This provision establishes the operational scope of contact methods eBay may employ and defines the parties with whom contact information may be shared. It creates authorization for automated communication technologies that would otherwise require separate consent under telecommunications regulations.
Users who provide telephone numbers to eBay operate under terms that permit receipt of automated calls, prerecorded messages, and texts across multiple communication categories, and that authorize disclosure of phone numbers to eBay's service provider network. Continued use of the service with a phone number on file constitutes affirmative agreement to these contact practices.
