What it is

The terms establish that all purchases are final, with returns, refunds, and cancellations permitted only in three specific circumstances: cancellation within three hours of purchase by the buyer, cancellation by Poshmark or the seller under permitted circumstances, or where the listing explicitly stated returns were available.

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.
