The following access types for users
Anonymous user: Users that have not logged in. They are not allowed to perform actions on the platform. They only have limited access to public content and are not able to see the profiles of members.

Authenticated users (guests) are the users who are authenticated through EU log-in and who must request to join an organisation to be verified by the organisation manager of their organisation.
Authenticated Users are logged-in, non-verified users with limited access to PICS. They are able to see the list of organisations and make requests for membership in an organization.
They are NOT able to:
- View other PICS members' profiles;
- View communities;
- Change their notification settings;
- View, create and share content.
What is the difference between authenticated users and verified users?
If a membership request to join an organization from a authenticated users (logged-in, non-verified user) is accepted, the user status changes to verified. A verified user has more rights than a authenticated users . They can view other PICS members' profiles, view communities, groups, events, discussions etc. and create content (events, topics, tasks, discussions, groups).
