Updated August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Linwood’s Auction (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit linwoodsauction.com (the “Site”) or contact us through the Site.
This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through or in connection with this Site. If you use a third-party auction platform, payment service, shipping provider, or other outside service, that provider’s own privacy policy will apply to information collected by that provider.
Information We Collect
We may collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, and information you include in an inquiry, consignment request, registration form, or other communication.
When you visit the Site, certain technical information may also be collected automatically by our website hosting, security, analytics, or similar service providers. This may include your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit.
How We Use Information
We may use information collected through the Site to:
- respond to questions, inquiries, and consignment requests;
- provide information about auctions, services, or transactions;
- communicate with bidders, buyers, consignors, and other customers;
- operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site;
- maintain appropriate business and transaction records; and
- comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party service providers for website hosting, website maintenance, email, analytics, payment processing, auction services, or other business functions. We may provide these service providers with information reasonably necessary for them to perform services for us.
Our Site may also contain links to third-party websites or auction platforms. We do not control the privacy practices of those third parties. Information you provide directly to a third party is governed by that third party’s privacy policy and terms.
Payment Information
Payments may be processed through banks, credit card processors, auction platforms, or other third-party payment services. Information submitted directly to those providers is handled according to their own privacy and security practices.
Cookies and Analytics
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies for basic website functionality, security, analytics, and to better understand how visitors use the Site. Third-party service providers may also place or access cookies or similar technologies in connection with services they provide to us.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the operation of some parts of the Site.
Do Not Track
Some web browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting. Because there is no uniform standard for responding to DNT signals, the Site does not currently respond to DNT signals. Third-party services used on the Site may collect information over time and across different websites in accordance with their own privacy practices.
How We Share Information
We may share information with service providers and business partners when reasonably necessary to operate our business, provide requested services, process transactions, maintain the Site, or communicate with you.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, a court order, legal process, governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Linwood’s Auction or others.
If our business or assets are transferred, reorganized, sold, or merged, information maintained in connection with the business may be transferred as part of that transaction.
Information Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate business records, to resolve disputes, and to comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
Information Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information under our control. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Information
You may contact us to ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal information that you have provided directly to us. We will consider and respond to requests as required by applicable law. Certain information may need to be retained for transaction records, legal obligations, fraud prevention, or other legitimate business purposes.
California Residents
California residents may have additional rights regarding their personal information under applicable California law. If a California privacy law applies to your information and provides you with a particular right, you may contact us using the information below to submit a request.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights provided by applicable law.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Site. If we learn that such information has been collected, we may delete it as appropriate.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with the updated date shown at the top.
