Every page lists the records that usually count in that line of work, the worry owners mention first and the things you can hold back.

Open pageWhat holds true everywhere
- Under NDA. Every discussion begins under an NDA.
- Originals stay where they are. License Your Data prepares a de-identified copy instead.
- Placeholders. Before anything leaves, names and identifiers are swapped out.
- Exclusions you choose. You can leave out any system, folder, client or matter.
- A sample first. It needs your approval before any release.
Not seeing your sector?
In the form you can also choose freight and 3PL, distribution, manufacturing, insurance, finance, law, professional services or Other. All of them hold years of email, files and tool history.
Policyholder data and customer account data stay out for insurers and financial firms. If you run a law firm, scope is settled with you and your counsel, and client data is kept out. Legal advice is not something we offer.
What every sector page answers
- Which records count. The routine threads and files that reveal how work happens in that field.
- The first worry. What owners in that sector ask about first, and how it gets handled.
- What you can hold back. Beyond the universal rules, the particular things you may keep out.
Does sector change the number?
Two answers drive your range: team size and years in business. Sector is question three in the form. It gives License Your Data context before the call and never changes the estimate.
What makes records useful is the same in any sector: a team in the same tools for several years, leaving a written trail of real work.
Read the closest sector page, then pick your team size below to begin. Because the specialist who calls already has your answers, the 15-minute call stays on your tools and what to exclude.
