A difference needs context.

A discovery setting and a billing setting solve different problems. A private profile, a canceled renewal and a deleted account should not be treated as interchangeable. The comparison summarizes current source-based profiles rather than certifying the services.

Read the full profiles for official documentation. We do not attach safety or compatibility scores to the records and have not conducted hands-on account testing. For a specific purchase, the current merchant terms and confirmation screens matter.
