# The Me resource

Multi-tiered assignments enable customized buyer experiences at the individual user level. The Me resource simplifies access to this personalized data.

## Easy access to inherited or personal data

The [Me Resource](https://api-docs.sitecore.com/ordercloud/me-and-my-stuff) flattens assignments for the authenticated user, providing direct access to available resources regardless of assignment level.

Example: A buyer user with addresses assigned at both buyer and usergroup levels can access all addresses through a single [me/addresses](https://api-docs.sitecore.com/ordercloud/me-addresses) call, eliminating manual resolution across multiple levels.

## Personal resource management

The Me resource provides:

- Administrative endpoints for personal resources
- Private access to credit cards and addresses
- Data privacy from administrators (except through [impersonation](https://doc.sitecore.com/ordercloud/en/developers/platform/impersonation.html))

This design ensures secure management of personal information while maintaining user privacy.
