We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the Site. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited, time on site and general location, using cookies and similar technologies. You can learn how Google uses this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Advertising

The Site displays ads served by third parties, including Google.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other websites.
Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at adssettings.google.com.
You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices or optout.networkadvertising.org.

Affiliate links

Some links on the Site are affiliate links, including links through the eBay Partner Network. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The retailer, such as eBay, may use cookies to track the referral, under its own privacy policy.

How we share information

We share information only:

with service providers that help us run the Site, such as web hosting, analytics, advertising and caching services, who use it to provide services to us;
with advertising and affiliate partners, as described above;
publicly, for content you choose to submit for publication, such as listings, comments and ratings;

in a business transfer, such as a merger, sale or reorganization of Ripheadz LLC.

Third-party websites

The Site links to other websites, including manufacturers, retailers, marketplaces, breakers and social media. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their privacy policies before sharing information with them.

Data retention

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above:

Published listings and comments remain until removed.

You can ask us to access, correct or delete personal information you’ve submitted, such as a listing or comment, by emailing us.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state privacy laws. These can include the right to know what personal information we’ve collected, to request deletion or correction, and to opt out of targeted advertising. To make a request, email us. We will respond as required by applicable law and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send “Do Not Track” signals. There is no common standard for responding to them, so the Site does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.

Children’s privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect information. However, no website or internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when they are posted on this page, with a new “Last updated” date.
