 ### Middleware
 
-By default two new route middleware are available in your Nuxt app: `hanko-logged-in` and `hanko-logged-out`.
+By default three new route middlewares are available in your Nuxt app: `hanko-logged-in`, `hanko-logged-out` and `hanko-allow-all`.
 
 - `hanko-logged-in` will prevent access to a page unless you are logged in. (It will redirect you to `redirects.login` instead, and then redirect back to this page once you login. You can disable this behaviour by setting `redirects.followRedirect` to `false`.)
 - `hanko-logged-out` will prevent access to a page unless you are logged out. (It will redirect you to `redirects.success` when you log in, and otherwise to `redirects.home`.)
+- `hanko-allow-all` will allow all users access to page, even if the `globalMiddleware` option is set to `true`. (If the `globalMiddleware` option is not set to `true`, this middleware has no effect.)
 
 You can also create your own middleware for full control.
 
+### Global Middleware
+
+If the `globalMiddleware` configuration is set to `true`, the middleware is automatically applied to all of your pages.
+You can still override this behavior on each page, by applying the `hanko-logged-out` or the `hanko-allow-all` middleware.
+
+**Note**: The `globalMiddleware` option will not apply any authentication checks to your API-paths.
+
 ### Auto-imports
 
 `useHanko` is exposed in the Vue part of your app to allow you direct access to the Hanko API. You can access the current user and much more. **Note**: It will return `null` on the server.
 
+The `hankoLoggedIn` and `hankoLoggedOut` middleware are exposed to enable you to extend their functionality, such as creating a custom global middleware.
+
 ### Server utilities
 
 By default you can access a verified JWT context on `event.context.hanko`. (It will be undefined if the user is not logged in.) If you want to handle this yourself you can set `augmentContext: false`.
