Role management
Your staff is whom you trust after your customers. Still it is wise to restrict access.Admin > Users Section > Role management > Create role > give a name of your choice and save.

Just to make user see details, choose edit to be 'None'.
To restrict user to Export or Import, choose 'None'.
To allow user to only see/delete records created/owned by himself choose List/Delete 'Owner'.
If you select View 'Owner', and keep List 'Not set', user will be able to see all records in list view, but detail view will be accessible for records owned by him.
