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.
