Poshmark's updated Privacy Policy provides significantly more transparent disclosure about what personal data the company collects, how it uses that data, and how you can exercise your privacy rights. The policy now explicitly itemizes data collection points, including photos, videos, payment information, social media accounts, and user interaction data, and provides a dedicated section on consumer rights and choices. The policy also includes a dedicated California Privacy Notice supplement, indicating enhanced compliance with California privacy laws. You can review the full updated policy and California Privacy Notice to understand Poshmark's specific data practices and identify which privacy rights and choices are available to you.
View change record →Poshmark's updated privacy policy provides more explicit detail about what categories of personal data the company collects through the platform, including user-generated content (photos, videos, listings), interaction data (likes, comments, offers), and payment information. The expanded disclosure does not necessarily indicate new data collection practices, but gives users clearer visibility into what information Poshmark holds. You can review the full policy at Poshmark's website to understand which data collection practices apply to your account activity and, if you are a California resident, consult the supplementary California Privacy Notice referenced in the policy.

Users have limited control over how their data is used for targeted advertising unless they actively exercise opt-out rights. You can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information by visiting Poshmark's privacy settings or submitting a request through their designated privacy portal.
