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 is hosted on AWS in Paris (eu-west-3), in the European Union, whatever country you're in — with the same security posture as most modern SaaS products.
