Users and Roles ​

Every user in the Seen Platform has one or more roles. A role applies to one Workspace, so a user can hold a different role in each Workspace they work in.

How users are managed ​

Seen creates users and assigns their roles. To add a user, change a role or remove access, ask your designated administrator to send the request to Seen. Every account is created from a written request, so you always control who has access.

Users log in with a magic link, or with a password and optional two-factor authentication. See Log in.

The Agency role has no access to recipient data, Project runs or reporting. An agency can build and edit videos without seeing who receives them.

What only Seen can do ​

Some actions are not part of any role. Seen carries them out on your request:

  • Creating Workspaces
  • Adding, changing and removing users and their roles
  • Scrubbing all recipient data in a Workspace, for example at the end of an agreement

Seen personnel ​

Seen staff with administrative access to the Seen Platform can access Workspaces to provide support and operate the Platform. This access is restricted to authorised personnel.
