Nature of the service
The platform is a business-to-business software service for discovery, comparison, and related analytics over vendor listings and signals of buyer interest. The service is designed to support research and evaluation workflows. 314 Industries Pte Ltd does not execute procurements on behalf of customers, process payment for physical goods, or act as an exporter, broker, or freight forwarder for controlled items.
Information is presented as structured product and specification records with provenance where available. Listings may originate from public references or supplier-provided content until a supplier organisation claims or validates a row. Customers remain responsible for verifying information material to their decisions.
Listings, sources, and claims
Product records may be introduced through platform-controlled imports (for example, structured files or retrieval of a single public web page), with a stored source URL or equivalent reference where applicable. Ingestion is limited to material the operator is entitled to use—typically publicly available content—and must not circumvent access controls, paywalls, or applicable site terms. Automated retrieval respects robots.txt rules for generic crawlers unless a non-production override is enabled explicitly for testing.
Records without an associated supplier organisation may appear as unclaimed listings. An authorised supplier administrator may claima record to associate it with their organisation, subject to the operator's dispute handling. Claiming a record is distinct from any formal validation workflow where that workflow is offered.
Sensitive information
Free-text fields, uploads, and in-product messaging must not be used to store or transmit classified information, export-controlled technical datathat the customer is not authorised to share with the operator's hosting or model providers, or other material the customer classifies as restricted, unless a written agreement with 314 Industries Pte Ltd for this deployment expressly permits those categories of data on this service.
Export control and compliance
Geographic visibility rules and on-platform designations (including labels such as “government verified”) are product controls governing how information is displayed. They do not constitute export licences, jurisdiction determinations, or end-user checks. Suppliers remain responsible for lawful marketing of controlled technology. Government and agency users remain responsible for compliance with their own organisational and statutory obligations. This document does not replace export, legal, or compliance advice.
Security
The application implements controls appropriate to a hosted multi-tenant SaaS product, including authenticated access, transport security in production, bounded session lifetimes, rate limiting on sensitive routes, optional network restrictions for administrative functions, structured audit logging for selected platform actions, and validation of uploaded file types.
Platform technical detail is maintained in SECURITY.md in the software repository (TLS configuration, secrets handling, webhooks, scaling considerations, and subprocessors). Vulnerability reports should be directed to the security contact published for the relevant deployment.
Subprocessors and analytics
Depending on configuration, processing may involve authentication services, payment processing (where enabled), the application database and hosting environment, and optional document or language-model providers. Product analytics may be collected to improve discovery features and to present aggregate usage information to suppliers. Each deploying organisation should maintain an accurate subprocessor register for its privacy programme and data processing agreements.
Artificial intelligence
Where artificial intelligence features are enabled, they are provided as decision support only. Outputs are intended to reflect product records, specifications, and configuration visible to the requesting organisation. They do not replace procurement, legal, export, or other professional review. Customers should independently verify outputs material to a decision.
ParallaxAI, where offered to eligible verified buyer organisations, transmits a bounded text representation of product records available to that organisation—including validated specification fields only where visibility rules permit—to the configured model provider. Short excerpts of prompts and responses may be logged for operational safety and quota management. Classified and export-controlled technical data must not be entered into the assistant interface.
Privacy and waitlist
Authentication uses email and password credentials managed through the configured identity provider. Structured trial or evaluation requests create records routed to the supplier organisation concerned. Personal data should be minimised in discretionary fields, and classified or unlawfully restricted content must not be submitted.
The public waitlist collects the email address and optional information submitted through the form for the purpose of early-access communication. Waitlist data are not sold. Requests for access, correction, or deletion of waitlist personal data should be sent to the operator contact published for the deployment.
Prior to activation of a full workspace, the operator may contact the submitter to confirm organisational affiliation and suitability for access.
