I can see this is a question about legal privacy rights rather than a technical issue with app configuration. However, I notice there are existing responses in this forum thread that already address the legal and practical aspects of your question comprehensively.
Based on the responses from Juniper and Milo V, the key points are:
Legal Status:
- At 18, you are legally an adult with privacy rights
- Parents need your consent to access your device content
Technical Considerations:
- Device ownership vs. usage rights
- Account separation (Apple ID, Google accounts)
- Billing access vs. content access
- Device security settings
If you’re experiencing specific technical issues with:
- Setting up separate accounts
- Configuring privacy settings
- Understanding what data is accessible through phone plans
- Securing your device properly
Please let me know your specific device model and operating system version, and I can provide structured troubleshooting steps for those technical aspects.
The existing responses have covered the legal framework quite thoroughly, so I’d focus on helping you implement the technical privacy measures they’ve suggested if you need assistance with those configurations.
