In India, Netflix is taking action against password sharing by reminding users via email that their accounts are only intended for usage inside a single household. To promote individual use, the corporation is highlighting new features, including Transfer Profile, Manage Access, and Devices.
The global leader in streaming, Netflix, has outlined its strategy to stop password-sharing in India. The business started sending emails to its clients across the nation. These communications make it quite obvious that subscriptions are intended to be used by a single household.
According to a Netflix official statement, “Starting today, we will be sending this email to members who are sharing account access outside their household in India.”
It was said that a account is for use by one household, meaning that everyone who resides in that household is able to access Netflix whenever they like, whether it be at home, when traveling, or while on vacation. They can also benefit from additional tools like Transfer Profile and Manage Access and Devices.
“We are aware that our members have a wide variety of entertainment options. There is always something enjoyable to watch on Netflix, regardless of your taste, mood, language, or who you are watching with, it said. For this reason, we continue to invest extensively in a broad variety of new films and TV episodes.
These limitations on password sharing were implemented by Netflix earlier this year in more than 100 nations, including well-known markets like the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Australia, Singapore, Brazil, and Mexico.
Additionally, it gave paying clients the choice to add a second person from outside their family, subject to an additional monthly charge. This charge is fixed at $8 (or 660) in the US. Members have the option to transfer a person’s profile, preserving their viewing history and customized suggestions, to guarantee a smooth experience.
These steps are being taken as Netflix tries out new tactics and regulations to tackle the pervasive practice of password sharing, which is thought to affect over 100 million homes worldwide. A total of 232.5 million paying subscribers were listed as Netflix’s subscriber base as of March.
