Privacy Policy

Last updated: placeholder date

Placeholder content — not legal advice. This text was generated to unblock development and has not been reviewed by a lawyer. Replace it with real Privacy Policy / Terms of Service content before any real user signs up, especially given this app collects email addresses, will eventually process payments, and facilitates in-person exchanges of goods between strangers.

1. Information we collect

When you create an account, we collect your email address (verified via a one-time code) and, optionally, your name and profile photo. When you use the marketplace, we collect the listings you post (titles, descriptions, photos, prices, trade preferences) and the offers you make or receive (proposed prices, trade item descriptions and photos).

2. How we use your information

We use this information to operate the marketplace: creating and securing your account, displaying your listings to other users, connecting buyers and sellers, and communicating with you about your account or transactions.

3. Sharing with other users

Your listings, and the name on your profile, are visible to other signed-in users. If you make or receive an offer, the other party to that offer can see your name and the offer details. [Placeholder: specify whether/when contact info is shared between transacting parties.]

4. Service providers

We use third-party providers to operate this app: Clerk (identity verification and authentication), Supabase (database hosting), and Cloudflare (application hosting and photo storage). [Placeholder: add a payments processor once payments launch.] These providers process data on our behalf and are bound by their own privacy and security commitments.

5. Data retention

[Placeholder: specify how long account, listing, and offer data is retained after account deletion or listing removal.]

6. Your rights

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting us at [placeholder contact email]. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable law.

7. Children's privacy

This app is not intended for use by anyone under 18.

8. Changes to this policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we'll ask you to review and accept the updated version the next time you sign in.

9. Contact
