# Permissions

### Overview

Access to a Site is granted by specific permission tiers. For information on access levels for repositories in Git-Based Source Control, see [this section](/docs/git-based-source-control/administration/teams/permissions-by-account-type.md).

The permission levels for Sites are summarized in the following table:
