Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a communication system and method. In one example, the communication system is disclosed to include a communication device configured for use by a primary user and a borrowing user, where use of the communication device by the primary user is governed by primary user permissions, and where use of the communication device by a borrowing user is governed by borrowing user permissions. The illustrative system is further disclosed to include computer memory having a set of user binding instructions that, when executed by a processor, enable establishment of a binding relationship between the communication device and the primary user and, so long as the binding relationship between the communication device and the primary user is maintained, enable use of the communication device to be governed by the primary user permissions instead of the borrowing user permissions.
