A few quick questions and you get a hosted link you can paste into Shopify App right away.
Shopify App requirements
Shopify App Store reviewers require a privacy policy URL before listing a public app. The policy must explain what merchant and customer data your app accesses through Shopify APIs, how long you retain it, and subprocessors you use. Host the policy at a dedicated URL you can update when scopes or integrations change.
What Shopify App checks before listing
- Shopify's App Store requirements checklist lists a privacy policy as required (5.E, App discovery): include it in your app listing, and link a dedicated page rather than a promotional landing page or a cloud document.
- Section 7 (Data and user privacy) asks you to include the privacy policy in your listing to build transparency and confidence with merchants.
- Every app distributed through the Shopify App Store must subscribe to the three compliance webhooks customers/data_request, customers/redact and shop/redact, and complete each request within 30 days.
- Shopify requires public apps to provide the same privacy rights for all personal data, so the policy should cover the merchant and customer data you receive, how you use and share it, and how it is deleted on request.
