Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Global Numismatic Auction collects, uses, and protects your personal information.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, and shipping address, as well as information generated through your use of the platform, such as bidding history and listing activity.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to operate the auction platform, process payments and payouts, send notifications about bids and orders, prevent fraud, and improve our services.
3. Sharing of Information
We share limited information with sellers and buyers as needed to complete a transaction (such as shipping address after a sale). We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
4. Payment Processing
Payments and payouts are handled by Stripe. We do not store your full card details on our servers — this information is managed directly by Stripe under its own privacy and security practices.
5. Cookies & Tracking
We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and remember your preferences, such as language and currency. We do not use cookies for third-party advertising.
6. Data Retention
We retain your account and transaction information for as long as your account is active and as needed to comply with legal, tax, and dispute-resolution obligations.
7. Your Rights
You can review and update your profile information from Account Settings at any time. To request deletion of your account or data, contact us through the Help widget.
8. Security
We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page with a new "last updated" date.
10. Sponsor & Advertiser Data
If you submit a sponsor banner request, we collect the contact, company, and business information you provide, along with payment details processed through Stripe, to review your request, run the banner, and maintain accounting, audit, and fraud-prevention records. Because sponsor requests are submitted without creating an account, this information is not tied to an account you can manage or delete yourself and is retained indefinitely for these purposes; to request removal, contact us through the Help widget.
11. Contact Us
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, please reach out through the Help widget or contact our support team.
