Information we collect
We collect information you provide when you use the marketplace, such as your profile details, listings, thing photos, messages, contact methods, availability, prices, and form submissions.
When you sign in through a supported provider, we may receive basic account information needed to authenticate you, such as an identifier, display name, email address, avatar, or community membership signal.
We may also collect technical information such as IP address, browser details, device details, timestamps, pages visited, errors, and security or server logs.
How we use information
We use information to run the marketplace, show listings, support account access, deliver messages or notifications, improve reliability, investigate bugs or abuse, prevent misuse, and comply with legal or operational requirements.
We may use aggregated or de-identified information to understand marketplace activity and improve the product.
What other users can see
Marketplace content you post may be visible to other users, including thing details, photos, prices, exchange types, availability, and profile information associated with a listing or message.
Do not include sensitive information in listings, images, messages, or contact fields unless you are comfortable sharing it with the intended audience.
Sharing
We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help operate the site, such as hosting, database, storage, email, authentication, logging, or security providers.
We may disclose information if required by law, to protect users or the service, to investigate abuse, or as part of a business or infrastructure transition.
Storage and retention
We keep information for as long as reasonably needed to provide the service, maintain records, debug issues, prevent abuse, or meet legal and operational needs. Some data may remain in backups or logs for a limited period after deletion from active views.
You may request removal or correction of your content, but we cannot guarantee that every copy can be immediately removed from backups, logs, caches, or third-party systems.
Security
We use reasonable, best-effort safeguards for an MVP service, but no internet service is perfectly secure. You use the site at your own risk and should avoid sharing highly sensitive information through the marketplace.
Children
The service is not intended for children under 13. Do not use nsthings.xyz if you are not old enough to use online services under the laws that apply to you.
Changes
We may update this policy as the product, providers, or legal requirements change. Continued use of the service after an update means you accept the updated policy.
