Information We May Collect
The Information Collected Depends on How You Interact With Us
Different information may be involved depending on whether you contact us, buy through a marketplace, submit a COA verification request, subscribe for updates, browse the website, or submit an item for consignment review.
Contact and Inquiry Information
This may include your name, email address, message content, item links, photographs, consignment details, or other information you choose to send through a form or email.
Order and Transaction Information
When relevant, Personified Collectibles may retain order details, item descriptions, shipping information, marketplace references, buyer communication, included-materials notes, documentation records, and records needed to support a transaction.
COA Record and Verification Information
For COA verification, we may collect certificate numbers, item descriptions, photographs, purchase details, ownership notes, related documentation, and contact information needed to review the request.
Consignment Submission Information
Consignment or sale-consideration submissions may include photographs, measurements, condition notes, ownership history, provenance details, documentation, source information, and contact information.
Newsletter and Update Information
If you subscribe for updates, your email address and subscription preferences may be processed through the newsletter service used to send listing updates, collector notes, or announcements.
Website and Technical Information
Website hosting, analytics, security, forms, cookies, or platform tools may collect technical information such as browser data, device information, referral information, pages viewed, or approximate usage activity.
How We Use Information
Information Is Used to Respond, Support, Document, and Operate
Personified Collectibles may use submitted information to respond to inquiries, process or support orders, review consignment submissions, issue or verify COA records, maintain item documentation and business records, communicate about a transaction, prevent misuse or fraud, improve site content, and comply with legal or business record obligations.
Payment card information is not intentionally collected through this website. Payments made through eBay, PayPal, or another payment processor are handled by that platform according to its own policies and security practices.
COA Records and Long-Term Documentation
Some Records May Remain Relevant Beyond the Original Transaction
Certain COA and item documentation records may be retained for an extended period because collectible provenance, certificate verification, item history, dispute handling, and record integrity can remain relevant long after the original transaction.
If you request deletion, correction, or limitation of certain personal information, Personified Collectibles will review the request. Some records may need to be retained where reasonably necessary for certificate integrity, fraud prevention, dispute handling, legal obligations, accounting, or business documentation.
Third-Party Services
Other Platforms May Process Information Under Their Own Policies
Personified Collectibles may use third-party services to operate the website, process forms, communicate with users, sell items, process payments, ship orders, manage newsletter updates, use analytics or cookie tools when enabled, and maintain business records.

Sharing and Security
Information Is Shared Only When Needed to Operate, Respond, or Comply
Personified Collectibles does not intentionally sell personal information for its own advertising purposes. Some third-party services may process information under their own privacy policies, cookie tools, analytics settings, marketplace terms, or service-provider arrangements.
How Information May Be Shared
Information may be shared when reasonably necessary to operate the business, respond to your request, process a transaction, ship an order, manage records, use third-party service providers, prevent fraud or misuse, comply with law, or address a dispute.
Security

Sensitive Information
Please avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information, payment details, personal identification numbers, or unrelated documents through contact forms, verification requests, consignment submissions, or email. Send only what is needed to review your request.
Your Choices and Requests
Access, Correction, Deletion, and Privacy Questions
You may contact Personified Collectibles to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information associated with your inquiry, newsletter subscription, verification request, order support, consignment submission, or business communication.
Some requests may be limited where information is needed to complete a transaction, maintain COA record integrity, preserve business records, comply with law, prevent fraud, handle disputes, or support item documentation.
