# Can subscriber controls prevent other firms from pulling CDD without consent?

## Yes: the originating firm chooses per-party or per-transaction whether to make the CDD record available to a relying.

**Please note:** in-platform KYC/KYB sharing between easyAML firms is not currently available - it is coming soon. The controls below describe how sharing will work once the feature is released.

**Yes - sharing is opt-in.** The originating firm (the one that performed the CDD) chooses **per party, several parties or all parties** within a transaction whether to make the CDD record available to a relying firm. No firm can pull another firm's CDD without explicit consent.

How the control works:

- **Per-party granularity** - if a transaction involves multiple individuals (e.g. buyer, seller, joint owners), the originating firm can share CDD for some but not others.
- **Reliance agreements at the master level** - a formal reliance arrangement must be in place between the firms before any sharing can occur. The platform enforces this at the system level.
- **Notifications when CDD is shared** - the originating firm receives notification when a verified CDD they performed is accessed by a relying firm under an active reliance agreement. The audit trail captures the access.
- **Revocation supported** - the originating firm can revoke a share if circumstances change (e.g. relationship with the relying firm ends, customer requests deletion).

This sharing-with-consent model protects all parties - the customer (their identity data isn't shared without authorisation), the originating firm (their CDD work isn't appropriated), and the relying firm (the access they have is documented and audit-defensible).
