The access permission for each document stored in the machine can be specified by the user who stores the document.
Such a user is called file creator (owner).
The owner can specify who is allowed to access his/her stored documents.
For other users, only the documents they are allowed to access are displayed. The access permission can be changed by the owner and administrator only.
