- Notes
- Scale states its partnerships are designed with an opportunity for recurring revenue and can begin with a limited scope. Scale states it anonymizes data inside the company's environment before extraction, that raw systems, credentials and source access never leave, and that each data package needs the company's sign-off. On-prem and VPC options are listed. How data is transferred out (export or connector) is not published.
