# Event Moderators

Moderators have permissions. Based on those permissions these people can do certain things in your event.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Keep permissions minimal.** Only give people the access they need to do their work.
{% endhint %}

<details>

<summary><strong>3 types of moderators</strong></summary>

* [Supermoderator](https://docs.eventication.com/company/features/company-moderators)
* [Platform moderator](/event/general/moderators/platform-moderators.md)
* [Hardware moderator](/event/general/moderators/hardware-moderators.md)

</details>

## Permissions

Permissions **determine which parts** of the backend a moderator **can acces, view and/or edit**.

<details>

<summary>Examples of permissions</summary>

* *View a substation*
* *Edit accreditation*
* *Get information based on QR codes*
* *Check people in & out of event*

</details>

## Limit when enabled

You can **add a start and end date to each moderator**. Outside of those dates, their permissions are automatically inactive.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Best practice:** Set an active date range so access expires automatically when it's no longer needed.
{% endhint %}
