So, I'm super new here to DnD Beyond and I wanted to check on how exactly the shared access works when you invite players to your Campaign for the purposes of making characters and such. As an aside, I'm working with a Master Tier sub and I've got the source book bundle (where that part matters). My hope for how it works is that the players can access under their own account all the options my account provides but they don't have the ability to delete anything I want them to, or be able to use payment information on my account, or just do anything like that that nobody would want someone else to be able to do. I know this is a little bit paranoid, but I just want to make sure as I couldn't find anything directly addressing my over anxious issues. Thanks in advance!
Master Tier Subs let you share access to purchased content. In a campaign, whether you created it or not, you can choose to enable content sharing. When enabled, every player can then share all purchased content from all players in the campaign.
Sharing means they can view the compendium details (read the books), look up details in the Search tools and crosslinking, and can use the options on their character sheet that is assigned to them in the campaign (so they could choose unlocked Races or subclass or feats, etc).
Your personal information, such as payment information or billing address, will not be shared and they cannot delete anything from you or change anything. They won't even know who is sharing what or who has enabled content sharing.
It's perfectly safe, have no fear.

Thanks very much @Cyb3rM1nd, I figured it was but I have an excessive amount of caution in my blood, lol. "Can they steal my identity with this shiz?" was the question I may as well have asked, xD. Thanks again. :)
We have an issue in our group.. while everything works as described, the players can only access races at char generation from „basic rules“, „elemental evil..“ and „player‘s habdbook“ - although also master‘s tier with source book bundle. - And the players can access the books and read them.. ? Anybody has any clue? Thanks!

Characters have to be in the campaign to access shared content for character building. Are the characters in question in the campaign? If so, try turning campaign sharing off and then back 9n again. If not, there’s your problem.
That (=subscribing the chars to the campaign) solved the problem! It is not very intuitive that one has to create a char and go through all the steps and at the end subscribe it and then start all over..
