 ===== Introduction =====
-Each Voucher, Permanent User and BYOD Device will have a profile attached to it. Profiles are used to control the behavior of the RADIUS client through which a user (Voucher, Permanent User or BYOD Device) connects to the network.
+A profile is assigned to each voucher, permanent user and BYOD device. Profiles are used to control the behavior of the RADIUS client through which a user (voucher, permanent user or BYOD device) connects to the network. This includes the following points:
-This will include the following:
   * Limiting the bandwidth.
-  * Limiting the total data available over a time period e.g. a monthly data cap.
+  * Limiting the total data available over a certain period of time, e.g. a monthly data cap.
-  * Preventing the user from connecting before a specified date.
+  * Preventing the user from connecting before a certain date.
-  * Preventing the user from connecting after a specified date.
+  * Preventing the user from connecting after a certain date.
 ===== Profiles and Profile Components =====
   * Each profile can consist of zero or more profile components.
-  * Profile components can be considered as small functional block or groups
+  * Profile components can be considered as small functional blocks or groups
-  * You can for instance hav a profile component which will limit the bandwidth of a user's connection.
+  * For example, you can have a profile component that limits the bandwidth of a user's connection.
 ===== Simple Edit =====
-  * The Profiles applet includes a simplified edit interface where you can choose which limits you want to impose in the profile.
+  * The Profile applet contains a simplified editing interface where you can select which restrictions you want to make in the profile.
-  * When you save it the system will generate the profile **with its profile components** based on the items selected in the simplified edit interface.
+  * When you save it, the system creates the profile with its profile components based on the elements selected in the simplified editing interface.
 ===== FUP Edit =====
-  * The Profiles applet also includes a FUP edit interface.
+  * The Profile applet also contains an interface for editing Fair Usage Policies (FUP)
   * This should be used if you want to implement Fair Usage Policies.
-  * The FUP functionality will be discussed in its own dedicated advanced page.
+  *  The FUP functionality is covered on a separate page for advanced users.
 ===== Advanced Edit =====
-  * With the advanced edit option. you can manually attach or remove Profile Components to a Profile.
+  * The advanced editing option allows you to manually add or remove profile components from a profile.
 ===== Clouds and Profiles =====
-  * A Profile is typically part of a cloud (Owned by a cloud).
+  *  A profile is usually part of a cloud (owned by a cloud).
-  * There is however the option to make a Profile system wide.
+  * However, it is possible to make a profile system-wide.
 ===== System Wide check =====
-  * If you logged into RADIUSdesk as the root user, there will be a **System Wide** checkbox that can be selected.
+   * If you have logged in to RADIUSdesk as the root user, there is a System-wide checkbox that you can activate.
-  * Selecting it will make the Profile available across clouds.
+   * If you activate it, the profile becomes available in all clouds.
