Privacy Policy

Sealous is a marketplace that connects B2B companies with vetted freelance sales development representatives (SDRs) who book qualified sales meetings on a pay-per-meeting basis. Sealous is operated from Lithuania. We do not yet operate through a registered company entity, so this policy refers to the operator simply as "Sealous".

This policy applies to everyone who uses Sealous, whether you sign up as a business or as an SDR.

We collect the information you give us when you create an account and use the service:

• Business accounts: company name, website, industry, company size, HQ country, company registration number, contact email, and the campaign details you enter (such as your target market, brief, and the bounty you offer per meeting).
• SDR accounts: full name, email, phone number, country, years of B2B experience, industries, languages, LinkedIn URL, weekly availability, timezone, and the audition voice recordings you upload during signup so businesses can assess your calling.
• Meeting and prospect data: when an SDR books a meeting, they enter details about that meeting and the prospect (such as company and contact name) so the business can review it.
• Account and technical data: your hashed password (we never see or store your password in plain text) and the basic session information needed to keep you signed in.

We use your data to:

• create and operate your account, and confirm your email address;
• run the marketplace: match businesses with SDRs, run campaigns, and let businesses review applicants and meetings;
• send transactional email such as confirmations, approvals, meeting updates, and payout notifications;
• vet and approve accounts, and prevent fraud and abuse;
• operate, secure, and improve the service.

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

For users in the EU, we process personal data on the following bases:

• performance of a contract, to run your account and the marketplace;
• your consent, for example when you upload audition recordings;
• our legitimate interests, such as vetting accounts, preventing fraud, and improving the service;
• legal obligations, where they apply.

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time by contacting us.

We share data with a small set of providers who process it on our behalf to run the service:

• Supabase - database, authentication, and file storage, including audition recordings. Hosted in the EU.
• Resend - sending transactional email.
• Vercel - application hosting.

These providers process your data only to provide their service to us. We may also disclose data where we are required to by law. We do not currently collect payment card data; if we add payment processing in the future, it will be handled by a third-party payment processor and described here.

We keep your account data for as long as your account is active. Audition recordings are kept while your SDR account is active and are used for vetting and matching. If you ask us to delete your account, we remove your personal data, unless we are required to keep some of it to meet a legal obligation or to resolve a dispute.

Passwords are stored hashed by our authentication provider (Supabase); we never store them in plain text. Core data is hosted in the EU. Audition recordings are kept in private file storage that is not publicly accessible. Access to personal data is limited to what is needed to run the service, and email confirmation is required to activate an account.

Under the GDPR you can request access to your data, correction of inaccurate data, deletion of your data, and a copy of the data you gave us. You can also object to or ask us to restrict certain processing.

To exercise any of these rights, email contact@sealous.com and we will respond. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

We use only essential cookies needed to sign you in and keep your session active. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking.

Our core data (database, authentication, and storage) is hosted in the EU. Some of our providers, such as our email and hosting providers, may process limited data outside the EU. Where that happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make a material change, we will update the date at the top of this page. Continuing to use Sealous after a change takes effect means you accept the updated policy.

For any question about this policy or your data, email contact@sealous.com.
