Privacy policy

What we store

When you create an account we store your email address and the profile details you choose to add (display name, handle, bio, optional location). If you sign in with Google we store the account identifier Google provides; we never see your Google password.

If you use the vault we store the collection items you add, including quantity, condition, grading details, private notes, and any purchase price you record. If you use trades we store your listings, wishlist, offers, and trade messages. Collector-room settings store your chosen theme, headline and selected showcase entries separately from your profile publication choice.

What is public

Your full vault, purchase prices, private notes, email address, serials and private badge progress are not displayed on your public profile. If you publish your profile, your display name, handle, bio, and (optionally) location appear publicly. Items you list for trade appear on the trade board along with their condition and grade; your wishlist product choices appear beside your listings. Collectors who have not published a profile appear only as an anonymous label.

A collector showcase is off by default, even if your profile was already public. Sharing it requires both a published profile and the separate showcase setting. Only the eligible vault entries you select appear, using catalog identities and reference artwork; quantities, costs, private notes and proof are omitted. You can remove selected entries or turn sharing off in your account. Public visibility is not a verification of ownership. Your trade wishlist continues to use the trade-board rules above and is not added to your showcase.

We use a single session cookie to keep you signed in, plus short-lived cookies during sign-in flows. We run no advertising or analytics trackers.

Who else sees data

Sign-in code emails are delivered by Resend. Marketplace data shown on the site comes from eBay and StockX; nothing about your account is sent to them. We do not sell or share personal data.

You can edit or unpublish your profile at any time, remove collection items, and withdraw trade listings. To delete your account and its data or ask a privacy question, contact us at support@ghostindex.net.
