Question
Can I restrict which AI companies get my data?
By SourceX Editorial · Updated
Short answer
Yes. You approve each buyer and can exclude competitors or specific companies. Licenses can also limit sublicensing so data does not pass to others.
Part of: How licensing works
Explanation#
SourceX shares data only with buyers the business approves.
Field-of-use terms can further limit what the data is used for.
Rights and privacy#
- Confirm customer, vendor and employee agreements allow the use
- Remove or de-identify personal details before anything leaves the company
- Approve the final dataset and permitted uses in writing
How licensing works#
A business describes its data, buyer demand is assessed, scope and permitted use are proposed, the data is prepared and de-identified, an agreement is signed, and the approved dataset is delivered. See data licensing for detail.
