What is Ownerly?

Ownerly.com is an online marketplace for people to buy and sell their unwanted household items. When you create an account on Ownerly.com, you provide personal information; your name, address, phone number, and email address. They also collect other information like your IP address and cookies. 

A disadvantage of having your personal information on Ownerly.com is you are at risk of being a victim of identity theft and cyber attacks. It’s important to be aware of the risks of sharing too much personal information online, and to take steps to protect yourself.
