Privacy policy

What we collect

• Account data: email, display name, and the roles on your account.
• Profile data: optional bio, photo, and the city or region you shop in.
• Location data: approximate location you provide to power local search.
• Usage data: pages viewed and actions taken, recorded as product analytics.
• Transaction data: orders, fulfillment details, and payout records (payment card details stay with the payment provider).

How we use it

To run the marketplace: showing relevant local results, processing orders, preventing abuse, supporting your account, and improving the product. We keep audit records of money movement, moderation, and administrative actions.

What we don't do

We don't sell your personal information, and we don't share your contact details with merchants beyond what an order requires.

Your controls

• View and edit your profile at any time.
• Request a copy of your data or deletion of your account.
• Opt out of non-essential email.

Retention

Account records are kept while your account is active. Transaction and audit records are retained as long as required for tax, accounting, and dispute resolution.
