No difference. The ecclesiastical princes and rulers acted just like the secular ones - like being a liege lord to lesser secular nobles and ecclesiastical rulers.
The Archbishop of Cologne, Engelbert I. (1185 - 1225) greatly expanded the territory of the Archdiocese of Cologne by concentrating several rhenish and westfalian bailiwicks under him, which led eventually to the murder of him by other princes. Of note is that Engelbert I. was also a great friend of Emperor Friedrich II. and he probably influenced him to issue the "Confoederatio cum principibus ecclesiasticis", a bull which greatly strenghtend the cclesiastical princes by granting them royal rights (like minting coin and building castles to their liking).
