Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 28, 2026

SeekViews is a pilot platform designed to help underseen projects and curious people find each other through private matching and voluntary attention.

This Privacy Policy explains what information SeekViews collects, how it is used, what participating creators may see, and the boundaries we place around tracking and identity.

Information we collect

If you submit a project, we may collect information such as:

  • your email address;
  • project name and URL;
  • a factual description of what you made;
  • your “What makes it worth a look?” description;
  • the intended audience for the project;
  • project format;
  • language;
  • selected interests.

If you participate as a Discoverer or Scout, we may collect:

  • your email address;
  • interests you choose to provide;
  • which projects were shown to you;
  • whether you chose Visit, Skip, or Save;
  • optional reactions such as “Worth seeing” or “Not for me”;
  • optional written feedback;
  • information about batches sent to you and whether they were opened or completed.

SeekViews does not require you to review, visit, save, or react to any project.

How matching works

SeekViews may use information you explicitly provide, such as project interests and Discoverer interests, to decide which projects may be relevant to which people.

During the pilot, matching may also involve manual review and selection by SeekViews.

We do not use external browsing histories to determine which projects you receive.

What creators can see

SeekViews does not reveal Discoverer or Scout identities to project creators.

Creators may receive limited project-level results such as:

  • how many matched people were shown their project;
  • how many chose the Visit link;
  • saves;
  • optional reactions;
  • anonymous written feedback.

A creator may receive results even when only a small number of people have seen a project. For that reason, these results should not necessarily be understood as anonymous statistical aggregates.

Scout or Discoverer names, email addresses, and other direct identifying information are not included in creator results.

Written feedback is shown to the creator without the Discoverer’s identity.

External websites

When you choose Visit, the project opens on its own external website.

SeekViews records that you chose the Visit link.

SeekViews does not track or verify what happens after you leave SeekViews for the external website.

We do not place SeekViews inside an iframe for this purpose, and we do not intentionally use SeekViews to monitor your browsing activity across participating project websites.

External websites have their own privacy practices and may independently collect information about their visitors. SeekViews does not control those practices.

Saved projects and reactions

If you save a project, SeekViews may store that action so it can be reflected within the pilot and in project-level results.

If you provide an optional reaction or written comment, SeekViews may associate that response internally with the relevant batch and project in order to operate the pilot.

Your identity is not shown to the project creator as part of that feedback.

Email

If you choose to participate as a Discoverer or Scout and agree to receive pilot emails, SeekViews may use your email address to send matched discovery batches or other messages directly related to your participation in the pilot.

We do not require a fixed delivery schedule.

You may ask us to stop sending these messages.

Analytics

SeekViews uses Google Analytics through Site Kit by Google to understand basic website usage.

Depending on your consent choices and Google’s configuration, analytics information may include data such as:

  • pages viewed;
  • approximate geographic information;
  • device and browser information;
  • traffic source;
  • basic interaction and session information.

Analytics data is separate from the private project feedback provided to creators.

Google may process analytics information according to its own privacy practices.

Cookies and consent choices

SeekViews uses CookieYes to provide cookie consent controls.

When you first visit SeekViews, you may be offered options such as:

  • Accept All;
  • Reject All;
  • Customise.

Necessary cookies may be used for functionality, security, session management, and remembering privacy choices.

With your permission, analytics cookies may also be used to understand basic site usage and improve the pilot.

SeekViews uses Google Consent Mode through Site Kit to communicate relevant consent choices to supported Google services.

You can revisit your cookie preferences through the consent controls provided on the website.

How we use information

We may use information collected through SeekViews to:

  • operate the pilot;
  • review submitted projects;
  • match projects with potentially relevant people;
  • create and deliver discovery batches;
  • record voluntary choices such as Visit, Skip, Save, and optional reactions;
  • provide private project-level results to creators;
  • prevent duplicate, abusive, or fraudulent activity;
  • evaluate whether the SeekViews concept is working;
  • improve the matching and discovery experience;
  • respond to privacy, support, or administrative requests.

What we do not do

SeekViews does not currently:

  • sell personal information to advertisers or project creators;
  • reveal Discoverer identities to participating creators;
  • require view-for-view participation;
  • require people to visit or review projects;
  • use traffic credits;
  • use popularity rankings to determine a project’s first opportunity;
  • intentionally monitor people across external participating websites.

Selling personal information

SeekViews does not sell personal information to advertisers or project creators.

Paying for promotion does not currently determine who receives a first opportunity through the SeekViews pilot.

Data retention

We keep pilot information only for as long as it is reasonably useful for operating, evaluating, securing, and improving SeekViews, or where retention is reasonably necessary for administrative or legal purposes.

Because SeekViews is an early pilot, retention practices may evolve as the product develops.

Your choices and requests

You may contact SeekViews to request, where applicable:

  • access to information associated with your email address;
  • correction of inaccurate information;
  • deletion of information associated with your email address;
  • withdrawal from pilot emails.

Some information may need to be retained where reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, legal obligations, or legitimate administrative records.

Children

SeekViews is not designed specifically for children.

If we learn that personal information from a child was submitted in circumstances where parental or other legally required consent was necessary, we may delete that information.

Security

SeekViews takes reasonable measures intended to protect pilot information.

However, no website, database, email system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Third-party services

SeekViews relies on third-party services to operate parts of the website, including hosting, analytics, security, and cookie-consent technologies.

Those providers may process limited information according to their own terms and privacy practices.

Changes to this policy

SeekViews is an early pilot and the product may change.

This Privacy Policy may therefore be updated as the service evolves.

Material changes will be reflected on this page by updating the “Last updated” date above.
