Security and privacy

We read a business’s most sensitive records. We act like it.

Here is exactly what we commit to, in plain language.

Read-only by design
Connections request read-only access. Inherit never sends email, edits the books, changes jobs or moves money.
Consent from both sides
Buyer and seller each sign a capture consent naming every source, and nothing outside it is read. The seller can see exactly what was read, and remove anything personal.
Exclusions you control
Leave out any email label, contact or person, such as an employee. Either side can add to the list. Matching records are never read, or deleted if they already were.
Never used to train AI
The business’s data is not used to train Inherit’s or any provider’s AI models.
Encrypted everywhere
TLS in transit. The business’s records, and the logins used to read them, are encrypted at rest with AES-256 and scoped to a single workspace.
Delete anytime
Disconnect a source and its records are deleted, along with anything drafted only from them. Close a workspace and everything is removed within 30 days, or delete it at once.
Least-privilege sharing
Lenders and brokers see readiness metrics only, never source documents, and only with the buyer’s consent.
Audit trail
Every connection, sync, answer, question, export and deletion is logged with who did it and when. The buyer can download it at any time.

Compliance status

SOC 2 Type I audit in preparation. Recording laws differ by state, so call transcripts are only read where every party consented to recording, and our consent templates cover two-party-consent states.
