Privacy Policy

Narchie’s approach to privacy

The Narchie app (“App”) and website (“Site”) are run by Narchie Limited a company established in England (company number 13242643) with its registered offices at Unit B, The Brewery Bells Yew Green Road, Bells Yew Green, Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex, England, TN3 9BD (“Narchie”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy.

Narchie provides a social media-inspired peer-to-peer marketplace which uses artificial intelligence to suggest relevant sellers and items and to display items to the most relevant potential buyers based on user preferences and other information submitted to it, which you can access via the App and through our website (“Service”). You can search for items, log-in to your profile and view other profiles (each shop has a unique and public URL) via the website. The above information will also be visible to search engines, including but not limited to the photos that you post. When you use our Site or Service we will collect and process certain information about you. This Privacy Policy sets out how Narchie collects, uses and shares information that identifies you or is associated with you (“personal information”). Our main goal in collecting such data is to provide you with a safe, efficient and personalised experience, and we will only collect information relating to you that we deem necessary for this purpose.

By setting up an account with us or using and accessing the Site or Service, you consent to the use of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. You should also be aware that we use cookies to store and access information whilst providing the Site and Service. You can find out more about our use of cookies in our Cookie Policy.

We have appointed a Data Protection Officer who is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this Privacy Policy.

Personal information we collect about you and how we use it

We collect information from you when you voluntarily submit it to us and when you use the Site and Service. This can include information you provide when you register to use the Service, complete a form, list an item, subscribe to our mailing lists or other marketing communications or take an action on the Service (such as when you comment on or like an item, perform a search, communicate with other users of the Service, or engage in a transaction).

We also collect information about the pages you look at on our Site and Service and/or the device you use to access the Site and Service.

The list below sets out categories of personal information we collect about you and how we use that information. Unless we specifically state below that we are relying on your consent, our legitimate interests or a legal obligation to process your personal information, the lawful basis we are relying on to process your personal information is to perform a contract with you. This contract is governed by our Terms of Service. We will only rely on legitimate interests to process your personal information where your interests and fundamental rights do not override our interests.

Where we state below that we use your information to send you marketing communications, we may do so on the basis it is in our legitimate interests (where you are an account holder and we are informing you about our products and services), where we provide you with an opt-out option, or because you have consented to receiving such marketing communications from us. We will only send you marketing communications in accordance with your marketing preferences.

Contact and identity details: When you open an account with us you will be asked to provide us with your contact information such as your name, your email address, your telephone number and addresses associated with your account. We will use your contact details so that we can communicate with you directly about the products you purchase and that you sell through the Service and about queries, issues or concerns you or other users have and to send you marketing communications. As a necessary part of participating in the Service, you will also share your contact details with any buyer or seller you deal with through the Service. We may also ask you to provide copies of identification documents which we will also use along with other contact information you provide for the legitimate interests of verifying your details and helping prevent fraudulent access to the Service or use of your account.

Comments and opinions: When you contact us directly, e.g. by email, phone, post or by completing an online form we will record your comments and opinions. We will also record comments and opinions you express when responding to surveys, entering competitions, taking part in promotions we run or that you post on our community boards or other message areas. We will use your comments and opinions in the legitimate interests of addressing your queries, issues and concerns and improving our products and services. We will also use comments and opinions you express when posting on our community boards or other message areas, responding to surveys, entering competitions or taking part in other promotions, to determine products and services that may be of interest to you and to send you marketing communications.

In-app messages: If you choose to use our in-app messaging functionality to message other users of the Service, we may access and review your messages to assist in the fulfilment of orders made through the Service, to respond to any query, issue, concern or dispute users raise and to resolve such disputes and if we have reason to believe the messages may contain evidence that you have breached our Terms of Service.

Payment and transaction information: We keep records of the products you buy, sell or exchange though the Service and the payment method you use for the transaction. We will use payment and transaction information to assist in the payment process for any product you purchase through the Service. We will use your payment and transaction information and history to determine products and services that may be of interest to you and send you marketing. We will provide your contact details to the seller of any item you purchase including your username and the name, delivery address, email address and phone number you provide at the checkout.

In order to transfer funds and process refunds in connection with a transaction via Stripe (where you have been offered this option and choose to use Stripe), you agree to provide Narchie accurate and complete information about you and your Narchie account. By using the payment services provide by Stripe, you hereby authorize Narchie to pass to Stripe any information and payment instructions you provide (which may include name, email address, unique customer identifier, order ID, bank account details, payment card details, card expiration date, CVC code, date/time/amount of transaction, merchant name/ID and location) to the extent required to complete payments via the Service. In addition, where you elect to use Stripe, limited members of our support and moderation team may have access to your name, date of birth, address, and last 4 digits of the relevant bank card, in order to process and support transactions and moderate refunds. Stripe may collect information about your use of Stripe, including information collected by way of cookies or other similar means, to the extent this is necessary to process the transactions or to satisfy security requirements.

Information provided by social networks you connect or link to our Service: If you choose to connect an account on a social network, such as Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to your Narchie account you are consenting to us collecting personal information from the social network in accordance with your privacy settings on that social network. The connected social network may provide us with information such as your name, Facebook id, Twitter handle, profile picture, gender, username, user ID, age or age range, language, country, friends list, follower list and any other information you have agreed it can share. We will use the personal information provided to help create a public profile for you on our Service and, where we provide the functionality, we will also use the information provided to assist you in sharing your experiences on our Service with your friends, followers or contacts on the connected social network. We may also use the connection between the social network and our Service to provide you with updates on the social network that are relevant to any account you have with us or promotion you are taking part in. Such updates will only be provided with your consent. We will not post to your social network or to your friends, followers or contacts without your consent.

Your relationships with other users: We may collect information regarding other users that you are following on our Service which we use to prioritise items displayed to you in your search results or your timeline based on Narchie’s internal algorithm and to determine other products and services that may be of interest to you. We also store information regarding any blocked or banned relationships associated with your account in the legitimate interests of enforcing our Terms of Service and managing user preferences regarding who they wish to communicate with on our Service.

Typically, the information we collect about how you use or connect to our Service is associated with your device and not you as a named individual. However, if you are logged into a registered account you have with us this information may also be associated with you directly.

We use information about your device in order to optimise the presentation and functioning of our Service to you on your device and in the legitimate interests of ensuring that banned users are not able to access the Service by creating a new account.

Information about your location: Where you give us consent, we will collect and use information about your location, sometimes together with other personal information, to provide features of the Service that are relevant to you and your location.

If you change your mind about allowing us to use information about your location in the future, you can update your preferences in your device settings.

Information provided by other users: Sometimes, other users of our Service provide information that is associated with you. Other users can provide information that is associated with you such as comments, feedback and likes relating to your items and messages they send to you. Other users may also share information relating to an item they have bought from you on the Service on other social media channels which link to the Service, but this will not result in any information that was not already public, being made public. Where users of our Service want to invite you to use our Service or to share information with you about our services we will use personal information that they provide about you to assist them in doing this; we will only do this where they indicate that you have provided your consent for them to communicate with you in this way.

All personal information: We will use all the personal information we collect to monitor and improve our Service, App and Site and our procedures and processes.

It may also be processed by staff (who work for us or for one of our suppliers) and other users of the Service operating outside the EEA, in order to fulfil a purchase, process payment details and provide support and verification services. Some of these jurisdictions offer differing levels of protection in respect of personal information and may, in certain instances, be less protective than the UK. However the transfer of your data to other countries in line with this Privacy Policy, shall only be to countries in respect of which an adequacy decision has been issued by the European Commission, or where the entity is bound an appropriate confidentiality and data transfer agreement as deemed adequate by the European Commission (details of which we are happy to share with you on request as per the “Contacting Us” section below). Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they have agreed to the Standard Contractual Clauses, as approved by the European Commission, which requires them to provide similar protection to personal information shared between Europe and the US. If we collect your personal information in Australia, it may also be transferred to and stored in countries outside Australia including to our affiliates and our third party service providers who are located in countries including the UK, USA, and India. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and any relevant privacy laws.

Your Rights

Right to access your information: You are entitled to see the information held about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it, and we shall comply with our obligations under applicable data protection legislation in relation to any request by you. We may charge you a reasonable fee or refuse to comply with your request if it is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month (once we have been able to verify your identity). Occasionally it may take us longer than this if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests.

Right to request correction of your information: You may ask us to make any necessary changes to ensure that the data we hold about you is accurate and kept up to date. Please keep us informed if your personal information changes during your relationship with us.

Right to request erasure of your information: In certain circumstances you may also ask us to erase personal information relating to you. We may not always be able to comply with your request for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request. You can exercise your right to delete certain personal information about you by closing your account with us, although we may need to keep some information about you in accordance with the “Storing and transferring your personal information” section above.

Right to object to processing: You may object to us processing your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest where you believe it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. We will consider any such objection, however in some cases we may demonstrate that our legitimate grounds override your rights and freedoms. You may also object to us processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes (see “Your Marketing Preferences” above for further information about how to do this).

Right to restriction of processing: You may ask us to suspend the processing of your personal information in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Right to request the transfer of your information: You have the right to request a transfer of certain of your personal information to you or a third party of your choice, which we will provide in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

Right to withdraw consent: Where we are relying on your consent to process your personal information you may withdraw this consent at any time (which you can do by changing the settings in your mobile device in relation to location data or by changing the privacy settings on your social networks in relation to information we collect from those networks).

Right to opt-out of behavioural analytics: If you do not want us to conduct behavioural analytics for the purposes of Narchie’s internal algorithm used to display relevant sellers and items to you or to display your items to the most relevant potential buyers, you must close your Narchie account and cease using our Service. This is because it is essential to Narchie to suggest the right items and sellers to you and to display your items to the right buyers which we can only do by learning about your tastes and preferences and the types of products you list.

To exercise any of the above rights, or if you have any questions relating to your rights, please contact us by using the details set out in the “Contacting us” section below. We may need to request specific information from you when you exercise your rights to confirm your identity and to speed up our response. We may not be able to fulfill your request if we are not able to identify you.

Most of the personal information we hold about you is either available directly from viewing your account and looking back over your own activities or is available from the social networks that you have connected to our Service. If you think that there is other personal information which you think we hold, please contact us using the contact details set out in the “Contacting us” section below. Please provide as much information as you can about the personal information you are looking for and we will be happy to try and help you find it.

Links to third party sites

California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), effective January 1, 2020, gives California consumers enhanced rights with respect to their personal information that is collected by businesses. First, California consumers may opt out of having their personal information sold to other persons or parties. Second, they have a right to know:

1. What specific pieces of information a business has about the consumer;

2. Categories of personal information it has collected about the consumer;

3. Categories of sources from which the personal information is collected;

4. Categories of personal information that the business sold or disclosed for a business purpose about the consumer;

5. Categories of third parties to whom the personal information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose; and

6. The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information.

Narchie is a covered business under the CCPA as it collects and processes the personal information of California consumers. This Privacy Policy provides the required notices to California consumers.

Narchie does not presently sell any personal information to third parties for any purpose.

To make a “request to know” or request to delete your personal information, send us an e-mail at support@narchie.com. (Please put either “Request to Know” or “Request to Delete” in the subject heading of your email.) We will honour these requests for US individuals whether or not you would qualify as a California consumer under the CCPA.

We will confirm receipt of your request within 10 days along with a description of what steps we will take to verify and respond. We must provide the requested information or delete your personal information within 45 days of receipt of your request but can use an additional 45 days, but we must let you know the additional time is needed.

When contacting us, we may ask you to provide certain, limited personal information, such as your name, email address and/or username to verify your request and to match with our records and systems. This is to protect against fraud. We will not retain this personal information or use it for any other purpose. And we need to search our records and systems only for the preceding 12 months.

Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.

Notice to you

If we need to provide you with information about something, whether for legal, marketing or other business related purposes, we will select what we believe is the best way to get in contact with you. We will usually do this through email, or by placing a notice on the Service. The fact that we may send notices to you will not stop you from being able to opt out of certain types of contact as described in this Privacy Policy.
