Privacy Policy

Overview

Marketplace Manager is a native iOS app that helps you create, manage, and share product listings for online marketplaces. Your privacy is important to us.

Subscription

Marketplace Manager offers an auto-renewing monthly subscription to access AI-powered features:

Billing: Managed entirely through Apple App Store
Payment: Processed by Apple (we never see or store your payment information)
Cancellation: Cancel anytime through App Store settings (Settings → App Store → Subscriptions)
Renewal: Automatically renews monthly unless cancelled at least 24 hours before renewal date

We do not collect, store, or process any payment information. All subscription management is handled by Apple.

Data Collection

Data Stored Locally

Listings: Product titles, descriptions, prices, photos, and marketplace posting status
