Data handling, conflicts and terms.

Data handling

What happens to your files.

• Files are shared by a method agreed with you, or, where agreed, I work on them in your own environment.
• I use them only for your analysis.
• You keep the master copy. I delete my working copy, including files sent for a Baseline Red-Flag Scan, within a period agreed at booking, or after any included re-run, except the Seal 00 files if a Record follows, or where a legal hold or dispute requires keeping them.
• For a Sealed Schedule Record, files and seals are kept for a period we agree in writing, and you hold the master copy of every file and every seal.
• Packs are shared with third parties only with your written consent.
• I work under a confidentiality agreement agreed with you.

Confidentiality

A mutual NDA comes first.

Where agreed, a mutual NDA is signed before any file is shared.

No file is uploaded through this site.

Before you send a file

What to send for a Baseline Review or Scan.

Where agreed at scoping, send:

• The baseline as a P6 .xer export, one project per file, exactly as submitted or received
• Its data date, and the date by which it must be submitted or accepted
• The facilities or key milestones whose finish you want traced
• Any calendar or working-week rules that are not in the file

Conflicts

When I decline work.

I take on no work that conflicts with my professional obligations, and I decline any engagement where I have a conflict of interest, including acting for both sides of the same contract without both parties’ written agreement, and including any conflict with my employment or with any party to the project.

Terms

What the work is, and is not.

• AllSignal is a trading name of Ben Daniels. Work is provided under written terms agreed before it starts, including a limit of liability.
• Findings are for the client’s own use; third parties may rely on them only by written agreement.
• Sealing on receipt is not acceptance. A seal shows what was received and when, not that the other party agreed it. What a seal proves, and what it does not
• The work is factual and is not an expert-witness opinion unless separately agreed.
