PRIVACY & SECURITY

Best Estimate uses a high privacy starting point in any decision and product that is made. No user- or usage data is stored without your consent. This page elaborates on both the privacy & security measures that are in place. Reach out in case you have questions or concerns.

Privacy

No cookies are used on our website, in our newsletter or when using the API. No personal information is gathered without your consent. We need your e-mail address to subscribe you to the newsletter and provide access to the API. Without your e-mail address it is not possible to properly serve the functionalities or reach out in case of malfunction. To assure that your personal data cannot be compromised by other parties both the username and password for the API are totally unrelated to your personal data. Unsubscribing from the newsletter and the API is easy via this form. After processing the unsubscription request your personal (e-mail address) will be deleted within six months.

Security

No permanent storage of any data occurs when using the API. As a consequence the data used in combination with the API remains your property and is not accessible for anyone else. This policy is used by standard. Exceptions on this can be made, but not only on request and with approval of both parties involved. The only data stored on our API how much login requests you perform. This is to detect misuse as well as safeguard the accessibility of the API. Check out this page for more information.

The current version of the API uses a valid SSL certificate. Additionally both the website, newsletter and API are setup according to highest security standards. Usernames and passwords are distributed for the API to keep the system inaccessible, except for you, the user. By taking these three measures we assure that even, for the short period that it is processed, your data is in safe hands. Please reach out if you require special measures for application in your organisation or have detailed questions on security.
