IKEAMANIA respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly and transparently.

This Privacy Policy explains how IKEAMANIA (“IKEAMANIA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit IKEAMANIA.com, create an account, buy or sell products, communicate with another marketplace user, or otherwise use our website and marketplace services.

Products offered through IKEAMANIA may be sold directly by IKEAMANIA or by independent third-party vendors using the marketplace.

IKEAMANIA is an independent marketplace and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or officially connected with IKEA. IKEA and related names, trademarks, product names, and logos remain the property of their respective owners.

For example, when you purchase from an independent seller, we may provide that seller with information reasonably necessary to fulfill the order, such as:

  • Buyer name
  • Shipping address
  • Order details
  • Contact information when necessary for delivery or pickup

Sellers may only use buyer information for legitimate marketplace purposes, including order fulfillment, customer service, returns, and legally required recordkeeping.

Sellers may not use buyer information obtained through IKEAMANIA for unrelated marketing, data harvesting, resale, or unauthorized purposes.

Similarly, certain seller information may be displayed or disclosed to buyers where necessary to identify the seller, fulfill a transaction, comply with applicable law, or resolve a dispute.

We may disclose information to companies that help operate IKEAMANIA, including providers of:

  • Website hosting

  • Payment processing
  • Vendor payouts
  • Email delivery
  • Shipping
  • Analytics
  • Cloud storage
  • Security and fraud prevention
  • Customer support
  • Accounting
  • Tax services

These providers receive information only as reasonably necessary to perform their functions or as otherwise permitted by law.

7. Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

IKEAMANIA does not sell personal information for money as part of its business model.

Certain analytics, advertising, or cookie technologies may constitute “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or similar activity under some privacy laws depending on how those technologies are configured.

Where applicable law provides an opt-out right, IKEAMANIA will honor qualifying requests through the privacy or cookie controls made available on the website.

8. Legal Requirements and Protection

We may preserve or disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

  • Comply with applicable laws
  • Respond to lawful government requests
  • Respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal proceedings
  • Detect or investigate fraud
  • Enforce agreements
  • Protect the rights or property of IKEAMANIA
  • Protect buyers, sellers, or other users
  • Protect the safety of any person

9. International Users

IKEAMANIA may be accessed by users outside the United States.

Information may therefore be transferred to, processed, or stored in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

Where required by applicable law, appropriate measures will be used for international transfers of personal information.

10. Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and which privacy laws apply, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

These may include the right to:

  • Request information about personal data collected about you
  • Access personal information
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion
  • Restrict certain processing
  • Object to certain processing
  • Receive certain information in portable form
  • Withdraw consent where processing depends on consent
  • Opt out of qualifying targeted advertising, sale, or sharing

  • Receive equal service and pricing without unlawful discrimination for exercising privacy rights

Not every right applies in every jurisdiction or circumstance.

We may need to verify your identity before completing a privacy request.

11. California Residents

Where the California Consumer Privacy Act and related California privacy requirements apply to IKEAMANIA, qualifying California residents may exercise the rights provided by applicable California law, including rights concerning access, correction, deletion, and certain disclosures or uses of personal information.

IKEAMANIA will not unlawfully discriminate against a consumer for exercising an applicable privacy right.

12. European Economic Area and United Kingdom Users

Where European or United Kingdom data-protection law applies, personal information may be processed on one or more lawful grounds, including:

  • Performance of a contract
  • Compliance with legal obligations
  • Legitimate business interests
  • Consent, where required

Depending on the circumstances, qualifying individuals may have rights of access, rectification, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, and withdrawal of consent.

You may also have the right to submit a complaint to the applicable data-protection authority.

13. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and for legitimate legal or business purposes.

Retention periods may depend on:

  • Whether an account remains active
  • Transaction history
  • Seller relationships
  • Accounting obligations
  • Tax requirements
  • Fraud prevention
  • Dispute resolution
  • Legal requirements
  • Enforcement of agreements

Some transaction information may therefore remain in our records after an account has been closed.

14. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

However, no internet transmission, online platform, payment system, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials.

15. Children

IKEAMANIA is intended for adults capable of entering legally binding transactions.

The marketplace is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly seek personal information from children under 13.

Seller accounts may only be established by persons legally capable of entering the applicable marketplace agreement.

16. Third-Party Websites

IKEAMANIA may contain links to external websites or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites. Their own policies govern information provided directly to them.

17. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our marketplace, technology, legal requirements, or business practices.

The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.

Material changes may also be communicated through the website or account systems where appropriate.
