Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 17, 2026
About this policy
Marketplace LLC operates marketplacellc.net (the Site). This policy explains how we handle personal information in connection with our retail store, auctions, consignments, customer accounts and related services. Contact customerservice@marketplacellc.net with privacy questions or requests.
Information you provide
We collect information you submit when you create an account, place an order or bid, arrange a consignment, request a quote, return goods, seek warranty help or contact us. Depending on the service, this includes your name, email, phone number, billing and shipping addresses, account credentials, order and bidding records, inventory details, correspondence, support-chat messages and attachments. We also receive relevant payment, delivery and service updates from the providers involved in your transaction.
Payments
Payments use the payment provider and methods offered at checkout. The provider processes the payment details you enter. Our order records contain transaction references, selected payment methods, amounts, currency and payment status; the website's checkout flow does not store full card numbers or card security codes in those records. Do not send card numbers, security codes or passwords in reviews, email or support messages.
Technical information and cookies
When you use the Site, our systems and hosting or security providers receive technical information such as your IP address, browser request details, pages requested and request times. Cookies and browser storage support necessary functions such as sign-in, security, shopping sessions and saved preferences. Blocking necessary storage may prevent parts of the Site from working.
Our website analytics choices
The Site offers Necessary only and Allow analytics choices for its own analytics tools. If you allow analytics, our first-party tools record page, product, auction and service views, banner interactions, selected product-media interactions, device category, referring website, campaign attribution and session activity. Analytics may be associated with your customer account when you are signed in. Where available, we derive an approximate city from your internet connection; this is not GPS tracking. Inquiry text, contact details, payment details, passwords, private bids and chat messages are not included in these analytics events.
Your analytics choice is saved in this browser. To change it, clear this Site's local storage in your browser's site settings and choose again when the privacy prompt returns. Clearing site data may also sign you out or reset other preferences. Choosing Necessary only stops these first-party analytics events; it does not stop processing needed for security, purchases or services. Traditional Do Not Track browser signals do not change this first-party analytics setting. Our built-in analytics do not track your activity across unrelated websites.
Google Analytics
We also use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, to understand how visitors use the Site and help improve it. Depending on the settings in use, Google Analytics uses cookies or similar identifiers and processes information about your device and browser, page visits, referring websites and interactions. Google receives your IP address when its services are contacted and may use it to derive a general location. Information is sent to and processed by Google to provide the analytics service.
For information about Google's handling of this data, see:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
https://policies.google.com/privacy
On supported browsers, Google's Analytics opt-out add-on can prevent supported Google Analytics tags from using your visit data. It does not disable our own first-party analytics or collection by other services. Details and supported browsers:

How we use information
We use information to operate and secure accounts; process purchases, bids and consignment arrangements; provide shipping, returns, refunds and warranty services; answer questions; send requested notifications and transaction updates; moderate reviews; prevent fraud and abuse; maintain business records; and meet legal obligations. Optional analytics help us understand and improve the Site and our services. If you request marketing communications, you may ask us to stop them by contacting us. Essential order, account and service notices may still be sent.
Reviews and videos
Submitting a review is optional and requires acceptance of the Customer Review Policy. Approved reviews may display your first name and last initial, rating, review text, submission date, verified-purchase label and submitted video. A video may identify you or others more fully than your displayed name. Homepage billboard use requires the separate optional permission on the review form. We retain submission history and the consent record. Avoid including private information about yourself or others. Contact us to request removal or withdraw billboard permission; information already copied by other people may remain outside our control.
When information is shared
We do not use advertising pixels. We do not sell customer lists or share them with outside businesses for their own marketing.
We disclose information needed by providers that support hosting, analytics (including Google Analytics), payment processing, delivery, customer communications, security, accounting and other services used to fulfill your request. This may include contact and address details, transaction references, order or shipment details, and relevant correspondence. Review material you authorize for publication is public. We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to valid legal requests, or to protect people, property and legal rights.
Third-party services
Links, external checkout pages and any third-party media loaded through the Site may send your browser information to their operators. Those operators may use cookies and handle information under their own privacy policies, including across other services. Review their notices before using them. The first-party analytics described above are distinct from those external services.
Retention and security
We retain information for the purposes described here, taking account of account activity, transaction completion, returns and warranty periods, consignment settlement, recordkeeping obligations, fraud prevention and disputes. These factors determine how long different records are needed. A deletion request does not require us to erase records we must or are permitted to retain by law; backup copies may remain until their normal replacement cycle. We use safeguards intended to protect personal information, but no website, transmission or storage system can guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and privacy requests
You can review available account information after signing in and contact customerservice@marketplacellc.net to request access, correction or deletion. Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may also have rights to obtain a copy, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, opt out of a sale or sharing for targeted advertising where applicable, appeal a decision, or complain to a privacy regulator. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal. We may need to verify your identity or an authorized agent's authority, and will explain any applicable limits or exceptions. Do not send sensitive identity documents unless we explain why they are necessary and how to provide them securely. We will not penalize you for exercising applicable privacy rights.
Location of processing
Our service providers may process information in locations different from where you live. Where a law requires particular safeguards for an international transfer, we must use those safeguards. Contact us for information about the providers and locations relevant to your transaction.
Children
The Site and its purchasing and bidding services are intended for adults aged 18 and older. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Changes and contact
We will post changes on this page and update the date above. For material changes, we will provide an additional notice on the Site or contact affected customers where required. Privacy requests and questions may be sent to customerservice@marketplacellc.net or by mail to:
