“If you are located in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, your Personal Data is received by our Irish affiliate, Shopify International Ltd. Your information is then sent to other Shopify locations and to service providers who may be located in other regions, including Canada (where we are headquartered) and the United States. When we send your Personal Data outside of the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, we do so in accordance with applicable law. If you are in the EEA or Switzerland, when we send your Personal Data to any other Shopify entity outside the EEA or Switzerland, it is transferred in accordance with Shopify's Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs). Shopify's BCRs have been approved by European data protection authorities and reflect Shopify's commitment to adequately protect Personal Data regardless of where the information resides. If you are in the UK, when we send your Personal Data to any other Shopify entity outside of the UK, EEA or Switzerland, it is transferred pursuant to Standard Contractual Clauses in place between Shopify entities, and may rely on the European Commission's adequacy decision in relation to Canada to support transfers from Shopify International Limited to its Canadian-registered corporate parent Shopify Inc. Where Shopify transfers your Personal Data to any third parties (for example, when we send this information to our Subprocessors ), such transfers are protected by contractual commitments in the form of Standard Contractual Clauses where appropriate. Finally, while we do what we can to protect your information, we may at times be legally required to disclose your Personal Data (for example, if we receive a valid court order). For information about how we respond to such orders, please review our Guidelines for Legal Requests .”

If you are a merchant operating a Shopify-powered store, and you close the store, stop paying your subscription fees, or we terminate your account, we retain store information for two years before we begin the deletion process. When we process your information as a service provider or processor for the merchant, the merchant, not Shopify, decides how long your information is retained.”

“We believe you should be able to access and control your Personal Data no matter where you live. Depending on how you use Shopify, you may have the right to request access to, correct, amend, delete, port to another service provider, restrict, or object to certain uses of your Personal Data. We will not charge you more or provide you with a different level of service if you exercise any of these rights. Please note that a number of these rights apply only in certain circumstances, and all of these rights may be limited by law. Where Shopify acts as processor or service provider of your Personal Data on behalf of Shopify merchants, you need to directly contact the merchant you interacted with. For more information about how merchants collect and use your data when you visit and make purchases in their stores, review the specific merchant's terms and privacy policy. In some cases, we may offer tools and assistance to merchants to help fulfill these requests. If you are a merchant, consumer, partner, website visitor or other individual that Shopify has a direct relationship with or for whom Shopify processes your Personal Data as a Data Controller, please submit your data subject request through the privacy portal . We may require you to provide additional documentation to verify your identity and may use third parties to assist us with this process.

We will also retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our policies. If you stop using our services or if you delete your account with us, we will delete your information or store your information in an aggregated and anonymized format.
