Account Structure
The base of all things GetHomeSafe. All users are a part of a team, and each team has assigned team leaders. These team leaders are responsible for responding to the alerts set off by the members of there teams.
All users belong to an organisation, which is divided into teams. Organisation admins manage the day-to-day.
An account can contain multiple organisations. Account administrators manage settings that apply across all organisations.
An optional monitoring layer assigned to an organisation. Call centre users receive alerts just like team leaders. Organisations can use an internal call centre or a trusted monitoring provider.
