Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how AP Saleroom uses any personal data we collect from you when you use our website. If your questions are not fully answered by the information below, please contact us at info@apsaleroom.com.

1. Why Does AP Saleroom Collect Personal Data?

We collect data to provide you with our products and services. Because each service has different requirements, the specific personal data we need—and its intended use—may vary depending on your interaction with us.

2. Personal Data We Collect

This includes information you provide by filling out forms on our site or by corresponding with us via email, phone, or otherwise. This occurs when you:

• Register to use our site.
• Register to bid or sell.
• Report a problem with our website.

The information may include your name, address, email address, phone number, financial information, and identification photography.

3. Who Has Access to Your Data?

The personal data we collect will be used exclusively within AP Saleroom. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.

4. Data Retention: How Long We Keep Your Information

• Service Provision: We retain your data for the duration of the period in which we provide services to you.
• Transaction Records: We may keep records of transactions for up to ten years (plus the current year) to resolve potential disputes or complaints.
• Legal Compliance: We will retain other data if required to do so by law.

5. Managing Your Personal Data

We aim to give you full control over your information.

• Updates: You can update your information at any time by contacting us.
• Access Requests: You may request details of all personal information we hold about you. Contact us via the methods listed below, and we will provide the necessary application form.
• Right to Erasure: You have the right to request that your data be deleted or no longer processed, provided it is not required for legal or regulatory reasons.

6. Keeping Your Data Secure

AP Saleroom takes security very seriously. We have implemented technology and security policies to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or destruction. While we take every reasonable step to protect your information, no data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. Please note that we are not liable for security breaches unless they result from our negligence.

7. How We Use Cookies

To improve your experience, we use “cookies”—a standard tool that remembers your preferences.

• Preferences: You can refuse cookies via your browser settings, though this may limit website functionality.
• Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic. This service transmits data to Google servers but does not identify individual users. By using this site, you consent to Google processing this data as outlined in their Privacy Policy. You can opt out by disabling cookies or JavaScript.
• Social Media: Our site interfaces with platforms like Facebook and Instagram. If you “like” or “share” content, please review the privacy policy of the respective social media service.

8. Your Right to Complain

If you have concerns about how we process your data, please contact us directly so we can resolve the issue. Alternatively, you have the right to lodge a formal complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
