Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 1, 2025

Overview

Aperture Marketplace, Inc. operates aperture.market. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. We collect only what we need, never sell your data to third parties, and give you full control.

What We Collect

Information you provide directly:

  • Name and email address (required for account creation)
  • Profile info such as username and location (city/state)
  • Listing content including photos, descriptions, and pricing
  • Messages sent through the Aperture inbox
  • Payment info processed via Stripe (we never store card numbers)

Automatically collected:

  • IP address, browser type, and operating system
  • Pages visited, time on site, and referring URLs
  • Device identifiers and cookie data

How We Use Your Information

  • Create and manage your account
  • Process listing fees through Stripe
  • Enable messaging between buyers and sellers
  • Send transactional emails (listing confirmations, messages)
  • Prevent fraud and enforce our Terms of Service
  • Improve search, recommendations, and platform features

We will not use your information for advertising or sell it to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Information Sharing

We share your information only in limited circumstances: with other users (public listing details only — never your email or full name), with service providers like Stripe who are bound by data protection agreements, and when required by law.

Cookies

We use cookies to maintain your session and remember preferences. We use Google Analytics for aggregate traffic patterns. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Security

We implement HTTPS encryption, secure password hashing, and regular security reviews. Payment data is processed entirely through Stripe. Use a strong, unique password for your Aperture account.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time via Account Settings. California residents have additional rights under the CCPA. Contact [email protected] for data requests.
