Privacy notice
How ChaBazaar handles information you give us. Last updated November 2026.
Our promise
We store information you provide so the site can work — for example account details, reviews, and session data needed to keep you signed in. We will not sell that information, and we will not distribute it to others in any way, ever.
We do not sell mailing lists, share accounts with advertisers, or hand your reviews or personal details to brokers, partners, or “data partners.”
What we store
Depending on how you use ChaBazaar, we may store:
- Account email and credentials needed to sign you in
- Display name and tea reviews (including star ratings) you submit
- Session and security tokens (for example to keep you signed in and to protect forms)
- Operational logs needed to run and debug the service
Catalog content about teas and dealers comes from dealer sites and our own curation. That is product data, not your personal account information.
How we use it
We use what you give us only to operate ChaBazaar: show your reviews, keep your account, improve search and scoring that appear on the site, and keep the service secure. We do not use it for third-party advertising profiles.
When we might be required to disclose
If a valid legal process requires us to produce information, we may have to comply. That is not a sale or a commercial distribution. Outside of that kind of obligation, we do not give your information to others.
