11. Shopify App β Merchant Data
XtotheSpot offers a Shopify application ("the App") that allows merchants to connect their Shopify store to the XtotheSpot marketplace. This section describes how we collect and handle data obtained through the Shopify API in connection with the App.
Data we collect from Shopify merchants:
- Shop domain and store name (used to identify and associate your store with your XtotheSpot account)
- Shopify API access token (stored encrypted; used solely to read product and inventory data from your store)
- Product and variant data: titles, SKUs, barcodes, prices, images, and inventory levels
- Inventory webhook events (used to keep marketplace listings in sync with your store)
What we do not collect:
- We do not collect, store, or process any of your customers' personal information (names, emails, addresses, payment details, or order history)
- We do not access any Shopify data beyond the scopes explicitly granted:
read_productsandread_inventory
How merchant data is used:
- To match your Shopify product variants to listings in the XtotheSpot marketplace catalog
- To automatically activate or deactivate your marketplace listings when inventory changes in your Shopify store
- To display your product data within the App interface embedded in your Shopify Admin
Data sharing:
Merchant store data is not sold, rented, or shared with any third party except as required to operate the XtotheSpot marketplace (e.g., displaying matched product listings to buyers on xtothespot.com). We are bound by the Shopify API Terms of Service and handle all merchant data in accordance with those terms.
Data retention and deletion:
When a merchant uninstalls the App, we receive a Shopify app/uninstalled webhook
and immediately deactivate all associated marketplace listings. You may request complete
deletion of your store data at any time by contacting us at
[email protected].
We comply with Shopify's mandatory GDPR webhooks for customer data requests, customer data
deletion, and shop data deletion.
