What Data The Platform Handles

The platform can hold user account details, company profile information, market objectives, capacity requests, provider appetite profiles, scheme opportunities, distribution outlets, territories, GWP ranges, exclusions and workflow notes.

It can also hold document metadata, uploaded due diligence files, introduction status, audit records, lead enquiries and email notification activity.

How Data Is Used

Marketplace data is used to operate the platform, review registrations, assess opportunity readiness, match appetite, manage conflicts, request documents, approve introductions and track outcomes.

Lead and enquiry data is used to respond to public form submissions and route interested organisations into the correct onboarding or review workflow.

Review And Retention

Operational data should be retained only for as long as needed for marketplace operation, legal, compliance, audit or legitimate business purposes.

Retention periods should be reviewed as the platform moves from launch into live commercial use, especially for documents, audit records and inactive accounts.

How we protect confidential capacity searches

Capacity seekers can use anonymous or confidential review, add excluded providers and keep sensitive detail inside the platform workflow until the request is ready to progress.
