A tweak to our privacy policy

Written by The Trade Me team in General at 3:30pm, Tue 23 Jun 2015

We wanted to let you know we’re making a minor change to our privacy policy to update the provider we use for remarketing, which is when we display Trade Me ads to you after you leave our site. When you do things like browse around Trade Me, make purchases, create listings or add things to your Watchlist, we place a cookie on your browser so that we can serve you with ads when you’re browsing other websites later.

We’ve previously used the Google Display Network to do this, but we’re keen to start using another service called DoubleClick instead. We’ll be tweaking our policy at section 12.g to reflect this. Section 12 of our policy sets out information on how we use cookies.

These changes come into effect on 7 July 2015. As always, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to drop us a line.
