About KeepCount
Why KeepCount exists
KeepCount is from the founder of Ghayur Accounts and Tax Services (GATS), an Ontario accounting firm since 2001. KeepCount Inc. runs it.
A note from the founder
At my accounting firm, our clients include licensed child care operators. I see their books, not their binders, and that is where the cost of licensing paperwork shows: hours that should go to the program and the children.
Accounting solved this long ago: record each transaction once, when it happens, and the statements assemble themselves. KeepCount does the same for licensing records.
It does not decide compliance; the Ministry does. Its job is to have each record ready before the program advisor asks.

Where KeepCount is, and where your records are
KeepCount Inc.
Suite 200, 51 Village Centre Place, Mississauga, Ontario L4Z 1V9.
Records in Canada
The database, sign-in and file storage run on Supabase in its Canada (Central) region. A few services outside Canada handle limited information so that email and alerts can be sent, cards charged and the website delivered.
Children’s names encrypted
On top of the database provider’s encryption, children’s names, emergency contacts, the names of allergens and medications, and incident narratives, among others, are encrypted inside the database with a key the application holds.
When support can look
KeepCount support can open your account only through a support session that your own activity log records, for eight hours at a time, with a second sign-in step.
