You choose what's included.
Nothing leaves your company without your OK. You decide which systems and which years go into a deal, and you can leave anything out. Finding out what your records could be worth never requires a file, a login or a sample, and your records never leave your hands until you sign.
Personal details come out first.
Buyers in these deals want records of how work gets done, not who your customers are. They ask for customer names, emails, phone numbers and other personal details to be taken out before anything is used. The exact process depends on the buyer and is defined in the agreement you approve, so make sure it's spelled out there in plain words.
Check your client contracts.
This is the one that stops the most deals. Some client contracts say the records belong to the client, or limit how you can use or share them. Read yours before you sign anything. If you're not sure what a clause means, talk to your lawyer. Briggs Analytics is not a law firm, and this page isn't legal advice.
What to ask for in writing.
Which systems and years are in scope, how personal details are handled and who checks it, who can see the records and for how long, whether copies are kept or deleted, and what the buyer may and may not do with them. How Briggs Analytics handles your details covers our side.

Questions owners ask about safety.
Does Briggs Analytics need my records to give me an estimate?
No. You don't send any files to find out. The estimate runs on five answers about your company.
Who decides what goes into a deal?
You do. You choose which systems and which years are included, and nothing is shared without your OK. If a buyer asks for something you're not comfortable with, you can say no.
What happens to my customers' names and personal details?
Buyers in these deals ask for names, emails, phone numbers and other personal details to be taken out before the records are used. The exact process depends on the buyer and is defined in the agreement you approve, so ask for it in writing.
Can my client contracts stop this?
Sometimes. Some client contracts say the records belong to the client, or limit how you can use or share them. Read yours before you sign anything, and if you're not sure, talk to your lawyer.
Is this legal advice?
No. Briggs Analytics is not a law firm. We'll tell you what we see in the market, and your lawyer should read any agreement before you sign it.
