Enable Parental Controls on Paramount Plus
So, to turn on Parental Controls, launch a web browser on your computer, head to paramountplus.com/account, and log in to your account.
Click your profile icon at the upper-right corner of the screen and click Account from the menu.
On your Account page scroll down a bit and find the “Profiles & Parental Controls” section. Toggle on the switch next to Parental Controls. Then type in the password for your Paramount Plus account and click Submit.
Set Up Parental Controls
Now type in a PIN code that only you know. It will be required to watch restricted content. Then select your Restriction Level. You can choose from Adult for mature content, Teens for PG-13 or TV-14, Older Kids from TV-Y7 up to PG, or All Kids for TV-Y. You can also choose to lock or unlock Live TV. If locked, your PIN will be required to watch it. When you’re finished click Save.
That’s all there is to it. Now when your kid(s) tries to watch something with the age restriction you set, your PIN code will be required to watch it.
