    No one here can really tell you 100% whether you would be banned or not. It's recommended that you keep your console as your Home console (which is really best if you have to play offline), but you shouldn't be banned for having someone else's console set
    as your Home console. However, if you share your login information in order to do so, that does violate the code of conduct.

  6. This has always been somewhat of a loophole in terms of the way their policies are phrases. In short, though, the answer to your question is no, you won't get banned.

    Usage rules for digital games purchased on Xbox Consoles

    Xbox One Digital Games

    How many consoles can I use a game on?

    You'll get a device license and a user license to every game you download from the Xbox Store. You can designate one console as your “Home” console and multiple users can select the same console for their Home console. The device license will automatically
    attach to your Home console, even if it’s not the console you're making the purchase from. As the purchaser of the game, the user license will be associated with your Xbox Live account.

    Who can use my game?

    Anyone can use your game on your Home console under your device license. When you log onto any other console with your Xbox Live account, you may use all games to which you have a user license.

    Can I change my Home console to a different console?

    You can change which console is your Home console up to 3 times during a one year period (365 days). When you change Home consoles, all device licenses for digital content will move to your new Home console and will no longer be available on your old “Home”
    console.

  7. As Smwutches has already stated, in order to share with your cousin who is out of state you would have to share your login details (violation of TOS), and then have to sign in to each others profiles (also violation of TOS). So yes, you can be banned for
    violating the TOS.

    From the link shared by kolea 1984:

    What are some specific examples of marketplace theft?

    Marketplace theft includes, but isn’t limited to:

    Transferring licenses to your console from an account that you didn’t create.

    Sharing account credentials.

    What sort of enforcement can I expect for marketplace theft?

    If you involve yourself with marketplace theft, your account can be permanently suspended. Especially egregious or repeated violations may lead to a device ban.

  9. In this specific case, if he shares his account credentials and let's the other person use his account, then yes it would be against the rules. As long as you don't do that, though, it's condonable.
