This is information you willingly give us when creating an account, or contacting us.
- Account Data: Your name, email address, postal address, and phone number.
- Communications: Records of correspondence when you contact us for support or inquiries.
- Payment Data: If you purchase a paid service (e.g., featured listing), we or our third-party payment processor collect payment information (e.g., credit card details). We do not store sensitive payment details ourselves.
B. Information We Collect Automatically
When you access the Service, we automatically record certain information:
- Usage Data: Details about how you use the Service, such as the search terms you use, the pages you view, and the time and duration of your visits.
- Device Data: Information about the device you use to access the Service, including IP address, operating system, browser type, and device identifiers.
- Location Data: General location data derived from your IP address or, if enabled, precise location data from your mobile device.
- Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and similar technologies (like web beacons) to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. (See Section 5).
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To Provide the Service: To operate and maintain the website, allow you to post and view ads, and facilitate communication between buyers and sellers.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- With Other Users (For Transactions): When you post a classified ad, certain information (such as your username, general location, and contact methods you choose to share) will be publicly visible to facilitate a transaction.
- Service Providers: We share information with third-party vendors, consultants, and service providers who need access to your information to perform services on our behalf (e.g., payment processing, hosting, data analysis).
- Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights or property, or ensure the safety of our users or the public.
- Business Transfers: In connection with any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company.
Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.
- What they are: Cookies are small data files stored on your device.
- How we use them: We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your device until deleted) to provide a better user experience and analyze Service performance.
- Your Choices: You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.
We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. However, no security system is impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.
We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, including the time required to comply with our legal obligations.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Effective Date” at the top of this policy.
