GetSetting/SaveSetting and user rights

I want to use the VBA GetSetting and SaveSetting functions in VBA for an Add-In that I am working on. My concern is that using these functions requires Read and Write RegistryPermissions: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.visualbasic.interaction.getsetting(v=vs.110).aspx However, I did not find any definite answer if regular users have this permission e.g. in the scope of setting they create through my Add-In. Please confirm if users will need admin rights to use these functions in my Add-In.

Regular i.e Standard user should not need admin right to use these functions.

It seems current user section of registry read/write access is required, which can be done by non-admin user.
