Only if you have a whitelist table restricting who can sign in, or assign Role functionality to a user. Assigning Row Owners to a table does not make a user private on its own. > [@Glide Privacy Flowchart](https://community.glideapps.com/t/glide-privacy-flowchart/60957): > > Configuring the Privacy Settings for your Glide App can sometimes be a little confusing, especially when it comes to understanding how each of the settings affect whether your Signed In Users are considered Public or Private. The below flow chart aims to demystify that somewhat. A couple of key points to understand and be aware of: If you choose Private Access, then all users will be Private. If you choose Public Access, then that doesn’t necessarily mean that all your Users will be Public. … You can either build everything into a single app and assign multiple row owners to each table (maybe using Roles for BO employees), or you can have separate FO and BO apps with different row ownership. Maybe no row ownership for BO employees, but use row ownership for FO users. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.glideapps.com/t/private-back-office-private-front-office/68351)._
