Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
AppHero develops Shopify applications that help merchants improve their online stores, including Attrac, Free Gift and Upsell. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and protect personal information when merchants use our apps and services. In this policy, "AppHero", "we", "us" and "our" refer to AppHero.
Our Data Processing Addendum forms part of this policy.
Information We Collect
When you install and use an AppHero application, we may access the following information through Shopify:
- Store information, such as your store name, domain, plan and contact details.
- Customer information, such as a customer's name or email address, where an app feature needs it.
- Order information, such as the products and amounts in an order.
- Product information, such as product titles, prices, images and inventory.
- Store configuration settings you create in our apps, such as offers, popups, gifts and upsells.
We only access the data needed for our apps to work.
How We Use Information
We use this information to:
- Operate our apps and provide their features.
- Display the promotions, offers and other features you configure on your store.
- Provide customer support.
- Improve the performance and reliability of our apps.
- Maintain the security of our services.
We do not sell merchant or customer data.
Shopify Platform
Our apps receive data through Shopify's APIs and in line with Shopify's platform policies. As a merchant, you control what data our apps can access through Shopify's permission system when you install them.
Data Storage and Security
Data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure. We protect it with measures that include:
- Encryption in transit using HTTPS/TLS.
- Access controls that limit who can reach the data.
- Security monitoring and logging.
Sub-Processors
We use Amazon Web Services (AWS) for cloud hosting and infrastructure. Our service providers are contractually bound to keep data confidential and to apply appropriate security measures.
International Data Transfers
Data may be processed or stored outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including in the United States. Where applicable, we use appropriate safeguards for these transfers.
Data Retention
We keep data only for as long as it is needed to provide our services. When you uninstall an AppHero application, its access to your Shopify data is revoked immediately and the data we store is scheduled for deletion.
Your Rights
Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
