Steps To Reproduce

After user is invited to an organization as "User". The user cannot see his own personal vault. Only the organization vault. But when searching logins etc., the user can still find them.

After changing the user role to "Admin". The user is now able to see the personal vault and create new logins etc.

Expected Result

Users should be able to use their own vault when they belong to an organization.

Actual Result

"My vault" will be disappeared when you join the organization as "User".

Logs

Screenshots or Videos

User with "User" -role. Only the organization is visible.

The same user as "Admin" role. Also the My vault is visible.

Additional Context

[BlackDex]

This is probably a client side bug, it might be fixed when using the :testing tagged release which is using a newer version of the web-vault.
It might also be a organization policy maybe, but that would be strange if the personal items would still be visible then.

[Pyrdee]

This is a new install. I should not have organization policys like this. When we tried this with browser add-on we are getting this error:
"Due to an Enterprise Policy, you are restricted from saving items to your personal vault."

[Pyrdee]

My fault. I had the setting: Enforce organization data ownership On. But it is still weird why this only affects to the role user and not to admins.

[BlackDex]

Some policies do not affect admin or owners.
