Clear boundaries for client information.

Broadcastwell’s work begins with measurement, which can involve submitting approved company facts and buyer questions to AI-search providers. This page explains the operating controls and the limits of the public commitment.

Scope

What we collect—and why

01

Business and contact information

Company name, public website, category, approved competitors, project contacts, billing records, and the information needed to scope and deliver the engagement.

02

Measurement inputs

Approved buyer questions, public company facts, observed AI answers, citations, timestamps, engine names, and repeat-run records used to create the baseline and subsequent reports.

03

Implementation material

Approved content drafts, source references, analytics exports, screenshots, and other materials a client chooses to provide for the agreed work.

04

What a standard audit does not need

Passwords, API keys, customer records, regulated health data, payment-card data, or other high-risk information. Do not send such data unless a separate written scope and control plan has been agreed.

AI provider use

What can be placed into prompts

For an approved audit, prompts may contain a company name, public positioning facts, category language, and buyer questions. Broadcastwell aims to use the minimum information needed to observe the answer. Confidential strategy, credentials, private customer information, and personal data should not be included unless the client expressly approves a separate use case.
Operating controls

How access and retention are handled

Access

  • Limited to personnel working on the relevant engagement.
  • Authenticated accounts and, where supported, multi-factor authentication.
  • Least-access approach for client workspaces and exports.
  • No request for shared personal passwords.

Retention and deletion

  • Information is retained while needed to deliver the work and maintain the agreed record.
  • Legal, tax, accounting, or contract obligations may require limited continued retention.
  • Clients may request return or deletion of eligible project information.
  • Deletion requests are confirmed after applicable obligations are checked.

Confidentiality

  • Client confidential information is used only for the agreed engagement.
  • Public case studies require explicit approval.
  • Credentials and sensitive third-party data are excluded from public materials.
  • Contract terms control if they differ from this public summary.

Incident reporting

  • Suspected exposure is escalated for assessment and containment.
  • Affected clients are notified as required by the governing contract and applicable law.
  • Evidence is preserved where appropriate for investigation.
  • Security questions and reports go to hello@broadcastwell.com.

Assurance

Claims we do not make

No certification claim

This page does not claim SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, or another certification that has not been independently verified.

No universal data promise

Specific security, retention, residency, and deletion requirements belong in the signed agreement for the engagement. A DPA, subprocessor schedule, security questionnaire, MSA, and statement of work can be reviewed when relevant.
