A record of every change

A counter keeps a record of everything that happened to it. That's what makes its answers checkable, and its history trustworthy.

#The rules

• Nothing is overwritten. A correction is a new row that points at the row it corrects.
• Nothing is erased. A delete is a void: the row is marked, kept, and left out of answers.
• Every row says where it came from - a tap, a sentence, the Add form, an import, a job or a button.

#What it looks like

#A preview before anything is saved

The other half of the promise: changes are shown before they happen. Imports, jobs, alerts, buttons and field changes all show their result first, and nothing is saved until you say yes.

#Is anything ever deleted?

No. A correction is a new row pointing at the old one; a delete is marked, not erased. If you have a question about removing data for legal or privacy reasons, write to support@countdat.com.
