Step by step
Three steps, and you decide at every one
Everything begins with a brief estimate. Next is a 15-minute call, then a de-identified copy you sign off on, then a license run by License Your Data.
Get my estimateBefore step one: the estimate
The estimate asks how many people work at your company, how long you have been in business and what kind of business it is. The range updates with each answer. Headcount sets the starting band, time in business adjusts it, and your industry has no effect on it.
Send your details and a License Your Data specialist, our licensing partner, calls within minutes to arrange a 15-minute call at a convenient time. Your range is an indicative estimate based on your answers, and it is not an offer or guarantee.
The three steps
- 01
Start with a 15-minute call
You walk a specialist through your tools, the age of your records and what you know should be left out.
- 02
A de-identified copy
License Your Data builds a copy in which names and identifiers become placeholders. Nothing is sent until you approve a sample.
- 03
Licensing to buyers
The approved copy is licensed to buyers through License Your Data. Your originals never leave your systems.
Step one in detail: the call
The call is deliberately quick. The aim is to learn if your records are a match, not to make a sale. Expect questions like these:
- Which systems does your staff rely on each day?
- About how far back do those systems go?
- Should any clients, matters or folders be left out right away?
- Who else in the business needs a say?
It all begins under an NDA. If it is not a fit, you hear that plainly on the call.
Step two in detail: the copy
Your originals stay where they are. License Your Data uses a copy of just the systems you approve, and passwords are never requested or shared. In the copy, names of people, clients and companies become placeholders, as do other identifiers like addresses and account numbers.
A sample of the finished copy comes to you before anything leaves. Whatever is not right is either fixed or dropped. You are free to exclude any system, folder, client or matter.
A closer look at the license
After your approval, buyers license the de-identified copy via License Your Data. Each license applies to the agreed copy and the agreed uses only. Your staff carry on in their own systems just as they did, at no cost to you.
What is shared and what is not
Shared only after your approval
- A de-identified copy of the systems and date ranges you agree to
- The pattern of work itself: requests, steps, choices, handoffs and follow ups
- Names and identifiers swapped for placeholders
What never goes out
- Your original files and systems
- Any passwords, keys or logins
- Client, patient or taxpayer data from regulated businesses
- Bank account and payment card details
- Any excluded system, folder, client or matter
It starts with three questions.
