Security

Your data, kept apart and kept safe

Each company on Dowel runs in its own workspace with its own database. This is how we protect it, and what stays in your control.

A workspace of your own

Your own database and your own application, never shared with another company. Dedicated servers are available.

Encrypted in transit and at rest

TLS on every connection, with certificates we issue and renew, and encrypted storage underneath.

Backed up every day

Daily backups and a restore point before every release, kept away from the server they protect.

Roles and approvals

Viewers, members, managers and admins, with approvals wherever money moves.

Strong sign-in

Passwords hashed with Argon2, sessions that expire, and single sign-on and two-step verification for teams that need them.

A record of everything

Every movement of stock and money is kept, with who made it and when.

AI inside the same walls

The assistant works with the permissions of the person asking. Your data is never used to train models.

Hosted in the United States

On Google Cloud. Dedicated plans can choose their region.

Your data is yours

Export everything at any time. If you leave, you get a full export and we delete your workspace.

How we work

Careful by habit

Security is mostly routine done every time. These are ours.

Every change is tested before it ships

Automated tests run on every change, and database changes are rehearsed on a copy before they touch yours.

Few hands, strong keys

Access to production is limited to the people who run it, with keys, never shared passwords.

Nothing extra is collected

No advertising or tracking scripts on this site or in the app. The only cookie keeps you signed in.
