Compliance & Responsible Use

The proposed inventory-to-demand pilot

Stockmate is being built to compare inventory with buyer requests, RFQs and tenders. Suppliers review specifications, quantities, delivery requirements and supporting evidence, then follow the original request to respond through its platform. The pilot is in preparation.

We are seeking authorised access through APIs, feeds or licensed data. Each connection needs its own access conditions, attribution and retention arrangements. The 147-platform research registry is not a list of live integrations or granted permissions.

What Stockmate Does NOT Do

• • Stockmate does not send emails on your behalf
• • Stockmate does not verify that a contact wants to receive marketing
• • Stockmate does not guarantee that contacts are decision-makers
• • Stockmate does not provide legal advice about cold outreach

Your Responsibilities

You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws when contacting businesses. This includes but is not limited to:

• Australia (Spam Act 2003) — B2B commercial messages must identify the sender, include accurate contact information, and honour unsubscribe requests within 5 business days. Consent may be inferred from an existing business relationship or public listing of the contact.
• GDPR (EU/EEA) — Processing personal data (including business email addresses that identify individuals) requires a lawful basis. Legitimate interest may apply to B2B outreach, but you must conduct a legitimate interest assessment and provide an opt-out.
• CAN-SPAM (US) — Commercial email must include a visible unsubscribe mechanism, accurate header information, and a physical postal address. B2B email is not exempt.
• CASL (Canada) — Requires express or implied consent for commercial electronic messages. Implied consent may exist if the recipient has published their address without a “no marketing” notice. Consent expires after 2 years.

Built-in Compliance Tools

• • Do Not Contact — any lead can be marked as “Do Not Contact” and will be excluded from future searches and exports.
• • Feedback Training — good/bad labels train Stocky, a per-account statistical model, using numeric lead signals; raw proprietary product text is excluded from model features.
• • Commercial Filter — results default to showing only commercial buyers (not individual consumers).
• • Data Minimisation — Stockmate only surfaces business contact information from public sources.

Third-party access conditions

Third-party services have their own terms, account entitlements and limits. A public listing, a supplier account or membership of a partner programme does not by itself establish permission for automated access or data reuse. Pilot access will be assessed with each source individually.

Data Retention

Lead search results are stored for your reference. You can delete individual searches from the Lead History page. Lead feedback and notes are retained to improve future search quality. Contact us at admin@stockmate.net to request full data deletion.
