Question - What are Database Privileges in Teradata?
Answer -
A database privilege is permission to access or to manipulate a database object or data. Specific privileges are required for nearly everything that can be done in the Teradata Database.

The privileges are used to control which users can:
- Access, create, modify, or delete specific database objects and data
- Execute specific macros, stored procedures, and UDFs
- Monitor system-wide activity
- Grant privileges to other users
