Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are and Scope

EasierSell ("EasierSell," "we," "us," or "our") operates the EasierSell website, apps, and done-for-you resale service that connects people who want to sell their belongings ("Consignors") with vetted professional sellers ("Pro Sellers").

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we collect through our website, mobile experiences, and services. It applies to Consignors, Pro Sellers, visitors, and anyone who contacts us.

By using EasierSell, you agree to the practices described in this policy. This policy works together with our Terms of Service, Consignor Agreement, and Pro Seller Agreement.

• Process payouts and payments, and meet tax and financial reporting obligations.
• Verify identity, vet Pro Sellers, and keep the marketplace safe from fraud and abuse.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as described below:

• With service providers: Payment processors, shipping and logistics partners, identity and background-check vendors, hosting, analytics, and customer-support tools that act on our behalf under contract.
• For legal reasons: When required by law, to respond to lawful requests, to protect our rights, or to prevent fraud, harm, or abuse.
• In business transfers: If EasierSell is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this policy.
• With your consent: In any other case where you direct or permit us to share.

[If any advertising partners receive data in ways that could be considered a "sale" or "sharing" under state laws such as CCPA/CPRA, this must be disclosed and an opt-out provided — finalize with counsel.]

5. Data Retention

We keep your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, complete sales, process payouts, and meet legal, tax, accounting, and dispute-resolution obligations. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.

[Specify retention periods per data category — finalize with legal.]

6. How We Protect Your Information

We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and secure payment handling through trusted processors. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your data at every step.

[Detail specific security measures at a level appropriate for disclosure — finalize.]
