Yes. In order to get into a session you need an access code that can only be provided by the host. The host has full visibility on who is in the meeting and can lock the meeting to prevent more guests from joining, and can selectively disconnect existing guests. Guests only see what you show them and cannot access any files or information on your computer without your knowledge. GatherPlace servers run the latest Unix technology and is hosted in secure, guarded facilities with backup power. GatherPlace is also part of the Hacker-Safe program that ensures your safety.

Yes. You can host sessions from as many computers as you want with your Account as long as you use one computer at a time.

An Individual Account is for one person, to host one meeting at a time using a single login Account from any PC or Mac. You can also run reports on meetings that have been hosted. Shared Accounts allow you to create an unlimited number of login Accounts for others within the same company. This gives each user their own login credentials so they can host their own meetings but only one person can host a meeting concurrently. However you are still limited to hosting a single meeting at a time between all sub-accounts unless you get multiple "Rooms" under your Shared Account and share those respectively with your colleagues. The shared account also allows the Master Account to run reports on all the users which allows the Master Account to view the history and details of all the meetings.

If you and your colleagues need to host one meeting at a time, the Shared Account is the way to go. If you need to conduct more than one meeting at a time, you have two options: 1) purchase more than one Individual Account if each person wishes to manage his/her own account; or 2) purchase a Shared Account with as many meeting "Rooms" as you need if you wish to manage all of your meetings under one Master Account.
