Transparency alternatives to Cost Brain
Other Catering and event management vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Cost Brain. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 32 that differ from Cost Brain on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Cost Brain has 10 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Status page with history, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, HTTPS enforced with HSTS, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at Cost Brain” is the one that closes them.
