-Permissions are as follows: 

-Owner (Full Control): These users can do everything Visitors, and Members can do, plus they can maintain site security, add additional web parts and manage navigation. 

-Members (Edit): These users can read and download and can also add, edit and delete content (documents, pages, announcements, events). They can also share stuff with others. 

-Visitors (Read): The only thing these users can do is read and download. 

(Permissions can get even more specific, but these are the most common levels. If you need help with tweaking a permission level further for a user, you are welcome to contact Techline for help)
