What Seava is, and what it never does
The rules that make the audience trust what sits beside the results.
- Ranking is never for sale.No payment, plan or badge changes where a listing falls. The ranking rules are published in the Terms.
- Seava holds no money.Booking requests carry no payment. Users pay each other directly. Seava takes no commission and is never party to the contract.
- Seafarers never pay.Profiles, applications and replies are free for crew, in line with MLC 2006, and enforced in the product. Employers pay to contact crew; crew pay nothing to be contacted.
- Verification is a signal, not a gate."Contact verified" means a phone number was confirmed; "ID Verified" means an identity document matched the name. Seava does not vouch for anyone's work.
- Adverts are always labelled.Every placement says "Advertisement" or "Sponsored" and never looks like a result.
- Seava is a platform.It sells access to its own software: listings, search and messaging. Nothing is brokered, and no deal passes through it.
