1. Introduction
Got Barreled (“we,” “our,” or “the Platform”) values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you access or use our website, marketplace, and related services.
2. Information We Collect
- Account Information: Name, email, and login credentials.
- Seller Payout Information: To facilitate payouts to Sellers, we collect necessary financial details. This may include bank account details (AU or International), Wise account information, or e-wallet details (e.g., phone number, name, country). This data is encrypted at rest.
- Buyer Payment Information: We process incoming payments from Buyers via our third-party payment processor (e.g., Stripe). We do not store your full credit card details on our servers.
- Transaction Data: Purchases, sales, pricing, and a history of payouts.
- Content: Media you upload or purchase, plus metadata.
- Technical Data: IP address, device, browser type, and usage logs.
- Cookies & Analytics: Information collected through cookies and third-party analytics tools.
3. How We Use Your Information
- Provide and improve the Platform and its features.
- Facilitate secure payments from Buyers via our payment processor (Stripe).
- Process and facilitate payouts to Sellers using their provided and encrypted Payout Information (e.g., via Wise).
- Verify accounts and prevent fraud or misuse.
- Send updates, service notifications, and promotional communications (opt-out available).
- Comply with legal obligations, enforce our Terms of Use, and conduct internal audits.
4. How We Share Your Information
- Service Providers: Our payment processor (Stripe), payout processor (Wise), cloud hosting providers (e.g., AWS), analytics tools, and email services. We share information only as necessary to perform their functions.
- Legal Compliance: To comply with laws, court orders, or government requests.
- Business Transfers: In case of merger, acquisition, or asset sale.
We never sell your personal data to third parties.
5. Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies to provide core functionality, analyze traffic, and personalize content. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not work properly.
6. Data Retention & Deletion
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. When you request account deletion, we follow a secure deletion process to overwrite and permanently remove your sensitive personal data in a manner compliant with data protection regulations.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (e.g. GDPR, CCPA), you may have the right to:
- Access and obtain a copy of your data.
- Request correction or deletion of your data.
- Object to or restrict data processing.
- Withdraw consent for marketing communications.
- Request data portability (transfer to another service).
To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@gotbarreled.com.
8. Children’s Privacy
Got Barreled does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such data, we will promptly delete it. Parents who believe their child has used the Platform should contact us immediately.
9. Data Security
We are committed to protecting your data. We implement robust technical and organizational measures, including:
- Encryption: Sensitive Seller Payout Information is encrypted at rest using strong cryptographic standards (e.g., AES-256).
- Access Control: We enforce strict access controls, separating user and administrative privileges to ensure only authorized personnel can access sensitive data for legitimate purposes (like processing payouts).
- Data Masking: We use data masking to obscure sensitive payout information in our user interface, so you (and our staff) never see the full, unencrypted details.
- Logging: We maintain access logs for sensitive data to support auditing and compliance.
However, no system is 100% secure. We disclaim liability for breaches beyond our reasonable control (e.g., sophisticated third-party hacks, internet outages).
10. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred and processed outside your country of residence, including in Australia, the EU, and the United States. By using Got Barreled, you consent to such transfers, subject to applicable safeguards.
11. Third-Party Services
Our Platform relies on third-party services (e.g. Stripe, Wise, AWS). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before using our services.
12. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of significant changes by posting an updated version on this page. Continued use of the Platform after changes indicates acceptance.
