iLikeNew privacy policy
Updated October 24, 2026. This policy covers ilikenew.com and the iLikeNew VIP iPhone app and its website flows.
Information used to provide the service
When you create an account, we collect your username, email, password hash, verification status and alert preferences. A phone number is collected when you choose a feature that requires it. We use cookies and session tokens to keep you signed in, protect private conversations and prevent abuse.
Orders and auctions may include contact details, purchases, shipping or delivery addresses, pickup instructions, payment references and fulfillment, refund or dispute records. Card details are entered with Stripe; iLikeNew stores payment references and results rather than your full card number. Seller applications and orders include business details, listing photos, inventory, return policies and settlement records. New seller verification and payout bank details are entered on Stripe through Stripe Connect. iLikeNew shares the seller’s business name and contact email with Stripe to start onboarding, and stores the connected account reference and verification status. For earlier direct seller bank payouts, iLikeNew collected the authorized beneficiary name, bank name, account type, routing and account numbers, consent and verification records. Routing and account numbers are encrypted; full numbers are available only to the Site owner for verification and payment, with access recorded. Customers never receive these details. Bank payment records retain the recipient name, bank name, account ending, amounts, status and reference for accounting. Stripe collects and retains seller identity and payout information under its own privacy policy. Earlier bank and settlement records remain protected for accounting and outstanding payment reconciliation.
Messages, reviews, reports, uploaded photos, saved website interests and searches can contain information you choose to provide. Operational records may include request identifiers, IP addresses, device/browser information, errors and interactions needed to operate and secure the service. These records support search, customer service, stock accuracy and fraud prevention.
Resale certificates
If you apply for resale purchasing, we collect your business and tax registration details, the goods covered, your authorized signer’s name and title, a drawn electronic signature, signing consent, timestamp, request evidence, and any supporting certificates or permits you upload. Signed certificates and PDFs are private to the purchaser and authorized owner. We retain the signed certificate, approval or revocation history, and covered purchase records for tax compliance for the applicable jurisdiction’s required period, including at least four years after the last covered Texas sale, six years for Maine, and permanent retention where required. We do not automatically delete these records and retain them longer while an applicable tax assessment, refund or proceeding remains open. Account deletion does not remove these required tax records. Stripe receives the exemption selection and payment references; your full resale certificate and permit number are not sent in payment metadata.
Public seller information and reviews
Your seller name, description, listings, consented fulfillment address, instructions and return policy appear publicly when your seller profile is approved. Pickup listings clearly identify your location. Reviews display the reviewer’s public username, rating and text after a paid order’s receipt is confirmed. Do not include private contact or payment information in public descriptions, photos or reviews.
Services that receive information
We use hosting and storage providers to run the website, Stripe for payments and seller verification, Clover for linked warehouse inventory and in-store order checkout, and ShipStation, carriers and delivery services for fulfillment. When you choose in-store checkout, the order reference, customer name, item details, prices and quantities are sent to Clover. We read the resulting payment status and references to update your order; payment card information is handled by Clover. Product listing information and inventory quantities may be sent to eBay when our team publishes or synchronizes a listing. Purchases made on eBay are handled through eBay. Email and newsletter providers receive the information needed to deliver requested messages. Eligible product, price and local stock data may be sent to Google Merchant Center to help customers discover warehouse products.
If you use the automated shopping assistant, its questions and relevant preferences are sent to OpenAI for a response. Use team chat for personal order details. Social, directions and other external links open services with their own privacy policies.
iPhone app
The native app requests the public catalog from ilikenew.com. Account, checkout, seller and help pages open the website in a visible browser sheet and follow the website practices described above. Website login is separate from the native catalog requests.
Saved finds and downloaded cover photos stay on your device and are not synchronized to an account. Clear them from More → Clear saved finds. Scanning requests camera access only when you open the scanner. Camera frames are not stored or uploaded by the app. The app does not request your location; Apple Maps handles navigation after you choose directions. Network and map services may process requests under their own policies.
Your choices and account deletion
Cart reminders are enabled automatically for customer accounts with a verified email. We send one reminder after 24 hours without cart changes, subject to availability and checkout status. Turn off cart reminder emails in My account.
Choose account alerts in My account, use newsletter unsubscribe links, and revoke browser notification or camera permissions in your device settings. You can delete your website account at Account privacy and deletion after confirming your password.
Account deletion removes credentials, personal account profile data, account preferences, account chats and public seller content, and revokes website sessions. Full seller bank account and routing details are removed when the account is deleted; restricted payment and audit records retain only the information needed for outstanding transactions and accounting. Required order, payment, fulfillment, refund, fraud prevention and settlement records remain restricted for as long as needed to complete transactions, resolve claims and meet legal/accounting obligations. Photo removal may be retried if storage is temporarily unavailable; removed public content is no longer accessible through its original listing. Copies held by payment, shipping, email and other providers follow their retention policies. Separately subscribed newsletters require their unsubscribe link. Device-only saved finds must be cleared on your device.
Contact
For privacy, deletion, correction or outstanding transaction requests, contact admin@ilikenew.com or 682-777-4484. iLikeNew Warehouse is at 801 NE 38th St, Fort Worth, TX 76106.
Anonymous shopping activity
We count product and auction views, cart additions and checkout visits to improve the store. These counts do not include contact details, card details or cross-site identifiers. Random event identifiers prevent duplicate retries and are deleted after 48 hours. Browser activity counting respects Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Our team also reviews aggregate account, bid, order and confirmed payment counts from operational records.
