At Marktplaats we take user safety seriously and strive to ensure a safe experience for you when you use our websites. When properly reported, we will quickly investigate all legitimate reports of security vulnerabilities and try to fix potential problems. We have adopted a responsible disclosure policy to encourage reports.

We recognize the important role that security researchers and our community play in keeping Marktplaats and our customers secure. If you believe you've found a vulnerability, we would like to work with you to investigate it as quickly as possible. Please send us as much information as possible to help us better understand the nature and scope of the possible issue.

Responsible disclosure policy

In the event you discover a site or product vulnerability, please notify us using the guidelines below. In order to enable us to review your notification and respond to your report, we will require some time to review. Therefore, we kindly request you to give us reasonable time to revert before you make any information public regarding the vulnerability and make a good faith effort to avoid destruction of data and interruption or degradation of our service during your research. In the event we believe you are not acting in good faith, we reserve all rights to bring a lawsuit against you or ask law enforcement to investigate you.

Guidelines for responsible disclosure

• Share the site or product vulnerability with us without making it public.
• Report in a manner that safeguards the confidentiality of the report only through the following URL: https://app.zerocopter.com/en/rd/0d37aefa-0c1f-4d3e-a4c5-d4879460d595
• Allow us a reasonable amount of time (depending on the type of vulnerability or issue you report) to respond to the issue before disclosing it to others.
• Provide full details of the site or product vulnerability, including Proof-of-Concept URL, the details of the system where the tests were conducted and detailed reproduction steps.

Once you have provided us with the information as described above, we will investigate the reported matter. As soon as we have a understanding/assessment of the vulnerability, we will determine what type of vulnerability it is.
In case any vulnerability would constitute or lead to a personal data breach, as defined by applicable law, we will notify such personal data breach in accordance with the requirements under applicable law.
Do not engage in security research that involves:

• Potential or actual damage to users, systems, data or applications.
• Exploit a vulnerability further than necessary to establish its existence.
• Viewing other users’ data
• the corruption of data
• Conducting any activities that may disrupt our services.
• The use of port scans on our network blocks or executing DDoS attacks.
• Violating privacy policies, destroying data, interrupt or otherwise degrading Marktplaats.nl systems or the systems of our affiliates during your research.
