How it is paid
Paid by you, and possibly by buyers
A short agreement sets its percentage, paid after you are paid. Its terms add that it may also receive compensation from buyers for introductions. It says it names potential buyers before any introduction and is not their agent or representative. Ask for the percentage, and for any buyer-side fee, in writing before the first introduction.3
Your data
Who handles your records: two answers
Its homepage says it never receives, stores or resells your data, the buyer removes personal information, and you deliver directly to the buyer. Its /start page says it goes through the records with you and takes out names, email addresses and phone numbers. Those describe different roles; ask which one you are signing up for.4
Its ads answer the question most owners ask first, whether customers' private information goes out, with "Customer details removed first".1
