Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how PrinTrade (the “Platform”) collects and processes your personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Romanian law. The data controller’s identity and contact details are on our Contact page.

1. Data we collect

  • Account data: username, email, first/last name, phone number (if provided), and a securely hashed password.
  • Content data: listings, images, reviews, reports, and messages you send through the Platform.
  • Technical data: essential cookies and session tokens needed to keep you signed in and secure the service.

2. Why we process it (legal bases)

  • To provide the service — performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
  • Security, fraud & abuse prevention, moderation — legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)).
  • Legal compliance — where we must retain or disclose data by law (Art. 6(1)(c)).

3. Passwords & security

Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. Access to the Platform uses a signed session token stored in your browser. We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data.

4. Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. Certain profile details you choose to publish (e.g. your seller username and listings) are visible to other users. Messages are visible to the participants of the conversation. We may share data with service providers acting on our behalf, or with authorities where legally required.

5. Retention

We keep personal data for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. When no longer needed, data is deleted or anonymised.

6. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectify inaccurate data.
  • Erase your data (“right to be forgotten”), subject to legal limits.
  • Restrict or object to certain processing.
  • Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Lodge a complaint with the Romanian supervisory authority (ANSPDCP) or your local DPA.

To exercise any of these rights — including a data export or data deletion request — contact us via the Contact page. We respond within the timeframes required by law.

7. Cookies

We use strictly necessary cookies for authentication, security, and to remember your language preference. These do not track you for advertising. If we introduce analytics or non-essential cookies in the future, we will request your consent beforehand.

8. Changes

We may update this Policy. Material changes will be announced on the Platform, and the “last updated” date above will change.

9. Contact
