling what you can see and what you cannot, but it can easily be done. Just make sure you do not leave any open doors to the data you want to keep confidential.
Maybe for most PP users of P6 limiting editing is enough and providing a view only to other activities is no issue.
Be careful to transfer files along with access control. I would even recommend better use PDF files than risk exposing confidential data.
Some software allows you to purge cost data for when you need to transfer file to the Owner and you have confidential cost data into your file, this is easier and safer than using access control.
