NOOK
Create a Restricted Profile
Simple-to-use parental controls help create a
“kid-safe” experience on your NOOK. Using parental
controls, you can limit the types of content that child
profiles can view and purchase. You set up parental
controls when you create a child profile. You can
adjust them later if you like by editing the child
profile.
Using parental controls, you can control whether or
not a specific child profile can:
•
Browse the NOOK Shop
•
Purchase from NOOK Shop only when using your
NOOK account password
•
Shop only for kids’ content in the NOOK Shop
•
Access Reads for kids
