User Agreement and Privacy Policy
You'll need to accept the terms outlined in the User Agreement and Privacy Policy in order to buy and sell on eBay. Here is some background:
- Why is there a User Agreement? The User Agreement is a legal document that spells out the relationship between you and eBay. It outlines the services, pricing, Privacy Policy, and the buyer and seller relationship for listing, bidding, and buying on items on eBay.
- You need to be at least 18 years old because eBay is available only to individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. If you are not over 18, you can use eBay only in conjunction with your parents or guardians.
- You may decide how you'd like to be contacted by eBay by going to the "My Preferences" page in My eBay. For example, you can elect to receive notifications when you are outbid.
