Shopify Apps – Privacy Policy
1. About This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all Shopify applications (“Apps”) developed and published by AV Focus Software Solutions Pvt Ltd. (“Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”).
By installing or using any of our Apps, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.
We are committed to protecting merchant data, minimizing collection, and complying with applicable privacy laws.
2. Data We Access From Shopify
Our Apps access only the data required to operate properly. Depending on the App, this may include:
- Store information (store name, domain, email, Shopify store ID)
- Product information (title, description, images, tags, status, inventory, variants, metafields)
- Collection information (titles, sorting rules, metafields)
- App settings and configuration data
- Theme or storefront access when required for app functionality
We do not access customer personal data unless an App specifically requires it, and when it does, it is disclosed clearly inside that App.
We do not access or store payment card information.
3. How We Use the Data
Data accessed through Shopify is used exclusively to:
- Provide core App functionality
- Manage product or storefront content as requested by the merchant
- Process App configuration settings
- Improve App performance and support
- Generate or modify store data upon merchant request (e.g., merchandising, SEO automation, or catalog optimization)
We never sell or rent data.
We do not use merchant data for advertising or marketing.
4. Optional Third-Party Services
Some Apps may allow merchants to connect external services (e.g., AI generation, analytics, translation providers).
When a merchant chooses to integrate with a third party:
The merchant is responsible for reviewing third-party privacy terms
Any API keys are provided and controlled by the merchant
Keys remain in merchant-controlled configuration fields
We do not use third-party keys outside the purpose chosen by the merchant
6. Data Sharing
do not share data with third parties except:
- Services explicitly activated by the merchant (e.g., AI or translation APIs)
- Sub-processors required to host or secure the App environment (e.g., hosting providers)
We do not sell or trade merchant information.
7. Data Retention & Deletion (Shopify Uninstall)
When a merchant uninstalls an App:
- Shopify automatically sends an uninstall webhook
- We remove configuration and store-specific records within 48–72 hours
- Merchants may request earlier removal at any time
To request deletion, contact: info@infocus-solution.com
8. Access to Customer Personal Data
Unless an App explicitly requires customer information (for example, order customization or customer segmentation apps):
- We do not collect customer names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, or payment data
If any App requires Customer PII for operation, it will be clearly stated in the App interface and documentation.
9. Legal Basis (GDPR, CCPA & Global)
We comply with applicable privacy regulations:
GDPR (EU users):
You retain the rights to:
- Request access
- Request correction
- Request deletion
- Restrict processing
CCPA (California users):
You retain the rights to:
- Request disclosure

10. Data Location
Data may be processed in jurisdictions where our hosting or cloud providers operate.
All providers follow industry-standard security.
11. Merchant Responsibilities
Merchants are responsible for:
- Reviewing and approving any data changes before publishing
- Maintaining confidentiality of optional API keys (e.g., AI services)
- Ensuring store-level legal compliance for product content changes
12. Children
Our Apps are not intended for children under 16 and do not knowingly collect children’s data.

We may update this policy periodically.
Continued use of any App implies acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
