This Privacy Policy describes how Group Payless LLC (“Group Payless,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares personal information in connection with Gpbid (also referred to as GPbid) websites, mobile apps, and related services (together, the “Services”).

Last updated: September 13, 2026

Group Payless LLC provides a marketplace that helps buyers and sellers connect, buy, and sell. This policy explains our privacy practices and your choices. For questions or privacy requests, see Contact us.

1. Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we process when providing the Services, including our websites, mobile applications, social media pages, newsletters, and other online or offline offerings.

Controller. Group Payless LLC, a United States company, is generally the controller of your personal information when you use our Services. If you live in the USA, Group Payless LLC provides the Services to you and acts as the controller, subject to any region-specific terms that may apply.

2. Personal information we collect

The categories we collect depend on how you use the Services and on applicable law. We collect information you provide, information collected automatically, and information from other sources.

2.1 Information you provide

  • Account data — Name, email, postal address, phone number, and other contact details needed to create or use a Gpbid account. Optional profile details (photo, bio) may also be added.
  • Credentials — Passwords and similar authentication information for account access.
  • Identity verification — Government ID images and related data for seller/verified-buyer checks, processed with partners such as Stripe (Stripe Privacy Policy).
  • Payment and purchase data — Bid, purchase, and sale details, billing address, and payment method metadata. Card numbers are processed by Stripe; we do not store full payment card numbers entered through the Services.
  • Additional seller identity data — Tax ID (or local equivalent), date of birth, ID documents, and other seller onboarding information.

  • Streaming / clipping — We may record livestream sessions (image and voice) for a limited time. Hosts and viewers may create clips that include image and voice and share them on Gpbid or elsewhere.
  • Local pickup — Postal address or zip/postal code to estimate distance. If you allow local pickup as a seller, your zip/postal code may be public and your address may be shared with buyers who choose that option.
  • Events & business development — Information from conferences, trade shows, and potential business contacts.
  • Job applications — Application materials (CV, work history, etc.) if you apply for a role.
  • Other information — Any other personal information you choose to share with us.

2.2 Information collected automatically

  • Device data — IP address, device/browser details, identifiers, carrier, approximate location derived from IP, and similar technical data.
  • Usage data — Pages viewed, links clicked, features used, timing, watchlists, follows, searches, and other activity linked to your account where applicable.

We may collect this information directly or through cookies and similar technologies. See Cookies and other technologies.

2.3 Information from other sources

  • Authentication partners — If you sign in with Google, Apple, Facebook, or similar, we receive information you authorize those providers to share.
  • Public sources & social networks — Publicly available data, and data you allow social networks to share when you connect or share content.
  • Payment & fulfillment partners — Payment confirmations and delivery-related details.
  • Advertising / marketing partners — Interest inferences and identifiers (e.g., hashed email, advertising IDs, cookies) used to measure and improve marketing relevance.

3. Cookies and other technologies

We and certain partners may use cookies, pixel tags/web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies to operate, secure, measure, and improve the Services, and (where allowed) to deliver relevant advertising.

  • Operationally necessary — Core functionality, security, and fraud prevention.
  • Performance — Analytics to understand how the Services are used.
  • Functionality — Preferences, sign-in state, and enhanced features.
  • Advertising / targeting — Interest-based or personalized ads on or off our Services, where permitted.

Analytics and platform partners may include Google Analytics, AppsFlyer, and Meta/Facebook tools. Social buttons (e.g., Instagram, TikTok, X/Twitter, Facebook) may collect IP address and page data according to those companies’ policies. See Your privacy choices and rights for opt-out options.

7. Security

We use physical, technical, and administrative safeguards and internal policies to protect personal information. No system is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security of networks or systems we or our providers operate. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for unauthorized disclosure.

If we learn of a breach affecting you, we may notify you electronically (site notice, mail, or email) as appropriate.

8. International transfers

Information may be processed and stored in the United States and other countries that may have different data-protection laws than your home country. We apply the protections described in this policy regardless of where processing occurs. We may disclose information in response to lawful government requests. Group Payless LLC is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

Privacy inquiries related to international transfer frameworks may be sent to cs.gpbid@gmail.com. Unresolved complaints may, in certain circumstances, be eligible for binding arbitration mechanisms provided under applicable frameworks.

9. Retention

We keep personal information while we have an ongoing legitimate business need (for example, to provide the Services or meet legal, tax, or accounting requirements). Retention periods consider sensitivity, risk, purposes, alternatives, and legal requirements. When no longer needed, we delete or anonymize information, or securely isolate it until deletion is possible (e.g., backups).

10. Supplemental notice for California residents

This section applies to personal information subject to the CCPA/CPRA.

  • Sources, purposes, and disclosures are described in the sections above.
  • We “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising about Gpbid products/services. We do not “sell” personal information as we understand that term under the CCPA.
  • California residents may opt out of “sale”/“sharing” via any “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link we provide on the Services.
  • We do not have actual knowledge of selling or sharing personal information of minors under 16 for cross-context behavioral advertising.
  • Sensitive personal information is used for security, fraud resistance, limited identity verification, and purposes that do not infer characteristics about you.
  • We will not discriminate against you for exercising CCPA rights.
  • Authorized agents and verification steps apply as described under rights above.
  • Shine the Light and minor content-removal rights may apply as provided by California law.

Referral or similar incentive programs are voluntary; value depends on how you and referred users use the Services.

We do not currently sell personal information as defined in Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 603A. To request that we not sell your information in the future, email cs.gpbid@gmail.com with subject “Nevada Do Not Sell Request,” your name, and the email on your account.

12. Children’s information

The Services are not directed to children under 13 (or other age required by local law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. You must be at least 18 to create an account. Parents or guardians who believe a child provided information may contact us; we will delete information and close the account unless we must retain it by law.

13. Other provisions

Third-party sites/apps. Links to third parties are not controlled by us. Their privacy practices are their own; sharing information with them is at your risk.

Changes. We may update this policy. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date and post the new policy (and provide other notice if required by law). Please review this page periodically.
