Data Security

How FormOS approaches submissions, connected storage, and access control.

Connected storage model

FormOS routes public file uploads to the form owner's connected Google Drive or Dropbox account. Public submitters cannot choose the destination.

Submissions and signatures

Submission answers, signatures, initials, office-use fields, and completed status are stored so the form owner can review and finalize each workflow.

Activity timeline

Important submission events are recorded for owners, including creation, uploads, signatures, office updates, PDF generation, and email delivery status.

Secure access

Dashboard, submission, integration, and admin pages are protected by authentication and ownership checks. Super Admin views do not expose uploaded file links by default.

File exposure

FormOS does not create public Dropbox share links and does not expose storage provider tokens. Google Drive and Dropbox access remains server-side.
