Service providers we use
The companies that help us run Broker & Agent, what each one does, what data it receives, and
We share data only with the service providers that help us run our websites and apps, and only for that purpose. We never sell your data. Your data is stored in

About a few of them#
- Payments. Card details go straight to Stripe, a PCI Level 1 certified provider, and never
touch our servers. - AI. OpenAI is the only AI provider in our products. We send requests with storage turned off, and OpenAI doesn’t train its models on API data. OpenAI may keep requests for up to 30 days to
watch for abuse. - Encryption at rest. The databases, files and caches are encrypted at rest by
Neon and Cloudflare.
On brokerandagent.com#
Our own website counts visits with Plausible Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics. Both are cookieless and don’t identify you. The background video on our home page streams from Pexels, so they see your IP address
What isn’t on the list#
There are no analytics or advertising trackers inside our apps, and no outside error-tracking service: errors stay in
