## Read and set aside

- [Enterprise Data Partnerships \| aitrainer.work Enterprise](https://aitrainer.work/enterprise/): a router that says it holds no data and buys none: 'we are not a data processor, broker or escrow'
- [Sell Your Data to AI Companies in 2026, The Complete Guide \| FileYield \| FileYield](https://fileyield.com/data-buyers): a secondary broker guide, admissible for discovery of buyer names only, never a named buyer's terms
- [Shutterstock Data Licensing](https://www.shutterstock.com/data-licensing): Shutterstock's page sells its own library to AI teams; it is not a door for a seller's data

## Methodology

Each buyer's own buyer and data-partnership pages were read through estate-fetch and stored whole (sha256 on every row). For every page, six questions were answered from its own words: data types it says it takes, minimum volume, format or how the data is handed over, exclusive or non-exclusive, personal data removed, how the seller is paid. Every stated answer carries the sentence it rests on, checked against the stored text; 'not stated' means the page read does not address the question. A buyer with several pages reads 'varies' where they disagree. 12 buyers, 13 pages.
