CURRENT PRACTICES
How this site handles information.
The policy is intentionally short because the site currently uses a simple publishing setup and does not maintain reader accounts.
Cookies and third parties
The current pages do not add advertising, analytics or social-media tracking scripts. Hosting, security and email providers may still process the limited information required to provide their services.
Contact form and email
The contact form runs in your browser and prepares a draft in your default email application. Nothing is sent until you choose to send it. If you send the email, we receive your address, message and any attachments you choose to include. We use them to answer questions, review corrections or consider voluntary contributions. We do not use them for unrelated marketing.
Sharing and retention
Jasper Auction does not sell or rent personal information. Information is kept only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose it was received, site security or a legal obligation.
ABOUT US
A small volunteer community trying to make auction work less stressful.
Jasper Auction is an independent technical publication and small volunteer community focused on the equipment, technology and operating infrastructure behind auction houses, simulcast teams and mobile sale crews.
People behind Jasper Auction have faced the same kinds of sound failures, network problems, equipment confusion and last-minute operational issues described on this site. Articles are organized around real workflows, compatibility, testing, recovery and common failure points so readers can make practical decisions without relying on product marketing alone.
Jasper Auction does not conduct auctions, accept consignments, list property or handle bidder registration and payments. The material is improved when readers send useful corrections or field experience.
