What is Privacy by Principle?
Privacy by Principle is the foundational commitment to building software that functions effectively without the need to harvest, track, or store personal data. It is a shift away from the "data-first" industry norm, prioritizing intentional data avoidance and strict isolation of customer environments. By making privacy an architectural requirement rather than an optional setting, we ensure that discretion and trust are baked into every line of code.
Benefits of Privacy by Principle
Adopting a principle-led approach to privacy simplifies your compliance burden by removing the risks associated with storing sensitive personal identifiable information. This model fosters deeper trust with your buyers, as they can engage with your sales process knowing their identity and data are shielded by design. Ultimately, it allows your team to focus on closing deals with the confidence that their workspace is isolated, secure, and built to honor the professional boundaries of every stakeholder.
-
Identity-First Authentication: We never store your passwords. By leveraging Google and Microsoft OAuth, your credentials remain with the identity providers you already trust, ensuring seamless and secure access.
-
Isolated Tenant Architecture: Your data lives in a silo, not a pool. We utilize strict tenant isolation on Google Cloud Platform, ensuring that your information is never replicated, leaked, or shared across other environments.
-
Zero-Harvesting Philosophy: We believe you shouldn't have to trade privacy for productivity. FlowGuide is engineered to deliver value through anonymized outputs, intentionally avoiding the collection of personally identifiable information (PII).
-
Total Data Sovereignty: You remain the sole owner of your information. With our permanent deletion protocols, when you choose to remove data, it is wiped instantly and irretrievably from our systems.
From Our Founder
FlowGuide operates on a strict privacy first philosophy. After over 20 years in sales, I've learned that great selling never requires invading privacy. The platform does not require personally identifiable information, anonymizes outputs, and isolates customer data by tenant with no cross environment replication.
User authentication is handled exclusively through Google and Microsoft, ensuring credentials remain within trusted identity providers. Built on Google Cloud security standards, FlowGuide minimizes data collection, maximizes customer control, and guarantees permanent deletion when content is removed.

Security & Privacy at FlowGuide
Built on Trust. Designed for Privacy. Engineered for Security.
FlowGuide is built on a simple belief. Great sales software does not need to collect personal data, invade privacy, or harvest customer information to deliver value. Sellers already know who they work with. Buyers deserve respect. We design our platform to honor both.
We do not require personally identifiable information to use FlowGuide. Outputs are anonymized, customer data is isolated by tenant, and nothing is replicated across environments. Authentication is handled exclusively through Google and Microsoft, meaning your credentials stay with trusted identity providers and never live inside FlowGuide.
We run on Google Cloud Platform and follow enterprise grade security protocols to protect customer content. Customers control what they share, what they store, and what they delete. When something is removed, it is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
We intentionally avoid unnecessary data collection. Just a fast, focused, and secure platform built to help sellers close deals while preserving privacy, discretion, and trust.
Privacy is not a feature at FlowGuide. It is a principle.
