What it is

Fiverr can change its privacy policy at any time and considers changes effective immediately upon posting — you will not necessarily receive direct notification of material changes.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Fiverr reserves the right to change its privacy practices at any time with no guaranteed direct notice to users — continued use of the platform after a policy update constitutes acceptance of new terms, including potentially expanded data collection or sharing.
