4. Legal basis for processing

We process your personal information where it is necessary to:

• Perform our contract with you (for example, managing your account and listings).
• Comply with legal and accounting obligations (such as keeping basic payment records).
• Pursue our legitimate interests (such as preventing abuse of the platform and improving our services), provided these are not overridden by your rights.

5. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited information with:

• Payment providers (such as PayPal) to process your transactions securely.
• Technical service providers who help us host, maintain or analyse our website, under appropriate data protection terms.
• Authorities or regulators where we are legally required to do so.

You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling certain cookies may affect how the site functions.

7. How long we keep your data

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period afterwards where required for legal, tax or accounting purposes, or to resolve disputes. Transaction and invoice data may be kept for longer where required by law.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Request corrections to inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Request deletion of your data, where applicable.
