Explanation

A reader account (formerly called a 'read-only account') is a special Snowflake account type created by a data provider to allow consumers who do not have their own Snowflake account to access shared data. Reader account users can ONLY query the data shared with them. They cannot load new data into Snowflake, update or modify existing data, or create new data shares. The provider pays for all compute costs incurred by reader account queries. This makes reader accounts ideal for sharing data with external partners who do not have Snowflake subscriptions.
