FusionTech Industries LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the Kurb platform at kurbsale.com — an online marketplace that allows individual sellers (“Sellers”) to host garage and estate sales and buyers (“Buyers”) to browse and submit purchase offers. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and retain personal information in connection with the Kurb platform. Please read this policy carefully. By using the platform you acknowledge that you have read and understood it.
The data controller for personal information processed through kurbsale.com is:

Kurb is a multi-tenant SaaS platform. FusionTech Industries LLC acts as the platform operator and a data controller. When Buyers interact with a Seller’s Storefront, both FusionTech and the Seller determine the purposes and means of processing Buyer personal information. Accordingly, FusionTech and each Seller are joint data controllers of Buyer Data under GDPR Article 26. The joint controller arrangement — including each party’s respective responsibilities and the primary point of contact for data subject rights — is set out in Section 7 of the Seller Terms of Service, available at kurbsale.com/terms. A summary for data subjects is available on request. Buyers are visitors who browse and submit offers without needing an account.
Buyers can browse the platform without providing any personal information. We collect the following information about Buyers:
| Data Element | When Collected | Required? | Opt-Out? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session identifier (random UUID) | First visit to any Kurb storefront | Yes — always | No |
| Name | Submitting an offer or subscribing to a sale | Yes (for offers) | No |
| Email address | Submitting an offer or subscribing to a sale | Yes (for offers) | No |
| Phone number | Submitting an offer or subscribing to a sale | No | N/A |
| Offer amount | Submitting an offer | Yes | No |
| Message content | Asking a question about an item | Yes | No |
| Outbid alert preference | Submitting an offer | No | Yes |
Buyer contact information (name, email, phone) is stored in the Seller’s database record, tied to the specific offer or subscription. It is not stored in a central Buyer profile. The same session identifier is reused when a Buyer visits multiple Sellers’ storefronts on the platform (cross-Seller session persistence). If a Buyer consents to Personalization storage, their name, email, and phone are also saved in their browser for form pre-fill convenience. Server-side offer data is stored regardless of this browser consent.
When a Seller creates an account, we collect:
We use Buyer information for the following purposes:
We use Seller information for the following purposes:
For individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom, our legal bases for processing personal information are:
| Legal Basis | Activity |
|---|---|
| Contract performance (Art. 6(1)(b)) | Processing Buyer offer data to facilitate the purchase transaction; processing Seller account data to provide the platform service |
| Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) | Session identification for platform functionality; fraud prevention; platform security |
| Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) | Outbid alerts (optional); Personalization browser storage; optional analytics |
We do not sell personal information to third parties. We do not share data with advertising networks. We share personal information only with the following service providers, strictly for the purposes described:
| Service Provider | Data Shared | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk (clerk.com) | Seller email, identity metadata | Seller account authentication and identity management |
| Stripe (stripe.com) | Seller identity, billing information | Subscription payment processing |
| Resend (resend.com) | Buyer name, email, phone, message content, offer details | Transactional email delivery (outbid alerts, session recovery, confirmations) |
| Cloudflare | All platform traffic, IP addresses, uploaded images | Hosting, content delivery network (CDN), image storage (R2) |
Each service provider is subject to contractual data protection obligations. Their privacy practices are governed by their own privacy policies.
When a Buyer submits an offer or subscribes to a Seller’s sale, the Buyer’s name, email address, phone number, offer amount, and any message content are made available to that Seller through the platform dashboard. Sellers may also write and store private notes about Buyers. As joint data controllers, Sellers are independently responsible for handling Buyer personal information in compliance with applicable data protection law. Seller obligations — including permitted uses of Buyer Data, data security requirements, and cooperation with data subject requests — are set out in Section 7 of the Seller Terms of Service.
Kurb uses browser localStorage — not cookies — for all client-side data storage. No tracking pixels, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics are deployed.
| Category | What Is Stored | Opt-Out Available? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Session identifier, consent preferences | No — required for platform functionality |
| Personalization (opt-in) | Buyer name, email, phone (for form pre-fill) | Yes — via the consent banner |
| Analytics (opt-in) | Usage metrics | Yes — via the consent banner (not currently active) |
A consent banner is displayed on first visit. Consent preferences are stored in the browser and can be updated at any time. Note: Because the session identifier is stored in localStorage (not a cookie), standard browser cookie opt-out mechanisms do not apply to it. The session identifier is strictly necessary for the platform to function.
All platform data is stored on infrastructure operated by Cloudflare, Inc., located in the United States:
