Cookies

The Website uses cookie technology to improve the quality of your experience. A cookie is a small file that contains information sent by a website that is saved on the hard disk of your computer by your computer’s browser or on the storage of your mobile device. Cookies store information that a website may need in order to personalize your experience and gather website statistical data. Any time you visit the Website to browse or to read or download information, we collect and store the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet (for example, comcast.com, centurylink.com, etc.); the Internet protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using; the browser software you use and your operating system; the date and time you access the Website; and the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to the Website. We use this information to measure the number of visitors to areas of the Website, and to help us make the Website more useful and interesting to our visitors. We use information from cookies in the aggregate to analyze for trends and statistics.

Some consumers may not know that cookies are being placed on their computers when they visit websites. If you want to know when this happens, or to prevent it from happening, you can set your browser to advise you when a website attempts to place a cookie on your computer.

Disclosure of Your Information

We may share your personal information with our partners, other entities that direct you to our website for purposes of completing escrow transactions, and with third-party independent contractors for purposes of: (1) performing functions on behalf of Company, such as processing payments and managing transactions; (2) providing you with product offers or survey requests via e-mail; and (3) tracking information generated through the Website. Our partners and third-party independent contractors are ordinarily obligated contractually not to use or share your personal information for unauthorized purposes. In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

Sharing Your Information with Other Users

When transacting with others, we may provide those parties with information about you necessary to complete the transaction, such as your name, account ID, contact details, shipping and billing address, or other information needed to promote the reliability and security of the transaction. If a transaction is held, fails, or is later invalidated, we may also provide details of the unsuccessful transaction. To facilitate dispute resolution, we may provide a buyer with the seller’s address so that goods can be returned to the seller, or we may provide your information to an independent arbitrator. Neither the receiving party nor the arbitrator is allowed to use this information for unrelated purposes, such as to directly market to you, unless you have agreed to it. Contacting users with unwanted or threatening messages is against our policies and constitutes a violation of our terms of use.

We work with third parties, including merchants, to enable them to accept or send payments from or to you using our Website. In doing so, a third party may share information about you with us, such as your email address or mobile phone number, to inform you that a payment has been sent to you or when you attempt to pay a merchant or third party. We use this information to confirm that you are one of our users, that you can use our escrow services, or to send you notification of payment status. Also, if you request that we validate your status as our user with a third party, we will do so.

Please note that merchants, sellers, and users you buy from or contract with have their own privacy policies, and although our terms of use does not allow the other transacting party to use this information for anything other than providing our services, we are not responsible for their actions, including their information protection practices.

Regardless, we will not disclose your bank account number to anyone you have paid or who has paid you using our services, or with the third parties that offer or use our services, except with your express permission or if we are required to do so to comply with credit card rules, a subpoena, or other legal process.

The right to be informed

You have a right to know about our personal data protection and data processing activities, details of which are contained in this notice.

Rights with respect to automated decision-making and profiling
