as far as ebid is concerned and its sellers = buy it now button or completion of a auction it needs to be stated that any information gathered by the seller when a contract is made gives to seller authority to use the data to process the order only, you can not use this data or store it without permission of the consumer, in other words you cant spam, store, sell, this information and must delete this information after the contract is fulfilled, how this pans out in regards to guarantees ect , i dont know,
several companies i deal with have asked me just prior to gpdr if i give consent to them to store my information i have responded no and yes, it depends if it was a one off or i would still trade with them,
basically if your caught storing ,selling, spamming information without permission youl face a hefty fine , it applies world wide any one trading withing the eu say from usa,
it has nothing to do with sellers displaying there contact information,
