Furs4Sale — Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 25, 2026 · Effective: June 25, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how TJB Partners LLC ("Furs4Sale," "we," "us") collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you use the Furs4Sale marketplace (the "Service"). It applies to users in the United States and Canada. By using the Service you agree to this Policy and to our Terms of Service.

1. Information we collect

You give us: - Account & profile: name, email, password or third-party login identifier, and any display name, avatar, bio, and contact info you add. - Listings & content: photos, descriptions, prices, reviews, and messages you send other users. - Transactions: items bought/sold, order history, and shipping addresses.

We collect automatically: - Usage & device data: IP address, browser/device type, pages viewed, and similar log data, via cookies and similar technologies (Section 6).

We receive from third parties: - Social login: basic profile/identity from Google, Facebook, or Apple when you sign in with them. - Payments: account status and verification signals from Stripe.

Payment card data. Card payments are processed by Stripe. We do not collect or store full payment-card numbers.

2. How we use information

We use personal information to: create and manage accounts and authenticate you; operate the marketplace (list items, process orders, enable payouts, support fulfillment); send transactional emails (order, shipping, messaging, and account notices) via our email provider; prevent fraud and enforce our Terms and policies (including moderation and seller suspension); provide customer support; comply with legal obligations (including tax and fur-product regulations); and maintain and improve the Service.

3. How we share information

We are not in the business of selling your personal information. We share it only as described here:

  • With other users (to complete transactions). When you buy or sell, the buyer and seller see each other's name and shipping address as needed to fulfill the order. Your public profile, listings, and reviews are visible to other users.
  • With service providers (subprocessors) who process data on our behalf under contract: (image storage and content delivery).
    • Stripe — payments, payouts, identity verification, fraud prevention.
    • Amazon Web Services (AWS) — Cognito (authentication) and S3 / CloudFront
    • Resend — transactional email delivery.

We do not use third-party analytics or advertising providers at launch. - For legal & safety reasons — to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, enforce our Terms, or protect the rights, safety, and property of users or the public. - Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice as required by law.

"Sale"/"Sharing" (CCPA). We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not "share" it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We nonetheless honor opt-out requests and browser opt-out signals (Section 7).

4. Cookies & tracking technologies

We use only strictly-necessary/essential cookies (e.g., for login/session and security) and do not use analytics or advertising cookies. You can control cookies through your browser. We honor recognized browser-based opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) (Section 7).

5. Data retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes in this Policy and to meet legal, tax, accounting, and dispute-resolution obligations, then delete or de-identify it. Our general retention periods are: account data: for the life of your account plus 1 year; transaction and tax records: 7 years; messages: 3 years; server logs: 12 months.

6. How we protect information

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards — including encryption in transit (TLS), reliance on Stripe for card data, access controls, and least-privilege practices. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your privacy rights (US)

Depending on where you live and applicable law, you may have the right to: access/know the personal information we hold; correct inaccurate information; delete your information; obtain a portable copy; opt out of targeted advertising, the sale of personal data, or certain profiling; and not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

  • Universal opt-out / Global Privacy Control. We honor recognized browser opt-out signals (GPC) as an opt-out of targeted advertising/sale where applicable.
  • Profiling (Minnesota). Where Minnesota's Consumer Data Privacy Act applies, you may also question the result of profiling, be informed of the reason for a profiling decision, and review the personal data used.
  • "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information." Even though we do not sell or share data as defined by law, you may submit a request via Section 9 and we will treat it as an opt-out.
  • Appeals. If we deny a privacy request, you may appeal by replying to our decision or contacting us at privacy@furs4sale.com; if we deny your appeal you may contact your state Attorney General.

Note: Some US state privacy laws apply only to businesses above certain size/revenue thresholds. We honor the rights above as our standard practice and as required where those laws apply to us.

8. Your privacy rights (Canada — PIPEDA & Quebec Law 25)

For users in Canada: - Consent. We collect, use, and disclose personal information with your consent and for the purposes described here. You may withdraw consent (subject to legal/contractual limits). - Access & correction. You may request access to, and correction of, the personal information we hold about you. - Accountability & Privacy Officer. We have designated a Privacy Officer accountable for our compliance. Contact: Brian Sokoloski, Privacy Officer, privacy@furs4sale.com, 858 140th Ave, Fairmont, MN 56031-1338, USA. - Service providers & transfers. We remain responsible for personal information we transfer to service providers (e.g., Stripe, AWS, Resend) and require them by contract to provide a comparable level of protection and to use the information only for the purposes we specify. - Cross-border processing. Your personal information is processed and stored in the United States and may be accessible to US authorities under US law. By using the Service, Canadian users acknowledge this transfer. - Breach notification. We will notify the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (and, for Quebec, the Commission d'accès à l'information) and affected individuals of a breach posing a real risk of significant harm, as required by law.

10. Children's privacy

The Service is intended for users 18 and older and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact privacy@furs4sale.com and we will delete it.

11. Marketing emails

We send only transactional/service messages necessary to operate the Service, and we do not send marketing emails at launch. If we send marketing or promotional email in the future, we will include an unsubscribe link (CAN-SPAM), and for Canadian recipients we will obtain consent and comply with CASL before sending commercial electronic messages.

12. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy. We will post the updated version with a new "Last updated" date and, for material changes, provide additional notice (e.g., email or in-app). Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
