Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This Privacy Policy explains how 676trades.org (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects information
when you use our website and services (the “Service”).
1) Information we collect
- Account information: email address and password hash (we do not store your plaintext password).
- Profile information you choose to provide: profile text, preferences, and any optional details you add.
- Content you submit: messages and group posts (used to operate the Service and enforce safety rules).
- Usage and security logs: basic request data such as IP address, timestamps, device/browser metadata, and diagnostics (for security and abuse prevention).
2) What we do NOT collect
- We do not intentionally collect government ID, bank details, or payment card details (unless we later add a third-party payment system).
- We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
3) How we use your information
- To create and manage your account and provide platform features (profiles, groups, messaging).
- To keep the community safe (detect abuse, spam, harassment, scams).
- To provide support and troubleshoot technical issues.
- To improve the Service (feature improvements and reliability).
4) Messages and moderation
The Service may store messages and group posts so users can access them, and so we can enforce
Community Guidelines when reports are made. We do not publish private messages publicly.
5) Cookies / local storage
The Service may use browser storage (such as localStorage or sessionStorage) to keep you signed in.
You can clear your browser data to remove this.
6) Sharing information
We may share information only when necessary:
- With infrastructure providers used to host and operate the Service (e.g., hosting, email delivery).
- When required by law, or to protect the rights and safety of users and the platform.
7) Data retention
We keep data as long as needed to provide the Service, keep the community safe, comply with legal obligations,
resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. You may request deletion where applicable (subject to legal and safety requirements).
8) Security
We use reasonable measures to protect your data, but no online system is 100% secure.
Please use a strong password and do not share your login details.
9) International users
You may access the Service from different countries. Your data may be processed in the regions where our service providers operate.
By using the Service, you consent to this processing where permitted by law.
