Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our data?
 

Etsy says this on their website:

"After you submit the deletion request
Once open issues are resolved, the permanent deletion process begins and can take around two weeks.

Depending on which of our services you've used (such as whether you've made purchases or sales on Etsy) or if your account violated our policies, we may be required to retain certain information for legal, regulatory, tax, security, or compliance reasons for a limited period of time, after which it will be deleted."

Assuming that Etsy or Ebay are not required to retain tax information, how long are they required to retain our account information related to registration data?
Is it possible to register again after a period of time after requesting the deletion of our data?

if they have deleted the registration data permanently,then you should have no problem re -registering the same information.
Personally,I wonder if you have done something wrong,they will erase everything ?
I know Paypal keeps the accounts forever

I registered an account for my mother and to avoid attracting attention (my mother is 72 years old) I deliberately put the year wrong. I thought I could change it later.

So, when I made the first sale they asked for documentation since the Etsy account information didn't match the bank account information. I think this is an automatic process. Furthermore, the home address did not match, I did not know this.

And also, the first item I sold did not comply with Etsy's policies, so I thought the best thing would be to request account deletion, and a few days later I received the email informing me that my account had been suspended.

The error that triggered all this was the wrong information on the year or the wrong address. Silly mistake, I think I was doomed anyway, due to the item I sold.

There is no PayPal information. Do they delete everything? Person details and bank account information? Fiscally, they are not required to retain data, since I only had one sale.

They never delete the information forever, maybe they don't save everything but they do save the names and numbers of documents.

situation is iffy - i still doubt they delete registration data....it's too juicy to just delete...

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

Well, in theory they are obliged by law to delete all information, except tax information that they are obliged to keep for a certain period of time.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

they are obliged true...but i wouldnt be surprised of some legal loopholes

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

In general they are obliged to delete the information and not keep it but they also keep information to know that the same person does not open an account and can scam again so legally they cannot but personally I think they do.

------------
when you open an Etsy account,your bank account name should match your etsy account name)your shop name can be different),birth date does not matter,
As to the address,did you add a credit card?

A few hours ago I was talking to an Ebay seller friend; also from Spain.
He told me that they suspended his account due to VERO issues. So a week later he made an account in a friend's name, it was an account with all the data different from the suspended account.

The important thing is that approximately 18 months later Ebay began to manage payments (Paypal was no longer there) and my friend had to update the information, bank account, identification, etc... and they did not suspend that second account, so it can be deduced that they effectively deleted their data.

That is, 18 months passed between the suspension of the first account and the moment the information was updated. The accounts were not linked.

He also told me that he spoke to a guy at Ebay and the guy advised him to open another account six or eight months later.

Are we talking about eBAY or Etsy?
Your friend is telling you about his Ebay experience,before MP,Paypal has his financial information,not Ebay.
So when EBay switches to MP ,MP has no record of his past.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

What my friend is referring to is Ebay, but I assume Etsy and Ebay will have the same rules. Ebay did not have the banking information before MP, but the identification number (the ID) did. And that is linkable.

thread is in etsy section, just clarifying

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

In a few months I will try to make another account on Etsy with the same information.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

No they both have different rules and operation method.

For stealth basics, most are similar though, but that's about it.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

well, i dont think ebay or etsy has the power to do this linkable things. Normally only crime or tax department has the certain power.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

do you know is it safe to run etsy accounts under user accounts in the same laptop?

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

I say "linkable" referring to the aspect of suspending your account.

Re: Is it possible to re-register an account after requesting the deletion of our dat
 

I'm not an expert on that yet. But if the accounts belong to different people, and the data of each person is the same (the Etsy data matches the bank account data), if the IP's are different, and if the Canvas Fingerprint is different, there should be no problem. The IP should be of quality.

If I'm wrong or have forgotten information, someone correct me.
