Collection
You can browse the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to provide us with personal information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information to our servers located in the United States.
We may collect and store the following personal information:
- Email address, physical contact information, and (depending on the service used) sometimes financial information, such as credit card or bank account numbers.
- Transactional information based on your activities on the Site (such as buying, selling, and searching).
- Computer sign-on data, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Site, IP address, and standard web log information.
- Supplemental information from third parties, as permitted by law.
Marketing
We don't sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We may combine your information with information we collect from other companies (such as demographic data) to improve and personalize our services.
Use
Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. You agree that we may use your personal information to provide services and customer support you request; resolve disputes and troubleshoot problems; prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities and enforce our User Agreement; customize, measure, and improve our services and the Site's content and layout; tell you about targeted marketing, service updates, and promotional offers based on your communication preferences; and compare information for accuracy and verify it with third parties.
Our Disclosure of Your Information
We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that a listing or other content violates the rights of others, or protect anyone's rights, property, or safety. We may also share your personal information with members of our corporate family; other third parties to whom you explicitly ask us to send your information; law enforcement or other governmental officials in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity; and other business entities, should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity.
Cookies
We use cookies (small files placed on your hard drive) on certain pages of the Site to help analyze our web page flow, customize our services, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. We offer certain features that are only available through the use of cookies, and we use cookies to help identify you and maintain your signed-in status. Most cookies are session cookies and are automatically deleted at the end of a session. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your use of the Site.
No Spam, Spyware or Spoofing
We filter and automatically scan messages before they are sent for viruses and other illegal or prohibited content, but do not permanently store email messages sent through these tools.
Account Protection
Your password is the key to your account. Use unique numbers, letters, and special characters and do not disclose your password to anyone. If you share your password or personal information with others, you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately notify us and change your password.
Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Personal Information
You can see, review, and change most of your personal information by logging into the Site. You must promptly update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance with applicable law. We retain personal information from closed accounts in order to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, and enforce our User Agreement.
Security
Your information is stored on our servers located in the United States. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use many tools (encryption, passwords, physical security, etc.) to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Although we work hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.
Third Parties
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. Since we do not control the privacy policies of third parties, you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
California Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance
Because we value your privacy we have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with the California Online Privacy Protection Act. We therefore will not distribute your personal information to outside parties without your consent.
