At FyndFinder, we want to create a trustworthy and helpful platform for discovering thrift stores, secondhand shops, flea markets, vintage stores, and other unique locations across Sweden.

This Integrity Policy explains the standards we expect from everyone using the platform, including visitors, registered users, and business or location owners.

Users retain ownership of the content they upload but are responsible for ensuring they have the right to share it.

You may only upload content that:

  • You created yourself, or
  • You have permission to use

You may not upload:

  • Copyrighted material without permission
  • Private or confidential information
  • Images intended to mislead users

By uploading content to FyndFinder, you grant FyndFinder a non-exclusive right to display and use that content within the platform for operational and promotional purposes related to the service.
