Token-Based Secure Form Distribution

No shared links. No public URLs. Every form recipient gets a unique, revocable token with full audit trail.

How Token-Based Distribution Works

Traditional form builders generate a single public URL that anyone can access. PersoForms takes a different approach: each form distribution generates unique tokens for specific recipients.

• Unique tokens: Each recipient gets their own token — no shared access
• Revocable: Revoke any token at any time to immediately cut off access
• Time-limited: Set expiration dates so tokens auto-expire
• Trackable: See exactly who received, opened, and completed each form
• Single-use option: Tokens can be configured for one-time use

Why This Matters

Controlled Access

With a public link, you have no control over who accesses your form once the link is shared. With tokens, only intended recipients can access the form. If a token is shared, you can revoke it without affecting other recipients.

Compliance

Token-based distribution creates an auditable record of who was invited, when they accessed the form, and when they submitted. This is essential for compliance-sensitive use cases like healthcare intake, HR surveys, and financial forms.

Fraud Prevention

Unique tokens prevent duplicate submissions, ballot stuffing, and unauthorized access. Each response is tied to a specific token, making it easy to verify authenticity.

Additional Security Features

• JWT tokens: Secure API access with short-lived tokens and refresh token rotation
• Rate limiting: API rate limiting to prevent abuse
• WCAG 2.1 AA: Accessibility compliance built into form rendering
• Self-hosting: Run PersoForms on your own infrastructure for full data control
• No third-party data sharing: Form data stays in your account, never shared or sold

Use Cases

• Healthcare: Patient intake forms with HIPAA-friendly token distribution
• HR: Employee surveys where anonymity and access control matter
• Finance: Compliance forms requiring audit trails
• Education: Assessment forms distributed to specific students
• Internal: Team feedback forms restricted to organization members
