Your approval comes before anything moves
Not one record is shared before the scope has your approval. Before you approve, all that happens is an estimate, then a phone call and a talk. You are free to walk away at any stage until you sign, and the estimate itself carries no obligation.
Regulated firms' client and patient data
At law, accounting and healthcare organizations, many records are owned by clients and patients, not the firm. For them, the firm and its lawyers decide the scope, and client and patient records are left out. We cannot tell you if your firm is legally able to license.
Your files, your passwords, your sample
Your original files never leave your systems. No passwords or logins are ever asked for or shared. License Your Data prepares a separate copy, with names and identifiers replaced by placeholders, and you approve a sample of it before anything goes out. The whole process runs under NDA and is free for you.
What you own stays with you
Your records and systems stay yours. The license reaches the agreed scope and no further. The conversation about terms happens with License Your Data, our licensing partner, and you see the scope before you sign anything.
Choose to stop at any point before you sign, and no record has gone out and no money is due.
What is sensitive stays out or gets de-identified
Before any sharing, sensitive data can be removed or de-identified. For example, whole groups like personnel files or payroll can come out, and what is left can have identifying details stripped.
- Drop a whole system, a single folder, one team or certain dates
- Have names and contact details de-identified in any record left in scope
- Tell us what else is out of bounds as the scope is set
Questions worth asking on the call
Come with a list of questions you care about. Useful things to ask while the scope is set include:
- Exactly which systems and date ranges are in the proposed scope
- How records left in scope get de-identified
- What the license permits and what it rules out
- Who inside your company has to approve before anything goes out
The details you give us
The details you enter on the estimate form are handled as described in our Privacy Policy. You can opt out of sharing at any time on the Do not sell my data page.
Start with the number, decide the rest later.
Your estimate costs nothing and does not bind you to anything. The scope is set later, and only once you approve it.
How many employees does your company have?
