Lazy Lister Privacy Notice

Last Updated: June 21, 2025

Welcome to Lazy Lister! This Privacy Notice explains how Lazy Lister ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and discloses information when you use our website and services. Lazy Lister helps you streamline your product listing process by allowing you to upload photos and connect your eBay account to create intelligent product listings using artificial intelligence.

1. Information We Collect

We collect various types of information in connection with the services we provide:

  • Account Information: When you create an account, we collect information such as your name, email address, and password.
  • Photo Uploads: When you upload photos to our platform, we collect the image files and any associated metadata (e.g., date taken, device type). These photos are essential for our AI to generate product listings.
  • eBay Account Information: To provide our core service, you may choose to connect your eBay account. When you do, we access certain information from your eBay account as permitted by eBay's API and your permissions. This may include your eBay user ID, listing details, and sales history, strictly for the purpose of facilitating your listings on eBay. We do not store your eBay password.
  • Listing Data: Information generated during the listing creation process, including AI-generated descriptions, titles, and categories.
  • Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you access and use our services, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. This helps us understand how our service is used and improve it.
  • Device Information: Information about the device you use to access our services, including hardware model, operating system, and unique device identifiers.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To Provide and Maintain Our Services: This includes enabling you to upload photos, connect to eBay, and use our AI to generate product listings.
  • To Improve and Personalize Our Services: We use data, including AI processing of your uploaded photos and listing data, to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of our AI models, develop new features, and provide a more personalized experience. This may involve analyzing patterns in the data to refine our AI's ability to identify products and generate compelling descriptions.
  • To Communicate with You: We may use your email address to send you service-related announcements, updates, security alerts, and support messages.
  • For Security and Fraud Prevention: To protect our services and users from fraudulent or unauthorized activity.
  • For Analytics and Research: To monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our services.
  • To Comply with Legal Obligations: To meet our legal and regulatory requirements.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

  • With eBay: When you choose to list products on eBay through Lazy Lister, we will transmit the necessary listing data (including AI-generated content and image references) to eBay on your behalf. Your use of eBay's services will also be governed by eBay's privacy policy.
  • With Service Providers: We work with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as cloud hosting, data analytics, and customer support. These providers are obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them.
  • For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court order or government agency).
  • In Case of Business Transfer: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of our assets, your information may be shared or transferred as part of that transaction.
  • With Your Consent: We may share your information with your explicit consent or at your direction.

4. Artificial Intelligence and Your Data

Our service heavily relies on artificial intelligence to process your uploaded photos and assist in creating product listings. This means:

  • Data Processing: Your uploaded photos and associated data will be processed by AI algorithms to identify objects, generate descriptions, and suggest listing details.
  • Model Training: Anonymized and aggregated data, including derivative data from AI processing, may be used to train and improve our AI models. This data is stripped of personally identifiable information where feasible and used in a way that does not directly identify you.

5. Your Choices and Rights

You have certain rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access and Correction: You can access and update much of your account information directly through your account settings.
  • Data Portability: You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Deletion: You may request the deletion of your account and associated personal data, subject to certain legal exceptions.
  • Opt-Out of Communications: You can opt out of receiving promotional emails from us by following the unsubscribe instructions in those emails.
  • Managing eBay Connection: You can disconnect your eBay account from Lazy Lister at any time through your account settings. This will stop the flow of new data from eBay to Lazy Lister, but data already received may be retained as described in this policy.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information below.

6. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage is ever entirely secure or error-free, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

8. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

9. Changes to This Privacy Notice

We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Notice on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Notice periodically.
