This Privacy Policy describes how Find Antique Shops (“we”) collects, uses, and shares information when you create an account, claim a listing, or post content on the Service. It supplements information about shop data described on our About page.
We use this information to operate the Service, authenticate you, attribute contributions, communicate transactional account messages (e.g., verify email, reset password), moderate User Content, and respond to abuse reports.

We do not sell your personal information for money. Some advertising cookies set by our advertising partners may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under certain U.S. state privacy laws (for example, California’s CPRA). Where those laws apply, you can exercise your opt-out choices using the advertising controls described in Section 5.
We use first-party cookies strictly necessary for authentication and to remember your session.
On our production website we use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate traffic and how visitors use the Service. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (for example _ga) to distinguish visitors and measure usage. We have not enabled Google Analytics advertising features or ad personalization.
Our production website displays advertising through Journey by Mediavine, our advertising partner. Mediavine and its third-party advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your device and your activity on the Service, including identifiers such as your IP address and cookie IDs, to serve, measure, and (where permitted) personalize advertising. The partners involved and how they use data are described in Mediavine’s privacy policy linked above.
Depending on your location, you may have choices about interest-based advertising. Where required (for example, in the EEA and UK, or for California residents), you may be presented with a consent or preferences notice allowing you to manage or withdraw consent and exercise applicable opt-out rights. These notices and opt-out controls are provided through our advertising partner, Journey by Mediavine. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.
Google Analytics and advertising are active only on our production website; neither runs in our development or preview environments.
Account data is retained for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, your profile is removed and your User Content is either anonymized or deleted. Server logs are retained for a limited period for security and debugging purposes.
Depending on your state of residence, you may have rights under applicable U.S. state privacy laws (for example, California’s CCPA/CPRA and similar laws in other states) to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal information and to opt out of certain uses of it. You may exercise these rights at any time from your account settings, or by contacting us via our contact page.
The Service is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
We and our service providers (including Supabase and Vercel) store and process data on servers located in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, you acknowledge that your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, which may have different data-protection rules than your own country.
We may update this Privacy Policy. Material changes will be communicated on this page with an updated effective date.
