5 quater. Shopify protected customer data

  • When a merchant enables the Shopify integration, the merchant is the data controller and Prep Center France is the processor for fulfillment services.
  • We process only the fields needed to prepare and ship orders: order and customer identifiers, name, shipping address, email, phone, items, quantities, weight, status, carrier, and tracking.
  • Name and shipping address are required for the shipping label. Email and phone are sent to the carrier only for delivery notices and delivery issues. We do not use this data for advertising, profiling, or sale.
  • Data is received through the Shopify GraphQL Admin API and webhooks and is shared only with authorized staff, Shopify, our cloud processors, and the selected carrier.
  • The customers/data_request, customers/redact, and shop/redact requests are authenticated with HMAC. Exports are prepared for the merchant and deletion requests are completed within Shopify's required period.

  • TLS encryption in transit and encryption of databases and backups at rest
  • Two-factor authentication
  • Least-privilege access, strong passwords, and separation of test and production data
  • Access logs for Shopify protected customer data, regular monitoring, and audits

  • SP-API/Supabase keys and Amazon tokens kept in secrets vaults with rotation and restricted access
  • Logging and alerting for unauthorized access; token revocation on disconnect

  • Account data: while the account is active or as legally required (min. 5 years)
  • Billing data: 10 years
  • Marketing data: until consent is withdrawn or up to 3 years after the last interaction
  • SP-API tokens: removed/invalidated on revoke or account closure; technical logs retained ≤ 90 days
  • Shopify shipping data: while an order is being fulfilled and for no more than 180 days after it is closed, shipped, or cancelled; it is then anonymized unless a documented legal duty requires retention
  • Shopify webhook bodies and privacy exports: no more than 30 days; access logs that contain no customer content: 12 months
  • On uninstall, access tokens are removed immediately; the shop/redact webhook deletes store data according to Shopify's schedule

Our Data Processing Addendum is incorporated into the B2B Terms. It covers merchant instructions, confidentiality, security, subprocessors, transfers, rights assistance, and deletion. We also maintain DPAs with our subprocessors.

11. Cookies

We use essential, performance (analytics) and marketing cookies (with consent). See the cookie banner for details.

12. Changes

We may update this policy. The update date appears at the top of the page.

Cookie and external-content notice

We use local storage that is strictly necessary for secure authentication, fraud/security controls, language and your privacy choice. It is not used for advertising.

Analytics is off by default. If you opt in, we store a random visitor identifier, visited page path, referrer without query parameters, browser family and device type in Supabase. We do not store the full user-agent in analytics and delete these records after 13 months.

Google Tag Manager is loaded only after Analytics or Marketing consent. Google Maps, Calendly and YouTube are loaded only after External Content consent. Formspree receives contact-form data only when you submit the form; Resend processes transactional email; OpenAI processes the company analytics context only when an authenticated user invokes AI Advisor.

You can accept, reject or change optional choices at any time through “Cookie settings”. Your active choice is recorded with policy version 2026-08-15, without your account ID, browsing history, IP address or device fingerprint. We retain that evidence for 13 months.

For personal-data requests, contact contact@prep-center.eu. You may also complain to the competent data-protection authority, including the CNIL when French law applies.
