# Users and Organizations

## Users

* When you Sign up on Spydra with an email address or Google account, you become a user.
* By default, a user is not part of any organization. Only when an organization is created or when you accept an organization invitation you'll be associated with an organization.

## Organizations

* Organizations are businesses, institutions, government agencies, or any other entity that is a participant in a blockchain network.
* Users from Spydra's Console create organizations. So an organization is always associated with a user.
* Users can be invited to collaborate with others in an Organization.
* Multiple users can be part of an organization with different access rights.
* **Your usage is billed at the Organization level.**
