What it is

Poshmark may collect your precise or approximate location data through your device when you use the app, which can be used for personalization and advertising purposes.

Why it matters

Location data is sensitive personal information that can reveal your home address, daily routines, and other private details about your life.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

Collection of precise geolocation data is explicitly regulated under CPRA as a sensitive category requiring opt-in consent in certain contexts, and triggers heightened disclosure obligations. Compliance teams should verify that geolocation consent mechanisms meet applicable state law standards.

Consumer impact

Poshmark collects extensive personal data including identifiers, payment information, location data, and behavioral data, and shares it with third-party advertising and analytics partners, which may affect your privacy and the ads you see. 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.
