Privacy

Status of this page

To be completed: A complete privacy policy requires decisions that have not been made — hosting provider, analytics tooling (if any), affiliate networks, and the operating legal entity. This page describes what the software does today and will be replaced by a full policy before launch. Do not treat it as a legal document.

What the current build collects

As implemented today, AuctionDex:

• has no accounts, no sign-in and no user profiles;
• sets no cookies of its own and uses no browser storage;
• runs no analytics, advertising or third-party tracking scripts;
• keeps your filter choices in the page URL only — nothing is stored on a server or on your device;
• asks for no personal information at any point.

Marketplace data and eBay account deletion

AuctionDex retrieves public marketplace listing information — titles, prices, bid counts, end times and listing photos published by sellers. It does not require visitors to connect an eBay account, and there is currently no way to do so.

eBay requires every application using its APIs to expose an endpoint that receives marketplace account deletion notifications. AuctionDex operates such an endpoint for compliance. Because the site holds no eBay marketplace-user account data, a notification is acknowledged and no stored personal data exists to erase.

AuctionDex does not currently retain eBay marketplace-user account data — no eBay user IDs, usernames, seller identifiers, linked accounts or user OAuth tokens. If account-linked features are introduced later, deletion requests will remove the applicable stored account-linked data, and this page will be updated to describe exactly what is held.

Server logs

Any web host records basic request information such as IP address, timestamp and user agent as a normal part of serving traffic.

To be completed: Retention periods and the host’s own data handling cannot be stated until a hosting provider is chosen.

Leaving the site

Auction cards link to third-party marketplaces. Once you follow a link you are on that marketplace’s site, subject to its privacy policy — not this one. Outbound links may carry affiliate tracking parameters that identify AuctionDex as the referrer; see the affiliate disclosure.

Listing images are loaded directly from the marketplace, which means the marketplace can see that your browser requested those images.
