Introduction and General Terms
Browse Bazaar is committed to safeguarding your personal information. Whenever you provide such information, we are legally obliged to use it in line with all applicable laws concerning the protection of personal information. No website can be completely secure; if you have any concerns that your Browse Bazaar account could have been compromised (e.g., someone could have discovered your password), please contact us immediately. Browse Bazaar websites may contain hyperlinks to websites owned and operated by third parties. These third-party websites should have their own privacy policies and are also likely to use cookies, and we therefore urge you to review them. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for the privacy practices of such third-party websites, and your use of such websites is at your own risk.
Who Are We?
We are a US-based supply chain management company with offices in China and the US.
What Information Will Browse Bazaar Collect About Me?
When you participate in, access, or sign up for any of the Browse Bazaar online and app content, we may receive personal information about you. This can include information such as your business name, name, email address, postal address, telephone or mobile number, bank account details, gender, as well as information about your use of our services (such as what you view and items you have added to your basket when signed in to your Browse Bazaar account). We may also require additional information to provide personalized services, for which we may ask your permission to review third-party data about you, such as your social media handles, to get to know you better and provide more effective personalization. We collect information about how you use our apps and websites, and the device(s) you use to access the services. This includes collecting unique online identifiers such as IP addresses, which can uniquely identify a specific computer or other network device on the internet.
How Will Browse Bazaar Use the Information It Collects About Me?
We may use your personal information for various purposes, including the following:
- To provide our services, activities, or online content, to provide you with information about them, and to deal with your requests and inquiries.
- To provide you with the most user-friendly online navigation experience.
- For “service administration purposes,” which means we may contact you for reasons related to the service, activity, or online content you have signed up for, such as to provide password reminders, notify you of service interruptions for maintenance, update you on changes to our Privacy and Cookies Policy or Conditions of Use, notify you if your Browse Bazaar account has become dormant, and ask if you would like to use it again before we close it.
- To personalize services, we may analyze the information you supply and your activity on our (and other) services to offer more relevant, tailored services. For example, we could use your viewing history to provide personalized recommendations. If you are signed in or subscribed to email newsletters, you will receive a personalized service. If you do not wish to receive these services, you can unsubscribe from email newsletters.
- We may also show you relevant advertising on third-party sites.
- To contact you about a submission you have made, including any content you provide.

- To use and disclose information in aggregate (so that no individuals are identified) for marketing and strategic development purposes.
When Will Browse Bazaar Contact Me?
We may contact you:
- In relation to any service or online content you have signed up for to ensure that we can deliver the services to you, e.g., to verify your email or phone number when you sign up for an account, help you reset your password, or check if you still want to use the service (if your account is dormant).
- In relation to your orders and/or shipping quotes, delivering product research, liquidation service, or fulfillment service.

We will never contact you to ask for your Browse Bazaar account password or other login information. Please be cautious if you receive any emails or calls from people asking for this information and claiming to be from Browse Bazaar.
Will I Be Contacted for Marketing Purposes?
Browse Bazaar may send you marketing emails or messages or contact you on our platforms to notify you of information that we deem may be of value to you. We may personalize the message content based on any information you have provided to us and your use of our platforms. We may use information we hold about you to show you relevant advertising on third-party sites (e.g., Facebook, Google, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, and Twitter). This could involve showing you an advertising message where we know you have a Browse Bazaar account and have used our services. If you do not want to be shown targeted advertising messages from Browse Bazaar, some third-party sites allow you to request not to see messages from specific advertisers on that site in the future. If you want to stop all personalized services from us, including targeted advertising messages on third-party sites, you can visit the Your Account section and update your preferences there.
Will Browse Bazaar Share My Personal Information with Anyone Else?
We will keep your information within Browse Bazaar except where disclosure is required or permitted by law (for example, to government bodies and law enforcement agencies) or as described in this section and section 9. Generally, we will use your information within Browse Bazaar and will only share it outside Browse Bazaar where you have requested it or given your consent. However, we may share data with third-party sites (e.g., Facebook, Google, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, and Twitter) with appropriate security measures to show you relevant advertising on third-party sites, as set out in section 6. Sometimes Browse Bazaar uses third parties to process your information on our behalf, for example, to provide services or analysis.
Offensive or Inappropriate Content on Browse Bazaar Websites
If you post or send offensive, inappropriate, or objectionable content anywhere on our websites or otherwise engage in any disruptive behavior on any Browse Bazaar service, we may use your personal information to stop such behavior. Where we reasonably believe that you are or may be in breach of any applicable laws (e.g., because content you have posted may be defamatory), we may use your personal information to inform relevant third parties such as your employer, school, email/internet provider, or law enforcement agencies about the content and your behavior.
What If I Am a User Aged Under 18?
If you are aged 18 or under, please get your parent/guardian’s permission before you provide any personal information to us.
How Long Will Browse Bazaar Keep My Information?
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us.
Can I Delete My Data?
The law requires us to keep and maintain sales records that have been made and information relating to customers who have used our service. It is therefore not possible to delete your account; however, you may deactivate your account. By deactivating your account, you will no longer be able to log in and use our services. If you would like to deactivate your account, you will need to request this by emailing our customer service team.

We will need two copies of forms of identification, which can be:

A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier, sent to your computer, tablet, or mobile phone (all referred to here as a “device”) web browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your web browser if your browser’s preferences allow it. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website to track online traffic flows.

On the Browse Bazaar websites, cookies record information about your online preferences and allow us to tailor our websites to your interests. During any visit to the Browse Bazaar website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.

We do not control the dissemination of these cookies, and you should check the relevant third party’s website for more information. If you continue without changing your settings, we’ll assume that you are happy to receive all cookies on the Browse Bazaar website.
