An update on our terms of use and policies

Quickly find out what's new.

What's new Every day, we work to make our platform the best it can be, which includes regularly revisiting our terms and policies (also known as our House Rules) to make sure they meet the needs of our growing community and allow us to continue to support you. Today, we're sharing a few updates that go into effect on September 15, 2024. While we encourage you to read up on all the changes, here's a quick look at some of the changes that affect you as an Etsy member: Terms of Use: We've made some changes to our dispute resolution clause (section 11) for users in North and South America, with updates to our arbitration procedures for smaller matters and for coordinated or "mass" arbitrations (with 25 or more claimants). We have also updated the choice of law that's applicable to the Terms. As before, the arbitration agreement includes a class action and jury waiver, which means we'll be resolving most disputes in private, individual arbitration, and not in court. Please read this section carefully. We've added which entity acts as the merchant of record, depending on a buyer's currency and location of your payment instrument. Review the revised Terms of Use → Privacy Policy We've updated our Privacy Policy to give you more details about how we collect, use, and share your information, including to reflect new products and features, as well as changes to our business practices. For our US users, we've also added more context about how we collect and use your data, whom we share it with, and how to exercise your rights. Review the revised Privacy Policy → Gift Cards, Credits, and Coupons Policy We've revised our Gift Cards, Credits, and Coupons Policy in light of the newly updated Etsy Gift Card experience in the US to clarify that only Etsy-wide gift cards are permitted. Etsy's Creativity Standards You might have seen that we recently updated Etsy's Creativity Standards, which went into effect July 9, to clarify what items can be sold in our marketplace. This includes items made, designed, handpicked, or sourced by our sellers. Read Etsy's Creativity Standards → Adult Nudity and Sexual Content Policy Effective July 29, our Adult Nudity and Sexual Content Policy introduces more rigorous guidelines regarding our prohibitions of nude or sexual content, as well as how to appropriately list certain mature content.

A quick update on our terms of use & policies

Find out what's new.

What's new Every day, we work to make our platform the best it can be, which includes regularly revisiting our terms and policies (AKA our House Rules) to make sure they meet the needs of our growing community and allow us to continue to support you. Today, we're sharing a few quick updates that go into effect on July 24, 2023. Here's a quick look at some of the changes that affect you as an Etsy member: Terms of Use: We've made some changes to our arbitration clause (section 11) for users in North and South America, to clarify which disputes must be arbitrated, explain how you can opt out of the arbitration process or reject the changes, and set rules and procedures for arbitration (including coordinated arbitrations), among other things. As before, the arbitration agreement includes a class action and jury waiver, which means we'll be resolving most disputes in private, individual arbitration, and not in court. Please read this section carefully. We've added a new section 12 for our users in Europe, Asia, Australia, and Africa, explaining where disputes between us will be resolved and the law that will apply to any disputes. Relevant to all users, we've also refined certain terms relating to your and Etsy's respective legal rights, including the limitation of Etsy's liability, your indemnity obligations, and the license you grant us (and authorized third parties) to use content you post through the Services. The revised Terms of Use are available here. Privacy Policy: We've updated our Privacy Policy to give you more details about how we collect, use, and share your information, and we've simplified the format to make things easier to navigate. We've also updated the Policy to reflect new products and features, as well as changes to our business practices. For our U.S. users, we've also added more context about how we collect and use your data, whom we share it with, and how to exercise your rights, as required by certain new U.S. privacy laws. The revised Privacy Policy is available here. Intellectual Property Policy: We've updated our Intellectual Property Policy to clarify how we process certain reports of copyright infringement and eligible counter-notices. The revised Intellectual Property Policy is available here. You can read our full updated policies by clicking on the links above. Questions about this email? Learn more.
