1. About Our App
Dash Checkout (also known as DC Order Limits) is a Shopify app that enables merchants to set purchase limits on their products. This privacy policy explains how we handle data in connection with our app.
2. Our Privacy-First Commitment
We believe in radical transparency about data practices. Here is exactly what we do and do not do with customer data:
What We DO NOT Do
- No Personal Data Storage: We do not store customer names, email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, or any other personal information in our database.
- No Third-Party Data Sharing: Customer data is never shared with, sold to, or accessed by any third-party services, analytics platforms, or marketing tools.
- No AI/ML Training: Customer data is never used to train artificial intelligence models, machine learning systems, or any automated decision-making systems.
- No Data Monetization: We do not monetize, analyze, or derive insights from customer data beyond enforcing the purchase limits merchants configure.
What We DO
- In-Transit Processing Only: When a customer places an order, we access their Shopify customer ID through Shopify's API solely to check against merchant-configured purchase limits. This data is processed in transit and not retained.
- Minimal Data Storage: We store only the unique Shopify customer ID (a numeric identifier) linked to purchase limit records. This ID alone cannot identify a person without access to the merchant's Shopify store.
- Automatic Deletion: All stored data is automatically deleted when a merchant uninstalls our app.
3. Information We Collect
Merchant Information
When merchants install our app, we collect and store:
- Shop domain
- Locale preferences
This information is used solely to provide app functionality and is not shared with third parties.
Customer Data Access
To enforce purchase limits, our app accesses customer data through Shopify's API. This includes read access to customer information such as customer IDs and purchase history. This access is necessary to track and enforce the purchase limits configured by merchants.
What We Store: We store only Shopify customer IDs to track purchase limits. We do NOT permanently store personal customer information such as names, email addresses, physical addresses, or payment details. The customer IDs are used exclusively to enforce purchase limits as configured by merchants.
Payment Information
All payment processing for app subscriptions is handled by Shopify. We do not store or process payment information directly. Please reference Shopify's privacy policy for payment processing details.
4. How We Use Information
We use collected information solely for:
- Providing and maintaining app functionality
- Enforcing purchase limits as configured by merchants
- Customer support when requested
- Service improvements and bug fixes
5. Information Sharing
We do NOT sell, rent, or share data with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.
We may disclose information only when:
- Required by law or legal process
- Necessary to protect our rights or safety
- In connection with a business transfer or acquisition (with notice to affected parties)
6. Data Retention & Deletion
We comply fully with Shopify's mandatory GDPR webhooks. When a merchant uninstalls our app:
- All associated data is automatically deleted within 48 hours
- This includes merchant information and all stored customer IDs
Merchants and customers may also request data deletion at any time by contacting us at the email addresses provided above.
7. GDPR Compliance
We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) through:
- Minimal data collection (customer IDs only, no personal data)
- Automatic data deletion via Shopify's GDPR webhooks
- Clear data processing purposes
- No third-party data sharing
Users in the European Economic Area may request access, rectification, or erasure of any data we hold. Contact us at data@dashcheckout.io for any such requests.
8. Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the limited data we store. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

California residents have the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect

- Opt-out of sale of personal information (note: we do not sell personal information)
