1. Introduction

Do Not Wish LLC ("Do Not Wish," "we," "our," or "us") is the data controller responsible for personal information collected through our website, mobile applications, and marketplace platform (collectively, the "Services"). Our participating brands, boutiques, and sellers are referred to as "Partners."

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, retain, disclose, transfer, and protect personal information in connection with the Services. It also describes the rights you have over your information and how to exercise them.

The Services are not directed to individuals under 13 years of age, or under 16 in jurisdictions with a higher minimum age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without verifiable parental consent.

  • Contact and identity details: name, email address, phone number, and mailing address
  • Account information: login credentials, preferences, and saved settings
  • Transaction data: items purchased or listed, order details, pricing, and return history
  • Payment information, which is processed by authorized payment processors; we do not store full card details
  • Communications you send to our customer service team

We may receive information about you from:

  • Social authentication providers such as Apple or Google when you use them to sign in
  • Analytics and advertising partners who provide audience and performance insights
  • Third-party services that help us improve personalization, recommendations, and platform experiences

2.4 Partner & Vendor Information

Where businesses, brands, boutiques, suppliers, or marketplace participants engage with the Services as Partners, we may collect business registration details, operational contacts, inventory submissions, fulfillment information, payout and billing details, account credentials, communications, and marketplace performance information.

3. How We Use Information

3.1 Marketplace Operations

We use personal information primarily to operate, maintain, and improve the marketplace and related Services. This includes facilitating transactions, supporting order fulfillment and returns, coordinating Partner operations and inventory redistribution, managing accounts, providing customer support, maintaining marketplace integrity, and supporting platform functionality.

We may also use operational and marketplace data to support inventory positioning, marketplace performance, fraud monitoring, and platform optimization.

3.2 Personalization & Analytics

We use behavioral and transactional data to surface relevant inventory, power recommendation systems, and improve marketplace experiences. We may also use third-party analytics and demographic insights to improve platform performance, inventory discovery, and user engagement.

3.3 Automated Systems

We may use automated systems, machine learning, and personalization technologies to support marketplace experiences, product recommendations, fraud prevention, and platform functionality. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice and the opportunity to object.

Sustainability & Impact Data: Aggregated and anonymized data relating to sustainability, redistribution activity, circularity, environmental impact, and emissions-related metrics may be used for operational analysis, marketplace insights, impact reporting, and ESG-related purposes. This data does not identify individual users.

3.4 Security & Trust

We use personal information to verify identities, detect and prevent fraud, and protect the safety of users, Partners, and the marketplace.

3.5 Marketing & Communications

Where you have consented or where applicable law permits, we send promotional communications about products, services, and marketplace activity. You may opt out at any time through your account preferences or the unsubscribe mechanism in any marketing message.

3.6 Legal & Compliance

We use personal information to comply with applicable laws, respond to legal process, enforce our agreements, and retain records as required.

3.7 Legal Bases for Processing

We process personal information on the basis of: (a) contractual necessity, to provide the Services you have requested; (b) legal obligation, where required by applicable law; (c) legitimate interests, to operate and improve the marketplace, prevent fraud, and communicate relevant information, balanced against your privacy rights; and (d) consent, where specifically required and revocable at any time.

Our primary legitimate interests include: operating and securing the marketplace platform; detecting and preventing fraud and abuse; improving platform performance and user experience; and sending relevant communications to existing users. A summary of our Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA) is available on request at privacy@donotwish.com.

4. Sharing & Service Providers

We do not sell your personal information for monetary compensation. We share information only as described below.

4.1 Marketplace Partners

When you transact through the marketplace, we share information with the applicable Partner as necessary to support that transaction, including fulfillment, delivery, returns, refunds, customer support, fraud prevention, tax, and legal compliance. This may include your name, delivery address, contact details, and order details. Partners are responsible for their own privacy practices with respect to information they independently process.

Partners are independently responsible for the information they collect, process, or retain outside the Services or beyond the scope of transaction fulfillment and marketplace operations. We require all Partners to agree to data handling standards as a condition of participation; however, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of Partners you transact with directly.

4.2 Service Providers

We engage service providers to support marketplace operations, such as payment processing, logistics and delivery, fraud prevention, customer service infrastructure, cloud hosting, marketing technology, and analytics. These providers access personal information only as necessary to perform their contracted functions.

4.3 Advertising Partners

With your consent or where otherwise permitted, we may share limited identifiers with advertising and social media platforms to deliver relevant advertising on our behalf. Text messaging opt-in data and mobile information will not be shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

4.4 Legal & Safety Disclosures

We may disclose personal information to law enforcement, regulators, or courts when required by law or legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Do Not Wish, our users, or others. Where permitted, we will notify you of such requests.

4.5 Corporate Transactions

In connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or asset sale, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will provide notice as required by applicable law.

4.6 Aggregated Data

We may share aggregated, anonymized data that cannot identify individual users with Partners, investors, and service providers to support marketplace research and operational planning.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember your preferences, measure performance, and support personalized experiences.

Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Services.

6. International Transfers

Do Not Wish operates globally. Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside your country of residence, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where such transfers occur, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, adequacy decisions, or contractual necessity for transaction fulfillment.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, satisfy legal and regulatory requirements, and support any disputes or enforcement actions.

As a general guide: account data is retained while your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter; transaction, billing, and operational records may be retained for up to ten years where required by applicable tax, accounting, fraud prevention, or legal obligations; marketing data is retained for up to two years from your last interaction or until you withdraw consent; and application data such as job submissions is retained for up to six months.

When data is no longer required, it is permanently deleted or irreversibly anonymized.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

  • Access – Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Correction – Request that inaccurate or incomplete information be corrected
  • Erasure – Request deletion of your information where no longer necessary or lawfully retained
  • Restriction – Request that we limit processing while we assess a correction or objection
  • Objection – Object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including for marketing
  • Portability – Receive your information in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Withdrawal of Consent – Revoke consent at any time without affecting prior processing

Residents of California, Virginia, and Texas have additional rights under applicable state law, including the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. See the US State Privacy Rights Addendum below.

To submit a rights request, contact us at privacy@donotwish.com. We respond within the timeframes required under applicable law. Identity verification may be required before we process your request.

9. How We Protect Your Information

We apply industry-standard technical and organizational safeguards to protect personal information, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, tokenization of payment credentials, regular security monitoring, and periodic penetration testing. Our infrastructure and security controls are designed and maintained in alignment with SOC 2 Type II principles; documentation of our security practices is available to enterprise Partners on request under NDA.

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach and will inform affected individuals without undue delay where required by law. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children's Privacy

The Services are not intended for individuals under 13, or under 16 in jurisdictions with a higher minimum age. Jurisdictions with a higher age threshold include EU and EEA member states under the GDPR (where member states may set the threshold between 13 and 16), the United Kingdom under the UK GDPR and Age Appropriate Design Code (13, with heightened protections up to 18), and US states including Texas and Florida that have enacted children's online safety laws establishing heightened protections for minors up to 18.

In the United States, our practices are designed to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child has provided information without appropriate consent, we will promptly delete it. Contact us at privacy@donotwish.com if you have concerns.
