ActualCost — Know your real price

Security

Your company’s workspace is separated from every other company.

ActualCost uses authenticated accounts, organisation-based access and role controls so users reach the workspace they belong to.

How access works

Authenticated users

Workspace access requires an invited or approved user account. Passwords and authenticated sessions are handled through established account-security services.

Company separation

Operational records are associated with a company workspace. Database access rules check that the signed-in user belongs to that workspace.

Role-based control

Workspace owners and administrators can manage members. Editor and viewer roles restrict what invited colleagues can change.

Historical cost records

Labour entries preserve the rate and calculated cost recorded for that entry so later rate changes do not silently rewrite history.

Security foundations

ActualCost uses established service providers for account authentication, data storage, website delivery and transactional email. Encrypted connections, workspace access controls and role permissions help protect company information while keeping each organisation's records separate.

Your responsibilities

Customers should invite only authorised colleagues, assign the minimum access each person needs, use unique passwords and remove access when a colleague no longer requires it. Do not share sign-in credentials between people.

Private-pilot status

ActualCost is under active development. It has not been represented as independently security-certified, penetration-tested or suitable as the only archive for legally required accounting records. Security information on this page will be updated as the service and its controls develop.
