Your approval comes before anything moves
Records stay put until you have signed off on the scope. Up to then you get a range, one call and a conversation, nothing more. 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
Accounting firms, law firms and healthcare organizations hold records that belong to their clients and patients. Here the firm and its own lawyers agree the scope together, and data about clients and patients is kept out. We do not give advice on whether licensing is legal for your firm.
What you own stays with you
You keep your systems and every record in them. Anything outside the agreed scope sits outside the license. The conversation about terms happens with License Your Data, our licensing partner, and you see the scope before you sign anything.
Walk away at any stage ahead of signing and you will have shared nothing and owe nothing.
Sensitive records are removed or de-identified
Sensitive data can be excluded or de-identified before anything is shared. In practice that means you can remove whole categories, such as HR files or payroll, and have identifying details stripped from what remains.
- Leave out a team, a folder, a system or a span of dates
- Have names and contact details de-identified in any record left in scope
- Flag anything else as off limits during scoping
Originals, logins and the sample
Your original files never leave your systems. You will never be asked to hand over a password or a login. 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. Everything starts under NDA, and there is no cost to you.
Good things to ask on the call
Feel free to bring a checklist of your own. Good questions to raise during scoping include:
- The exact systems and date ranges in the proposed scope
- How records left in scope get de-identified
- What the license allows and what it does not
- Which people at your company must sign off before sharing
Your contact details
Details you submit through the form are handled under our Privacy Policy. You can opt out of sharing at any time on the Do not share my details page.
See your range now and settle the rest later.
Your estimate costs nothing and does not bind you to anything. Scope comes later, and only with your approval.
