Communications

Our communication method is by email only.

We will never send emails requesting any information from you, EVER. If you receive an email that asks for information you'll do best to delete it as it is not from us.

Transaction Communications - These communications are sent when you transact with us or when a buyer transacts with you. We also consider payment updates and reminders as well as system notifications to be transaction communications. As such you will not able to opt-out/unsubscribe from these emails.

Marketing Communications - Occasionally we send out marketing emails. These communications provide an opt-out/unsubscribe method. If you wish to opt out of these types of communications know that you may not be able to learn about services that will benefit you.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We will not sell your information to third parties.

We will display information that you post to your store settings. Any information you choose to provide should reflect how much you want others to know about you. We advise that you carefully consider what information you choose to post. You can review and revise this information at any time within the User Dashboard.

We will provide your information via transactional email confirmations and through reports to sellers that you purchase from. We are not responsible for how this information is used or who may view it. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of sellers you plan to purchase from so you are fully informed about how your information will be used.

We may share or disclose your information, with your consent only, to third parties such as payment processors, email marketing vendors, etc...

We may use certain trusted third party companies and individuals to help us provide, analyze, and improve our service. These third parties may have access to your information only for purposes of performing these tasks on our behalf and under obligations in this Privacy Policy.

We may share your information with third party application(s) that you have chosen to use within our service. By using these third party applications you consent to information being shared and disclosed with said third party. For example, you choose to use PayPal Payment Services as your payment provider to accept and make payments. We are not responsible for what those parties do with your information. We advise that you make sure you trust the application and that it has a privacy policy acceptable to you.

We may disclose information when we have a good faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law (regulation or compulsory legal request), protect the safety of any person from death or serious bodily injury, prevent fraud or abuse of our users and service, to protect our property rights.

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale your information may be transferred as a part of that transaction. We will notify you of any change in control or use of your information.

We may disclose certain non-private aggregated information such as usage statistics about our service.

Data Retention

We will retain your information as long as your account is active. After account cancellation or suspension we will purge uploaded content and settings. We will always and forever keep the base information that was used to create your account, which includes your first name, last name and email address. We do this to permit you to come back in the future and re-open your account (except for banned users).

Links to Third Parties

We offer the ability to get involved with trusted vendors such as Payment Processors, Email Marketing Providers, and the like. If you choose to become involved with those third parties through our service you do so at your own risk. Third party services providers privacy practices may differ from our privacy practices. Your information will be governed by their privacy statements, not ours. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any third party before becoming involved with them.
