Privacy Centre

How we collect, use, share, and retain personal data across WEARHOUSE.

Last updated April 2026

This Privacy Centre summarises WEARHOUSE data practices for buyers, sellers, and visitors. It supports transparency goals but is not a substitute for a jurisdiction-specific privacy notice reviewed by counsel. Cross-links to cookies and terms appear throughout; data subject request channels belong in your final legal pack.

Privacy UX should be understandable at a glance - details stay available for those who want depth.

Who we are

The data controller is the legal entity operating WEARHOUSE in your region (insert name, registration number, and postal address). EU/UK representatives, DPO contact, and Brazilian LGPD articles should be appended where applicable.

Categories of personal data
  • Identity & contact - name, username, email, phone, date of birth where required.
  • Account & profile - bio, photo, preferences, connected social logins.
  • Commercial - listings, messages, orders, shipping labels, payout details (often via payment partners).
  • Technical - device IDs, IP address, logs, crash diagnostics, approximate location from IP.
  • Inferences - fraud scores, content relevance, policy risk signals.

Purposes & legal bases

We process data to perform our contract with you (service delivery), pursue legitimate interests (security, product improvement, analytics with safeguards), comply with law (tax, AML where required), and - where needed - rely on consent (e.g. certain marketing cookies or emails).

Sharing

We disclose data to processors bound by contract (cloud, email, customer support tooling, analytics, payments, shipping carriers) and to other members when necessary to complete a transaction (e.g. seller sees buyer shipping address). Authorities receive data when legally compelled. We do not sell personal information as defined by U.S. state laws - if that changes, we update this notice and any required toggles.

International transfers

Where data leaves your country, we rely on adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses (SCCs) with supplementary measures as assessed by our privacy team. Members in the EEA/UK/Switzerland should see the full transfer impact analysis in the long-form notice.

Retention

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above, including statutory books-and-records periods, dispute resolution, and model training where permitted with de-identification. Messaging content may be retained shorter than financial records - specifics belong in your retention schedule appendix.

Your rights

Depending on location, you may access, rectify, delete, restrict, object, port data, or withdraw consent. You may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. We respond within statutory timelines and may need identity verification before fulfilling sensitive requests.

Automated decision-making, if any, requires extra transparency - describe logic and human review options.

Children

WEARHOUSE is not directed at children under the age where consent is required without parental involvement. Disable accounts if discovered.

Cookies & similar tech

See the Cookie Policy for types, lifetimes, and controls. Essential cookies remain on for security even if marketing cookies are declined.

Updates

We revise this Centre when practices or laws change. Material updates receive prominent notice; archived versions are available on request where required.
