Marketplaces are data controllers for both buyers and sellers, making their privacy obligations more complex than single-sided platforms. You're responsible for how third-party sellers handle buyer data transacted through your platform, and you must disclose data sharing between parties, dispute resolution processes, and rating/review systems. If your website serves visitors from multiple countries, your privacy policy should reflect a globally recognized baseline of privacy best practices.

If your website serves visitors from multiple countries, your privacy policy should reflect a globally recognized baseline of privacy best practices. While no single global law exists, the principles of transparency, consent, data minimization, security, and individual rights are common across GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and most modern privacy frameworks.

Data typically collected by Marketplace businesses: buyer and seller profiles, transaction history, messaging data, payment details, reviews and ratings, ID verification data
Under Global, consumer protection laws may require you to disclose your refund terms clearly before purchase. Even where not strictly required, a transparent Refund Policy reduces chargebacks, builds customer trust, and protects you from disputes.
A Refund Policy for Marketplace should specify: the refund window, eligible and non-eligible items, the process for requesting a refund, how refunds are processed, and any restocking fees. For digital products, be explicit about access-based non-refundability.
Under Global, digital products can be non-refundable once they have been accessed or downloaded, provided users were clearly informed of this before purchase. You must obtain explicit consent acknowledging the non-refundability of digital goods.
