I have a Netflix accound for 5 people with my friends. Yesterday I gave my mother the password so that she can look at me with the Accound. That means my mother around I look at the same accound. Now, however, they are hard to get a message from Netflix. She has now deleted Netflix again. Does anyone know whether they may have to pay now? Is this forbidden?
It is prohibited according to the terms and conditions
It just doesn't work. If you only pay for 1 device, you can only watch 1 device.
You can also watch on several devices, but not at the same time. I also look at my laptop, smartphone and iPad. That was never a problem
That means it is not a problem if my mother and I do not watch Netflix at the same time on her and my cell phone on the same profile? Because she got a message.
What is prohibited about it?
In contrast to the terms of use of providers such as Sky, you can watch Netflix content as a customer on an unlimited number of devices. So installing Netflix on your mobile phone and tablet, for example, but also using the offer on your laptop and television is no problem. There are still restrictions - but they have to do with how many devices are active at the same time. (https://www.kino.de/unternehmen/netflix-2/news/netflix-wie-viele-geraete-darfst-du-nutzen/)
Using a Netflix account with several people outside your own four walls
But that me and my mother are on the same profile on her and my phone at different times is okay?
Yes that's okay. That's what it's intended for. Except with friends
Many thanks for your response!
Many Thanks!
That's right, that's forbidden. If you have to pay a fine, it is you and your friends with whom you share the account.
That means if I had an account for only 1 person. I share this with my mother, would that be okay?
Well, as long as you don't want to watch at the same time, nobody can harm you
I'm not 100% sure about that, but I would say no. But since you have the same IP address, nothing can actually happen. You can't just watch at the same time
Okay thank you very much! Then nothing will happen. Because only my mother got this message.
