The types of personal information we collect include:

Contact and sign-up information: name, email address, and any information you include in your message or submission.

Marketplace and vendor relationship records: information created or provided in connection with your access to and use of the marketplace platform as a vendor (for example, records related to vendor-to-vendor activity and platform access).

Device and technical information: IP address, browser type, and similar technical information needed to load and protect the website and maintain its functionality.

Cookie preference information: your cookie consent preferences and related records managed through our consent management system.

Analytics data (with your consent): information about how you interact with the website collected through analytics technologies when you choose to allow them.

Advertising and tracking data (with your consent): information collected through advertising network technologies when you choose to allow them.

Sources of personal information:
We collect personal information directly from you when you submit forms or request access to the marketplace.
We collect certain technical information automatically when you access the website.
We collect information through cookies and similar technologies; non-essential cookies are used only when you choose to allow them through our cookie controls.

Whether you must provide personal information:
Providing contact and sign-up information is required to receive a response to your inquiry and to obtain access to the marketplace platform. Device and technical information is required to operate and secure the website. Optional cookie-based analytics and advertising data is not required and depends on your cookie choices.

How We Use Your Data

We use personal information only for purposes connected to operating Hobby Market Pro’s marketplace platform and website. For each purpose below, we identify the legal basis we rely on (consent, contract, or legitimate interest):

To respond to your inquiries and communicate with you about your request (legal basis: contract).

To provide access to the marketplace platform and support vendor-to-vendor marketplace activity and related records (legal basis: contract).

To protect the website and marketplace platform, including monitoring for security threats, abuse, and fraud, and maintaining the integrity of our systems (legal basis: legitimate interest).

To produce aggregated statistics from technical information that do not rely on cookies or other technologies that require consent (legal basis: legitimate interest).

To collect website analytics using cookies or similar technologies, when you choose to allow analytics (legal basis: consent).

To enable advertising network technologies, including personalized advertising, when you choose to allow advertising cookies or similar technologies (legal basis: consent).

Who We Share Your Data With

Based on our website scan, we do not disclose personal information to external third-party service providers through detected third-party integrations, other than through our own internal systems.

We use our own consent management system (Trustwards) to record and manage your cookie preferences. This data is processed internally and not shared with third parties.

If you choose to allow analytics services or advertising network technologies through our cookie controls, those technologies may collect and receive information from your device and browser as part of providing those services. Where enabled, those providers process information according to their own privacy policies.

International Data Transfers

We do not have any third-party providers detected from our website scan that would require us to transfer personal information internationally as part of those providers’ services.

Our consent management system (Trustwards) is based in Spain (EU), and consent data is not transferred internationally.

How Long We Keep Your Data

Contact form submissions, account information, and vendor marketplace records are retained only as long as necessary to respond to inquiries, provide access to the marketplace, and support ongoing seller and vendor relationships, consistent with applicable recordkeeping requirements.

Cookie consent records: 10 years (to demonstrate compliance and address potential claims within legal limitation periods).

Security logs and technical records: 12 months.

Analytics data: until consent is withdrawn or according to the analytics tool retention settings.

Advertising/marketing tracking data: until consent is withdrawn.
