The protections
- Controlled access. Data moves only under the agreement's terms, to named parties.
- Encrypted transfer and storage. Technical safeguards for data in motion and at rest.
- Contractual obligations. How the buyer must handle, secure and eventually delete the data.
- Audit rights. The ability to verify compliance.
Why it is contractual, not just technical
Technical measures protect data in transit; the agreement protects it afterward. Both are standard in reported AI data deals (Reuters).
Who is responsible
SourceX operates the transaction pipeline and structures the security terms; the company approves them before any transfer.
What this means for partners
Security is a standard part of every transaction, not an extra. Introduce a qualifying company — typically 50+ full-time employees at peak — and if a deal closes and SourceX collects its fee, you earn 25% of that fee, up to $100,000 per company.

Common questions
What security measures protect data in licensing deals?
Data licensing transactions include controlled access, encrypted transfer and storage, and specific contractual handling obligations. These measures ensure data protection both during transfer and while at rest or in use by the buyer.
Is data security covered by technical measures alone?
No, data security relies on both technical measures and contractual obligations. Technical safeguards like encryption protect data in transit and at rest, while the agreement outlines how the buyer must handle, secure, and eventually delete the data afterward.
Who is responsible for data security in a SourceX transaction?
SourceX operates the transaction pipeline and structures the security terms for licensing deals. The company approves these terms before any data transfer occurs, ensuring robust security is in place.
How can partners earn rewards by referring companies for licensing?
Partners can earn 25% of SourceX's collected fee, up to $100,000 per company, for introducing qualifying companies. To qualify, a company must typically have 50+ full-time employees at peak, and the reward is paid after a deal closes and SourceX collects its fee.
