1. Introduction
ESX-Ray ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information and estimate data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our forensic Xactimate PDF auditing service ("Service").

3. Data Processing and Analysis
3.1 PDF Data Ingestion: When you upload a Xactimate PDF, our Service extracts line item data, metadata, and scope parameters to perform forensic analysis. This extraction is necessary to identify potential IICRC S500 non-compliance and missing line items.
3.2 Automated Analysis: Uploaded estimate data is processed through our proprietary algorithms to compare submitted scopes against IICRC S500 standards and industry best practices.
3.3 Report Generation: Analysis results are compiled into Revenue Validation Reports containing identified omissions, compliance gaps, and estimated missed revenue calculations.
3.4 No Manual Review: Estimate data is processed exclusively through automated systems. ESX-Ray staff do not manually review or access individual project details except when required for technical troubleshooting or support requests initiated by you.
4. Data Storage and Security
4.1 Encrypted Storage: All uploaded PDFs and extracted estimate data are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and stored in secure, access-controlled databases.
4.2 Secure Transmission: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3 (Transport Layer Security) protocols.
4.3 Access Controls: Database access is restricted to authorized personnel only and protected by multi-factor authentication, IP whitelisting, and role-based access controls.
4.4 Infrastructure Security: Our Service is hosted on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with 24/7 monitoring, automated threat detection, and regular security audits.
4.5 Data Isolation: Each customer's estimate data is logically isolated and accessible only to the associated account owner.
