FAQ and security
Plain answers before you start.
What happens to your originals, who sees what and what you sign off on. Plus the essentials about the estimate.
Get my estimateThe estimate
- What sets my range?
- Your starting range comes from team size, and years in business fine tune it. Industry never affects the figure.
- Is the range an offer?
- No. What you see is an indicative estimate from your answers. Actual value depends on buyer interest and a review of your records.
Regulated businesses and opt outs
- Our business is a law, accounting or healthcare practice. Is this open to us?
- Your counsel helps set the scope with you, and client or patient data is excluded. Whether licensing is legal or right for your practice is not something we advise on.
- How can I stop calls or texts?
- Reply STOP to any text, or use the Do not sell or share page linked at the foot of every page.
Security and handling
- Will our original files leave our systems?
- No. Your original files stay put. License Your Data prepares a separate de-identified copy, and that copy is the only thing licensed.
- Will anyone ask us for passwords?
- No. Passwords and logins are never requested or shared, at any point.
- Can we see what goes out before it is sent?
- Yes. You approve a sample of the de-identified copy before anything is sent. Nothing moves if the sample is wrong.
- How are names and identifiers handled?
- Placeholders replace them. The thread can still show a customer requesting a revised quote without revealing who they were.
- Can we exclude things?
- Yes. Any system, folder, client or matter can be excluded, for any reason.
- Do you sign an NDA?
- Yes. An NDA is in place before any detail about your records is discussed.
- How much does it cost us?
- Nothing. You pay nothing at any stage.
Before you start
- Who is this meant for?
- The usual fit is 20 or more full-time staff and at least 3 years in business, with records in tools such as Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, a CRM or an ERP. Smaller teams with a long history may also qualify.
- How long does the estimate take?
- Roughly a minute. Just four questions, with your range updating as you go.
- Who calls me after I submit?
- A specialist from License Your Data, our licensing partner, usually within minutes, to set up a 15-minute call.
- Does an estimate request give anyone access to our systems?
- No. The form collects only the answers and contact details you type in. Nothing in your systems is accessed.
- Can more than one person join the call?
- Yes. Many owners bring a partner, operations lead or adviser, especially when scope is discussed.
