Do sharepoint workflows run under different permissions?

If I fire a sharepoint workflow manually, and it then runs automatically when a document is updated, will these run under the same permissions?

If its a declarative workflow then it will fire under the same permissions that the user has. For instance, let us assume you checked an item into a sharepoint list. A workflow might exist to send an email to the quality team that a new document was uploaded into the list. This workflow effectively uses the same permissions as the person who just kicked off that workflow.
