What about document security? Who else can view documents other than the current user?

All API requests to view/edit documents in Zoho Office editors are carried over secure HTTPS connection. We can assure you that your data is safe as long as it is in viewed/edited in Zoho Writer, Sheet or Show. You can also refer to Zoho's Security and Privacy Policy for further clarifications, if any. 

Please note that Zoho or any other users will not be able to view/edit your content; the user who is accessing the unique session URL provided from our end will only be able to view/edit the content. Also, we provide a separate document URL for each API request making the transaction completely secure. 

Google or other search engines cannot crawl your content as the Office API are session-based APIs. The only state we maintain is the current session of the document in which the file is viewed or edited in our Office editors (Writer, Sheet, Show). Once the browser session is closed, the content is removed from Zoho Servers.
