The process of disconnecting a Netflix account from a television device ensures that personal viewing preferences and account security are maintained. This action effectively removes the active profile from the device, preventing unauthorized access to the account and viewing history.
Disconnecting an account from a shared or public television is essential for privacy. Furthermore, it’s a recommended practice when selling or donating a television that has been used to access the streaming service. Regular disconnection also provides control over the number of active devices utilizing a single subscription, allowing for optimal subscription management.
