Data protection notice

Rates you edit, allowances you set and project details you add remain in the estimate draft stored in your browser. We do not aggregate, benchmark, publish, sell or use that information to train any model.

It depends on the format, and the difference matters for the confidentiality terms most tender documents are issued under.

CSV, Excel and Word. The file is read in your browser and is never transmitted as a file to us or to anyone else; it is discarded from memory when the tab closes.

PDF and photographs. Page images taken from the document are sent to Anthropic, which operates the model that reads them. We do not store them: they pass through and only the structured result comes back. Anthropic’s commercial terms prohibit training on them, and they are deleted after a short abuse-monitoring period.

Whichever way a bill is read, every line’s description and unit is then sent through our estimating service to Anthropic to be classified and matched against rates, under the same terms. Neither the file nor the lines are stored by us.

If a document may not lawfully leave your organisation, do not upload it. There is no fully on-device mode: a bill is not priced without its lines leaving the estimator’s computer.

Saved estimates are written to the local storage of the browser you created them in, not to an InfraBid database. They are not synchronised across devices. Another person using that browser profile may be able to see them, so use a private work device for confidential tenders.

The model reads documents and chooses which library item a bill line corresponds to. It is never shown rates and never produces a price. The deterministic engine in the app takes the chosen item and does the arithmetic, so the same bill against the same library always produces the same total.

Your work is not used to train any model, is not pooled with other customers’ work, and is not fed back into the rate library.

The library is built from published Irish schedules of rates (TII, NTA and SEO schedules) and is delivered from our database to your browser. It is not built from another user’s tender documents, draft estimates or edited rates, and your work is never added to it.

Every estimate can be exported to CSV with its full breakdown. A saved draft can be removed from the Estimates workspace. Clearing InfraBid’s site data in the browser removes all remaining trial drafts on that device; because they are local, we cannot recover them afterwards.

If you believe data has been exposed or handled incorrectly, tell us at info@infrabid.ie and we will investigate. Where a personal data breach is likely to result in a risk to individuals, we will notify the Irish Data Protection Commission within 72 hours of becoming aware of it, and affected users without undue delay.
