# User Types and Access Levels

Logikcull permissions are determined through **user types** and **access levels**. Each user must be assigned a user type, and when giving a user access to a project, their access level is determined.

## User Types

**User types** determine the permissions a user has at the account level. Each user is assigned one user type.

> 
> Project Creators do not have to be Project Admins for all of their accessible projects. You may assign a Project Creator any user access level.

> [!WARNING]
> Important
> 
> If you change User Type to Account Admin, that will give the user access to the entire account, so all projects will be selected by default.

## User Access Levels

**Access levels** determine the permissions a user has at the project level. Unlike user types, a user can have different access levels depending on the project. For example, when adding a new user and assigning projects, an overall user type is selected. Then, access level can be determined for one or more projects.
