Shopify App Privacy

Protecting merchant data across every integration.

This policy explains how YK Tech (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, and safeguards data processed through our Shopify apps, integrations, and automation tools.

Effective November 20, 2025hello@yktechsolutions.com

Information We Collect

We only request Shopify data that is required to deliver app functionality and fulfill support requests.

  • Merchant & store details

    Shop name, Shopify domain, contact email, and billing metadata provided by Shopify OAuth.

  • Store data authorized by you

    Resources tied to the scopes you approve (for example: orders, products, inventory, locations, fulfillment).

  • Usage and diagnostic data

    Event logs, API errors, and performance signals used to debug and improve reliability.

  • End-customer information

    Only when an app feature specifically needs it (e.g., order data). We never collect more than the granted scope.

How We Use Your Information

Data is processed strictly to power your Shopify app experience and provide support.

  • Operating the app

    Sync Shopify, and render dashboards you expect from the product.

  • Product support

    Investigate tickets, reproduce bugs, and notify merchants about incidents or feature updates.

  • Compliance & prevention

    Audit trails that help us detect misuse, prevent fraud, and comply with Shopify's Partner Program Agreement.

Sharing & Processors

YK Tech does not sell merchant or customer information. Limited processors assist with hosting and monitoring.

  • Infrastructure

    Vercel (hosting) and AWS (databases/backups) store encrypted app data in US.

  • Shopify requirements

    If Shopify requests audit logs or access to investigate a platform issue, we comply as required.

Retention & Deletion

Data is retained only while you actively use the app or as required for lawful purposes.

  • During subscription

    Operational data remains available for real-time syncs and reporting.

  • After uninstall

    Shop data is hard-deleted within 30 days unless you request earlier removal.

  • Access & deletion requests

    Email hello@yktechsolutions.com with your shop domain and we will confirm removal within 5 business days.

Security & Merchant Controls

We follow modern security practices and respect Shopify merchant controls.

  • Transport & storage

    TLS 1.2+ for data in transit, encrypted databases at rest, and least-privilege service accounts.

  • Permissions

    Apps request only the Shopify scopes necessary for stated features. You can review or revoke access any time in the Shopify admin.

  • Incident response

    Confirmed security events are reported to affected merchants and Shopify without undue delay, including remediation steps.

Questions or Data Requests

For GDPR/CPRA requests, security disclosures, or Shopify data inquiries, email hello@yktechsolutions.com with your shop domain and request type. You can also reach us via the support link in your app listing.
