2. Information we collect

We collect information in three main ways:

1. Information obtained through Shopify’s APIs
2. Information you provide directly to us as a merchant
3. Limited technical information related to the operation of the App

We do not collect data directly from buyers (your customers) outside of what is provided to us via Shopify APIs, and we do not place additional cookies or tracking pixels on buyers’ browsers beyond what Shopify already uses.

2.1 Information collected through Shopify’s APIs

When you install and use the App, we access certain data from your Shopify store via Shopify’s APIs in order to provide the App’s core functionality.

Depending on how you use the App, we may access:

• Store information
  • Store name
  • Store domain
  • Store ID and other identifiers provided by Shopify
  • Store currency and locale (where exposed by Shopify)
• Product information
  • Product titles, handles, descriptions, images, and URLs
  • Product variants and options
  • Product tags (for example: badge_timer:hot, badge_timer:preorder)
  • Product inventory information (for example: inventory quantity, whether inventory is tracked, availability)
• Collection / catalog information
  • Collections and which products are in those collections (if needed to preview or apply badges/timers in certain contexts)
• Theme and customization information
  • Theme ID, published theme, and template information used to render App Blocks and Theme App Extensions
  • Information about the App Blocks placement in your theme, to display badges and countdown timers
• App-related configuration and metafields
  • App-owned metafields used to store:
    • Global badge rules (for example: new-product days, low-stock threshold)
    • Global countdown settings (for example: end date, label text, behavior after end)
    • Per-product overrides (for example: forced badges, disabled badges, per-product countdowns)

We only access and store the data that is necessary for the App to function properly and to provide support to you.

2.2 Information you provide directly

When you use the App’s admin interface, you may provide:

• Account and contact information
  • Your name (if used in support communications)
  • Your email address (if you contact us or request support)
  • Other contact details you choose to share in support tickets or messages
• Configuration data
  • Global settings and rules you define in the App (for example: badge text, thresholds, countdown text)
  • Per-product overrides and per-product countdown settings

We store this configuration data so that the App can apply your rules and render badges and countdowns correctly on your storefront.

2.3 Log data and technical information

Like many apps, we may collect limited technical information to operate, maintain, and improve the App, such as:

• Logs of API requests and responses (for example, request timestamps, response status codes, error messages)
• Information about which features are being used (for example: whether product-level countdowns are enabled, counts of configured overrides)
• Basic performance metrics (for example: response times, error rates)

Where possible, this information is aggregated or pseudonymized and is used only for monitoring, debugging, and improving the App.

3. How we use the information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

1. To provide and operate the App
   • Retrieve product and inventory data to decide when to display “New”, “Hot”, “Pre-order”, “Low stock”, or “Sold out” badges
   • Apply your global and per-product countdown settings on product pages
   • Render App Blocks (Product badges, Product countdown, Badge & timer styles) in your theme
   • Store and apply your saved configuration in metafields
2. To maintain and improve the App
   • Monitor performance and reliability
   • Diagnose and fix bugs or errors
   • Analyze aggregated usage (for example, which features are most commonly used) to improve the product
3. To provide support and communicate with you
   • Respond to your questions and support requests
   • Inform you about important changes, updates, or issues affecting the App
   • Send service-related notifications (for example, upcoming breaking changes or deprecations)

We do not sell or rent your data or your customers’ data to third parties.

4. How we share information

We may share information in the following limited circumstances:

1. With Shopify
   • The App runs within the Shopify ecosystem and uses Shopify APIs. Information shared with or obtained from Shopify is governed by Shopify’s own terms and policies.
   • Shopify may access or process data as necessary to operate its platform and services.
2. With service providers (if any)
   • We may use third-party service providers to help us operate and improve the App (for example, cloud hosting, logging, or monitoring).
   • These providers may have access to certain data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf, and they are obligated not to disclose or use it for other purposes.
3. To comply with legal obligations
   • We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (for example, a court or a government agency).
4. In the event of a business transfer
   • If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

We do not share your merchants’ customer data or your store data with third parties for advertising or unrelated marketing purposes.

5. Data retention

We retain data only for as long as necessary to provide you with the App’s services and to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

In general:

• Configuration data (metafields, settings, overrides):
  • Stored in your Shopify store as app-owned metafields for as long as the App is installed or until you delete or modify them.
  • After the App is uninstalled, metafields may remain in your Shopify store until you choose to delete them. Once removed, the App no longer has access to them.
• Log and technical data:
  • Retained for a limited period (for example, up to 12 months) for monitoring, debugging, and security purposes, then deleted or anonymized.
• Support communications:
  • Retained for a reasonable period to help us respond to ongoing or future inquiries, unless you request deletion where applicable.

If you would like us to delete specific data collected by the App (subject to our legal obligations), please contact us at 136700874@qq.com.

6. Data location and international transfers

Our App may process and store data in China, and data may be transferred across borders as necessary to provide the App.

Because Shopify is a global platform, your data may also be stored on Shopify’s servers located in various regions. For more information on how Shopify handles data, please refer to Shopify’s own privacy policy.

Where required by applicable law, we take reasonable measures to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for international data transfers.

7. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.

These measures may include:

• Using secure connections (HTTPS/TLS) for data in transit
• Limiting access to data to personnel and service providers who need it to perform their work
• Applying access controls and API permissions to limit which store data the App can access

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction and applicable privacy laws (for example, GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and others), you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:

• The right to access the information we hold about you
• The right to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• The right to request deletion of your information
• The right to restrict or object to certain processing
• The right to data portability
• The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

If you are a Shopify merchant, you can access and update much of your store information directly through your Shopify admin.

If you would like to exercise your rights in relation to information processed by this App, please contact us at 136700874@qq.com. We may need to verify your identity before we can respond to your request.

If you are a buyer (customer of a Shopify store using this App), please note that we primarily process your data on behalf of the merchant. You should contact the merchant (the store owner) directly to exercise your rights. We will support the merchant as needed in responding to such requests, in accordance with our agreement with the merchant and applicable law.

9. Children’s privacy

The App is intended for use by businesses (Shopify merchants) and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required by applicable law. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us, and we will take appropriate steps to delete such information.

10. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.

If the changes are material, we may provide additional notice (for example, by email or within the App). Your continued use of the App after any changes to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acknowledgment of the changes and your consent to abide and be bound by the updated policy.
