How you are paid

The data program you are introduced to signs the license and pays you, after you sign and deliver the data. Cognor says sellers pay it no fees. No payment deadline is published.

You sign the buyer's license and the buyer pays you in agreed milestones. A success fee is due after closing, with the rate agreed case by case. There is no upfront fee.

Seller fees

Official FAQ and website terms say companies pay Cognor no fees.

No upfront fee; success fee due after closing, but rate only agreed later.

Payment timing

Payment after signed agreement and delivered data; no fixed number of days stated.

Buyer payment milestones set by agreement; 50/50 example is illustrative, not a fixed term.

Advertised compensation (not an offer)

Claims $100K–$2M past placements; self-reported, not independently verified deals or guaranteed rates

Site example $152,700 and buyer offer examples are explicitly illustrative, not actual deals

Exclusivity

License: Usually exclusive

License: Negotiated per deal

Permitted AI use

Anonymized buyer access disclosed, but sublicense and specific training permissions are not standardized.

Seller approves permitted use; illustrated resale ban is not an operative contract.

Privacy

Encrypted transfer, Cognor-side masking, customer/staff identifiers removed, seller approves transfer.

Partner removes identifiers and seller approves handling; site acknowledges residual reidentification risk.

Retention and deletion

No public raw archive deletion/retention schedule after Cognor receives and processes files.

Seller approves each transaction; no concrete data retention/deletion after delivery.
