# How Thymer is organized

Thymer has four levels.

| Level | What it is | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Account | Your company or your own account, with its own URL | acme.thymer.com |
| Workspace | A set of people who share everything in it | Product team |
| Collection | Pages that share properties and views | Projects |
| Page | A document with text, tasks, images and links | Website launch |

## Workspaces decide who sees what

Everyone in a workspace can read and edit everything in it. Workspaces are the only access boundary in Thymer; collections and sub-pages organize the content within one. When two groups need different access, give them separate workspaces. An account can have as many as you like, and you can switch between them from the sidebar.

Each workspace is encrypted with its own key, which only its members hold. See [Encryption and recovery keys](../your-data/encryption-and-recovery-keys.md).

## Collections give pages structure

A Projects collection might have Status, Owner and Due date properties. Each project is still a full page: write the brief, add tasks, drop in files. The collection's views show the same pages as a table, a board grouped by status, or a calendar by due date. See [Setting up a collection](../collections/setting-up-a-collection.md).

## Pages

A page can be a quick note or a long document. A page consists of lines, and a line can contain all kinds of content types, like a heading, list item, quote, task or image. Any line can be linked to from elsewhere, and a page can have sub-pages. See [Pages](../writing/pages.md) and [Writing and formatting](../writing/writing-and-formatting.md).

## The Journal

Every member has a Journal: one page per day, for notes and for the tasks you plan to work on that day. It lives in the workspace, so your teammates can see it too. See [The Journal](../tasks-and-journal/the-journal.md).
