English term or phrase: hint question
En un portal online se ofrece la opción: "Update hint questions". ¿Me sabrían confirmar si "hint question" es sinónimo de "password hint", o conlleva alguna sutileza? El texto se dirige a hispanohablantes en EE.UU.

Mil gracias de antemano.

Explanation:
En muchos portales hint question se traduce como pregunta secreta. Update hint questions se traduciría como Actualizar pregunta secreta. Password hint es una "sugerencia de contraseña"

Asker: Saludos, Yayo, demasiado tiempo :) En este caso más bien se trataría de una pregunta que aporta una pista con respecto a la contraseña, ¿no?
