Stocklink LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit or use our online platform (the “Platform”), including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through Stocklink.
When you use the Stocklink platform, we collect various types of information to support our services, ensure a safe user experience, and facilitate marketplace functionality. This includes personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, billing address, and any other contact details you provide during registration, communication, or transaction processes. We also collect account-related information including your login credentials, user preferences, and settings configured within your account.
If you create or manage listings on the platform, we collect listing information, which includes details you provide about livestock, equipment, or related services such as descriptions, pricing, images, and location data. In connection with transactions, we collect payment information that includes limited billing and transaction details. All payment processing is conducted through a secure third-party processor, and we do not store complete payment card numbers or sensitive financial data on our servers.
We also gather usage information to understand how users engage with the platform. This includes data such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and overall navigation behavior. This information is typically collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies. Additionally, we collect communication data, which may include the content of inquiries, messages, feedback, and support requests that you submit through the platform or directly to our team. This information allows us to provide effective customer support and maintain trust and transparency within the Stocklink community.
We use the information we collect to operate, support, and improve the Stocklink platform and to fulfill our obligations to users. This includes using personal and account information to create and manage user accounts, facilitate the creation and display of listings, and support user-specific preferences. We process transaction-related data to complete purchases, issue confirmations, track order status, and communicate updates related to user activity.
User information is also used to support interactions between buyers and sellers. This includes enabling direct messaging and ensuring a smooth exchange of information during the negotiation, inquiry, or sale process. We analyze usage and system data to monitor platform performance, resolve technical issues, and enhance the overall user experience through design improvements, feature updates, and operational insights.
Additionally, we may use information to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations, including recordkeeping, fraud prevention, and law enforcement requests. Finally, we use all categories of collected data as necessary to safeguard the integrity and security of the platform, including preventing unauthorized access, monitoring for suspicious activity, and protecting against misuse or violations of our Terms and Conditions.
We may share the information you provide with third parties in limited circumstances to operate the Stocklink platform effectively and in accordance with applicable law. Information that you voluntarily include in your listings, such as descriptions, location details, pricing, or user contact information, may be visible to other users of the platform and accessible as part of the public-facing marketplace.
We also share information with trusted service providers who assist us in delivering core aspects of the platform. These third-party vendors may provide services such as website and data hosting, analytics, payment processing, customer support, and communications infrastructure. Each vendor is only given access to the information necessary to perform their specific function and is contractually obligated to handle your data in a secure and confidential manner.
In certain situations, we may disclose information when required to do so by law, regulation, or legal process. This includes responding to lawful requests from public authorities, complying with court orders, or protecting the rights, safety, and security of users, our team, or the platform itself.
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
We may use cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies to enhance your experience on the Stocklink platform. These tools help us remember your preferences, customize content, and gather aggregated usage statistics that allow us to better understand how users interact with the platform. By analyzing this data, we can improve functionality, identify technical issues, and offer a more seamless and efficient user experience.
You have the ability to manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, please be aware that certain features of the platform may not operate correctly or may become unavailable if cookies are disabled. Your continued use of the platform constitutes your consent to our use of these technologies in accordance with this policy.
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the personal information we collect and maintain. These measures are designed to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your data and to preserve the confidentiality and integrity of the platform. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to secure your information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, including your username and password. We strongly recommend that you choose a strong password, avoid sharing your login information with others, and notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account.
As a user of the Stocklink platform, you have certain rights and choices regarding the personal information we collect and maintain. You may review and update your account information at any time by accessing your account settings. This includes modifying contact details, adjusting preferences, and managing your profile information.
You may also request the deletion of your account and associated personal data. Please note that we may be required to retain certain information for legal, regulatory, or operational purposes, including the fulfillment of outstanding obligations or the resolution of disputes.
If you no longer wish to receive promotional communications from us, you may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in our emails or by contacting us directly. Please be aware that even if you opt out of marketing emails, we may still send you service-related communications regarding your account or transactions.
The Stocklink platform is intended for use by individuals aged 13 and older. Users who are at least 13 years old may create a profile to access educational, community, and content-based features of the platform. However, use of the marketplace for transactional purposes, including creating listings, making offers, or completing purchases, is reserved for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. This restriction exists because entering into agreements to buy or sell goods may involve legal obligations that minors are generally not permitted to assume under applicable contract law.
We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal information from individuals under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have received personal information from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information promptly.
If you believe that a child under 13 may have provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can address the matter appropriately.
The Stocklink platform may include links to or integrations with third-party websites, services, or applications that are not operated or controlled by us. These third-party services may have their own privacy policies and data collection practices that differ from ours. We do not assume responsibility for the content, practices, or privacy standards of these external entities. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you choose to engage with through our platform to understand how your information may be collected and used by them.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the functionality of the Stocklink platform. When we make material changes to the policy, we will notify users by posting the updated version on the platform and may also provide notice through other appropriate channels, such as email or platform notifications. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about how we collect, use, and protect your information. Your continued use of the platform after any updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
