# About the Types of Webshare User Accounts

There are three types of Webshare user accounts: Visitors and Webshare Managers. Each one is described below.

- Visitors
- User Accounts
- Webshare Managers

Visitors

HP Photo Webshare albums can be shared with people outside your local network, called visitors. If you use the HP Media Vault Server for personal use, visitors may be family or friends such as Grandma or Aunt Karen. If you use the Server for business, visitors may be your customers or business partners.

Visitors can have different levels of access to albums. At a basic level, visitors can view photos in the albums you choose to share with them. If you select to give visitors additional permissions, they can add photos to albums or save photos to their computers.

Visitors can be assigned to one or more groups. When you share albums, you select individual visitors or groups of visitors to notify that there is a new album available to view.

User Accounts

Server user accounts are different from visitors. Server users can also use HP Photo Webshare. For more information, see Creating a User.

Webshare Managers

Webshare Managers have access to all HP Photo Webshare features, including viewing and managing content in all albums, sharing albums with people outside the home network, and approving album content added by people that share the album. At least one Webshare Manager user account should be created before you can log on to the HP Photo Webshare. For more information, see Before You Begin.
