Trust & Safety

Is AllChinaBuy Spreadsheet Safe?

We take your data privacy and shopping security seriously. Here is everything you need to know about staying safe while using our allchinabuy spreadsheet tools.

Data Privacy Tips

Our spreadsheet templates do not require you to create an account or submit personal data to this website. When you copy a Google Sheets template, you control who sees it. We recommend keeping your sheet private unless you are actively collaborating on a group buy.

  • Never paste your agent login password into any spreadsheet.
  • Use a dedicated Gmail or Google account for haul tracking, separate from your primary email.
  • Disable link sharing by default and only invite specific people via email when needed.
  • Regularly review who has access to shared sheets and remove inactive users.

Payment Safety

This website does not process payments. All transactions happen on the official AllChinaBuy agent platform or your chosen marketplace. Always double-check URLs before entering card details, and use trusted payment methods like PayPal for buyer protection.

Pro tip: Use the notes column in your allchinabuy spreadsheet to record payment confirmation numbers and screenshot every checkout page before you click confirm.

Scam Warning Signs

The spreadsheet community is generally helpful, but bad actors exist. Watch for these red flags:

Someone DMing you a 'premium' spreadsheet for payment
Links that look like Google Sheets but redirect elsewhere
Requests for your agent account password to 'help track'
Unsolicited Excel files with macros enabled — never open these

Best Practices

Follow these habits and your shopping experience will stay smooth and secure:

  1. 1Verify every seller has positive ratings and recent reviews before adding items to your sheet.
  2. 2Keep a backup copy of your spreadsheet after every major update.
  3. 3Never share your agent login, 2FA codes, or payment details in any document.
  4. 4Use the official AllChinaBuy website and bookmark it to avoid phishing clones.
  5. 5Report suspicious spreadsheet links to the community moderators immediately.
