Hive stores inspection reports, photos, client details, scheduling records, and business workflow data for working home inspectors. This page explains the security principles behind that platform.
Hive is built for inspectors who handle sensitive property, client, photo, scheduling, and payment workflow data. Our product decisions start from a simple rule: inspection data should support the inspector and client, not become an advertising or data-brokerage product.
Inspectors control who receives reports and which team members can access business records. Client and realtor delivery is handled through purpose-built report access instead of loose forwarding chains whenever possible.
Hive focuses on practical safeguards for the inspection workflow:
Account-based access for inspectors, teams, clients, and realtor workflows.
Payment card handling through payment processors rather than storing raw card details in Hive.
Separation between inspection reports, business records, support access, and public marketing pages.
A privacy position against third-party ads and data brokerage in client-facing reports.
For formal policy language, review the Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, Subscription Agreement, and Data Privacy Pledge linked from this site.
Hive uses AI to help with writing, phrasing, consistency, and report workflow. The inspector remains responsible for observations, condition, severity, safety language, recommendations, compliance with standards of practice, and final delivery.
Hive publishes a Data Privacy Pledge that describes our position on clean, ad-free reports and avoiding data deals that would undermine inspector or client trust.
Security is one part of a wider commitment. These pages cover what we will and will not do with inspection data, and the legal terms behind it.
