What Katalyz knows about you

Fair question. When you open a Katalyz room, what information does the sender — and Katalyz itself — actually collect? Here's a straightforward answer.


What the sender sees


When you interact with a Katalyz room shared by a company, that company (the sender) can see:


Identity

  • Your name (if you've been invited by email or provided it)
  • Your email address (how they identify you)
  • Your company (often inferred from your email domain)


Activity

  • When you opened the room (timestamp of each visit)
  • Which sections you visited
  • How long you spent in each section (approximate)
  • What you clicked (CTAs, downloads, etc.)
  • What you downloaded
  • Comments you posted
  • Tasks you completed
  • Meetings you booked
  • Documents you signed (including legal metadata like IP address at time of signing)


What they DON'T see

  • What you typed but didn't submit (e.g. a half-written comment you abandoned)
  • What other tabs you have open
  • Your passwords or other websites you visit
  • What you do after leaving the room


Why they see this


This tracking is the whole point of a deal room — senders use it to understand which parts of their proposal resonate and which don't. A rep who sees you spent 10 minutes on the pricing section knows pricing is top-of-mind and can address it in the next conversation.


It's not different from what you'd get with any business portal (Dropbox file views, Google Drive access logs, etc.) — it's just more granular because Katalyz is designed for deals.


What Katalyz collects


Beyond what the sender sees, Katalyz collects standard technical metadata:


  • IP address (for security and authentication)
  • Browser and OS (for compatibility and diagnostics)
  • Session identifiers (to keep you signed in)
  • Performance metrics (for product improvement — aggregated, not personal)


What Katalyz does NOT do


  • Does not sell your data — your data isn't packaged, sold, or rented to anyone
  • Does not train shared AI models on your data — no data leakage between customers
  • Does not track you across other websites — no cross-site tracking
  • Does not use your email beyond Katalyz — we don't add you to mailing lists


Your rights


Under GDPR (EU):


  • Right to access — request a copy of all data we hold about you
  • Right to correction — fix inaccurate data
  • Right to deletion — request removal of your personal data (subject to legal retention of signed documents)
  • Right to portability — get your data in a portable format


To exercise these rights:

  • Contact the sender first — they control the room and are the primary data controller for your activity in it
  • Email privacy@katalyz.co — if the sender isn't responsive or the issue involves Katalyz platform data


Security


  • All data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest
  • Modern security and privacy practices in line with industry standards
  • For specific compliance framework details (SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, regional regulations) or supporting agreements, contact us with your scenario


Your data lives in Katalyz's infrastructure (currently AWS, EU and US regions) with the same security posture as most modern SaaS products.
