Security

We strive to protect your personal data but cannot guarantee absolute security. Your information is protected through various security measures, yet no internet transmission is entirely secure.

Facebook Authentication

Gmarket.ge allows users to log in using their Facebook account. This feature facilitates connection with Facebook friends and sharing information through Facebook’s wall and newsfeed. If you are registered on Gmarket.ge and also have a Facebook account, selecting “Facebook Authentication” will link both profiles unless the email addresses registered with Facebook and Gmarket.ge differ. In case of different email addresses, we will ask if you wish to merge these accounts. You’ll need to enter your password to confirm that you control the connected Facebook account. If you are registered on Gmarket.ge but not on Facebook, and you select “Facebook Authentication,” you will be prompted to create a Facebook account. By proceeding, you consent to share your information with Gmarket.ge and agree to Facebook’s terms of use.

Please note that logging out of Gmarket.ge does not automatically log you out of Facebook. Your data may remain accessible to others until you end the session. Responsibility for maintaining the security of your account in this regard lies with you.

Google Authentication

Gmarket.ge also allows users to log in using their Google account, enabling easy communication and information sharing through Google email. If you are registered on Gmarket.ge and have a Google email, selecting “Google Authentication” will link your profiles unless the email addresses registered with Google and Gmarket.ge do not match. If there’s a mismatch, we will offer an option to merge the accounts. You will be required to enter your password to confirm control over the Google account. If you are registered on Gmarket.ge but not with Google, selecting “Google Authentication” will prompt you to create a Google account. By continuing, you agree to make your information available to Gmarket.ge and accept Google’s terms of use.

Remember, logging out of Gmarket.ge does not automatically log you out of your Google account. Your data may remain accessible until the session ends. The responsibility for securing your account in this context rests with you.

How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Information?

At Gmarket.ge, we retain your personal data for as long as necessary to provide you with our services. Additionally, we store your data for a period of 10 years after the end of our service relationship for various reasons, including but not limited to:

  1. Responding to any queries or complaints.
  2. Demonstrating that we have treated you fairly.
  3. Conducting accounting and auditing in compliance with relevant regulations and rules.
