Why it matters

Without robust age verification, minors may use the platform and have their data collected and shared with advertisers in ways that COPPA prohibits for under-13 users and that raise concerns for teens under state privacy laws.

Consumer impact

Poshmark collects extensive personal data including purchase and browsing history, device identifiers, precise location, and social graph information, and shares this data with advertisers, analytics providers, and its South Korean parent company Naver. By default, user profiles and activity are publicly visible on the platform, meaning your buying and selling history can be seen by anyone — not just your connections. You can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising by visiting Poshmark's 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information' link in the app or website footer.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    If you believe a child under 13 has created a Poshmark account, email privacy@poshmark.com to request deletion of the account and all associated personal data. Reference COPPA and request confirmation of deletion.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC is the primary enforcement authority for COPPA (16 C.F.R. Part 312) and has jurisdiction over Poshmark's collection of data from children under 13.
