Privacy Policy

1) Information We Process

• Authentication data: session tokens (e.g., JWT) associated with your Auction Gateway Manager account.
• Basic profile data: username and email used to personalize your experience and show your dashboard.
• Session cookies metadata: information necessary to determine whether you are signed in to supported auction platforms and to maintain your active sessions.
• Usage events: non‑content telemetry required to keep your bids/purchases view in sync (e.g., timestamp, platform page type).

We do not collect the content of your private messages on auction platforms and do not sell personal data.

2) Purpose of Processing

• Authenticate you and maintain secure sessions with supported auction platforms.
• Synchronize your auction activity (e.g., bids and purchases) with your Auction Gateway Manager dashboard.
• Provide support and improve the reliability and performance of the Extension.

3) Legal Bases (EEA/UK)

• Performance of a contract: to provide the Extension's core functionality to your account.
• Legitimate interests: to keep services secure, prevent abuse, and improve features expected by users.

4) Sharing & Disclosure

We share data only as needed to operate the Extension:

• Auction platforms: Copart, IAAI, and Manheim, to enable the functions you request.
• Service providers: infrastructure and analytics providers acting on our behalf under data‑processing agreements.

We do not sell personal information.

5) Cookies

The Extension relies on browser cookies from supported auction platforms solely to verify login status and maintain session continuity. You can clear cookies in your browser settings, which may affect functionality.

6) Data Retention

We retain personal data for as long as necessary to provide the Extension and comply with legal obligations. When no longer needed, data is deleted or anonymized.

7) Security

We use technical and organizational safeguards, including encrypted transport (TLS) and secure storage mechanisms, to protect personal data.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or portability of your personal data, and to object to processing where applicable. You can exercise these rights by contacting us (see Contact).

9) International Transfers

If we transfer personal data across borders, we implement appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses) as required by law.
