Limited Users
Our Limited User feature allows you to create separate sub-accounts, called Limited Users, under one subscription plan. Each Profile will be able to have its own ratings history and recommendations tailored to the sub-account member's tastes, its own community of accessible devices, and its own Queue. You may create up to ten limited user accounts.
To create a new Limited User, the member who created the first PocketFinder® account and whose Payment Method is charged, known as the Account Owner, must click on the" Your Account" link and click on "Add Profile."
The Account Owner has access and control over each Limited User, including all of the information provided and features selected for that Limited User such as the sub-account member's name, password, maturity level and ability to participate in the community features. The Account Owner's control over Limited Users is exercised through use of the Account Owner's password and therefore to maintain exclusive control, the Account Owner should not reveal the password to anyone. In addition, if the Account Owner wishes to prohibit sub-account members from contacting PocketFinder® Customer Support and potentially altering the Account Owner's control, the Account Owner should not reveal the last 4 digits of their Payment Method to sub-account members. A Limited User’s individualized password, established by the Account Owner, allows each sub-account member to gain access to the tailored Limited User features, recommendations and Queue. All information within each Limited User is personal to that Limited User and cannot be seen by other sub-account members. The Account Owner, however, can see all such information. The Account Owner may terminate access to any Limited User by changing the sub-account member's password and not disclosing this to that sub-account member. The sub-account member will not be able to log in upon his or her next attempt to do so.
