Privacy Policy

Our values:

Trust is the foundation of the Shopify platform and includes trusting us to do the right thing with your information. Three main values guide us as we develop our products and services. These values should help you better understand how we think about your information and privacy.

Why we process your information:

We generally process your information when we need to do so to fulfill a contractual obligation (for example, to process your subscription payments to use the Shopify platform), or where we or someone we work with needs to use your personal information for a reason related to their business (for example, to provide you with a service). European law calls these reasons “legitimate interests.” These “legitimate interests” include:

  • Preventing risk and fraud
  • Answering questions or providing other types of support
  • Helping merchants find and use apps through our app store
  • Providing and improving our products and services
  • Providing reporting and analytics
  • Testing out features or additional services
  • Assisting with marketing, advertising, or other communications

  • Registration data, such as information that you provide to register for an account or sign up for an event, including the day and month of your birth and the event you registered for.
  • Data about others for whom you purchase an item or gift, such as name, delivery address and phone number. Please do not purchase a gift for someone or share their contact information with us unless you have their permission to do so.

For compliance, fraud prevention and safety.
