Abstract

A method comprising maintaining a database (54) of user accounts and aerosol-generating devices (102) associated with the user accounts. Each aerosol-generating device (102) is only associable with a single user account. The method further comprises receiving an unlock request from a present aerosol-generating device (102) to unlock an unlockable feature of the present aerosol-generating device. The unlock request comprises unique user-identification information identifying a present user account to be associated with the present aerosol-generating device. The method further comprises determining whether the present aerosol-generating device is already associated with any user accounts in the database (54), transmitting an unlock grant to the present aerosol-generating device to unlock the unlockable feature in response to determination that the present aerosol-generating device is not already associated with any user accounts in the database, and updating the database to associate the present user account with the present aerosol-generating device in response to determination that the present aerosol-generating device is not already associated with any user accounts in the database.
