What does Authorised user mean?
An authorised user is someone permitted to use an account within the applicable conditions. Permission should be established rather than inferred from possession of credentials.
Why it matters
A password can be copied or left on a device without creating legitimate authority to use the service. Keep sharing within the actual account arrangement and consider what each person needs to access. Viewing, billing administration and reseller-panel control are different levels of activity. Remove unnecessary access when equipment changes hands or a person leaves the household, using the available account controls or support route.
A practical example
For example, a guest using a television does not necessarily need the account password or the billing conversation. If account access remains on a borrowed device, contact support about the available removal or credential-change process rather than assuming that closing the player ends the guest’s ability to reopen it.
