Privacy Policy
Effective August 28, 2026
1. Scope
This policy describes how Brocur ("we") collects, uses, and shares personal information when you use the Brocur app and website. Brocur is available only to invited members in the United States, and only to individuals 18 or older.
2. Information we collect
- Account information: name, email address, phone number, and the group membership through which you were invited.
- Listing and transaction information: item photos and descriptions, prices, pickup locations and times, and purchase and pickup confirmations.
- Payment information: collected and processed by Stripe. Brocur does not store full payment card numbers. Sellers additionally provide identity and bank information directly to Stripe to receive payouts.
- Device and usage information: log data, device identifiers, and app usage information used to operate and secure the service.
3. How we use information
We use personal information to operate the marketplace: to authenticate members, display listings, process purchases and pickups through Stripe, calculate and remit sales tax, provide customer support, resolve transaction issues and payment disputes, maintain the integrity and safety of the platform, comply with law, and improve the service.
4. How information is shared
- With your transaction counterparty: when a purchase is made, the Buyer and Seller are shown the information needed to complete the pickup, including names, the pickup location, and the confirmed time.
- With Stripe: to process payments, verify Seller identity, pay out Sellers, and handle payment disputes. Stripe processes this information under its own privacy policy.
- With service providers who host and support the platform under contractual confidentiality obligations.
- For legal reasons: to comply with law, enforce our Terms, or protect the rights, safety, and property of Brocur and its members.
Brocur does not sell personal information and does not share it with third parties for their own advertising.
5. Retention
We retain account and transaction records for as long as your account is active and as needed for legal, tax, accounting, and dispute-resolution purposes, then delete or de-identify them.
6. Your choices and rights
You may access and update your account information in the app, and may request a copy or deletion of your personal information by contacting websitecontact@brocur.net. Depending on your state of residence, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy law; we honor verified requests as required.
7. Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information, including encryption in transit. Payment card data is handled by Stripe in accordance with PCI-DSS.
