1. What this policy covers
This Privacy Policy applies to the GoodBuys website and any related tools or features we provide. By using GoodBuys, you agree to the data practices described here.
2. Information we collect
Depending on how you use GoodBuys, we may collect:
- Usage data, such as pages you visit, features you interact with, search terms, and basic technical info (browser type, approximate region, device type).
- Technical logs, such as IP address and request metadata, mainly for security and debugging.
- Contact information that you choose to provide (for example, when you send us a message through a contact form).
We do not intentionally collect sensitive categories of data (such as health, political opinions, or similar) through normal use of the site.
3. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve the GoodBuys site and features;
- Understand how people use the service so we can make it more useful;
- Respond to questions, feedback, or support requests you send us;
- Protect the security and integrity of the site and our users.
We do not sell your personal information. If we ever rely on your data for new purposes beyond what is listed here, we will update this policy and, where necessary, ask for your consent.
4. Cookies and analytics
GoodBuys may use cookies or similar technologies to remember basic preferences and to understand traffic patterns (for example, which pages are visited most often).
If analytics tools are used, they are configured to focus on aggregate trends rather than tracking individuals. You can typically manage cookies through your browser settings.
5. Data sharing
We may share limited information with service providers who help us run the site (for example, hosting, logging, or analytics vendors). These providers are only allowed to use data as needed to perform services on our behalf.
We may also disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of GoodBuys, our users, or others.
6. Data retention
We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Logs and analytics data may be retained for a limited period to help us monitor performance and security.
7. Your choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights such as:
- Requesting access to the personal information we hold about you;
- Requesting correction or deletion of your information, where applicable;
- Objecting to or limiting certain types of processing.
If you want to exercise these rights or ask about your data, contact us using the details provided on the site. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
8. Children’s privacy
GoodBuys is not designed for children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of the page. If you continue to use GoodBuys after changes take effect, you are agreeing to the revised policy.
10. Contact
If you have questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you can reach out using the contact options listed on the site.
