By default, the start of any time limit period (i.e., the period within which a time limit applies) will be aligned with midnight (12am) on Sunday. For example:

• If you set a time limit of 10 minutes in every 6 hours, you will be allowed
  • 10 minutes between 12am and 6am
  • 10 minutes between 6am and 12pm
  • 10 minutes between 12pm and 6pm
  • 10 minutes between 6pm and 12am
• If you set a time limit of 30 minutes in every 12 hours, you will be allowed
  • 30 minutes between 12am and 12pm
  • 30 minutes between 12pm and 12am
• If you set a time limit of 60 minutes in every week, you will be allowed
  • 60 minutes between 12am on Sunday and 12am the following Sunday

The Offset time limit period field allows you to adjust this default behavior to suit your own schedule by specifying an offset (positive or negative) in hours. For example:

• If you specify an offset of 6 hours, the time limit periods will be aligned with 6am on Sunday.
• If you specify an offset of -3 hours, the time limit periods will be aligned with 9pm on Saturday.
• If you specify an offset of 24 hours, the time limit periods will be aligned with midnight (12am) on Monday.
• If you specify an offset of -36 hours, the time limit periods will be aligned with noon (12pm) on Friday.

If in doubt, just leave the offset field blank!
