Can I give a copy of Xenforo to someone for templating work?

I have someone who tells me they will make a template for my forum.

I was wondering if it was safe to give them a copy of Xenforo for testing it.

Will it have my personal information on it so that if it leaks, then my license would be terminated?

If you want someone to create a style for you then they must either use their own license, or use your installation to create the style.

You'd be better off contacting someone who is familiar with XenForo anyways, as there is a lesser chance of shoddy work.
 
I can not imagine any circumstance in which file system access would be necessary to create a style. Giving them admin access to a private(password protected) install would probably be best. If they say they need it for images then give them a blank directory.
