Can someone explain the difference between:
 
 Identities 
 Categories 
 Tags 
 Vaults 
 Collections 
 Accounts 
 
 They all seem to be ways of organizing your information.  What would be a reason one would choose one over another.   Thanks.

In that case, because you can only access your “part” of the family account, the term “account” could be used to refer to either:
- the 1Password Families account as a whole
- your “user” within that account
It may be convenient to think of it that you have a user account which is part of the family account.
