Need son's password(s) to put SmartLimits on his phone?

Do I need to know any of my son's passwords (unlock code, iCloud, iTunes, etc.) in order to put SmartLimits on his phone?  Or as the main account holder, do I already have the necessary access to put the SmartLimits on his phone?

You don't put anything on his phone, so no passwords are needed.

Nor does it block anything they can do over wifi. Smartlimits only restricts cellular data.

Actually smart limits only blocks cell data now...  You can set times anymore its either block it all or none.  And I can do that without smart limits.
