Shopify Navigator ("the app") is an AI assistant that guides you through the Shopify Admin interface and helps you plan new products for your store. This policy explains what information the app handles and how. We keep it simple because the app collects very little.
We do not sell your data, show ads, or run third-party analytics or trackers.
1. Information the app handles
You choose what to send. Depending on how you use the app, this may include:
- Text you type — the tasks and questions you enter, and feedback you give the assistant.
- Images you attach — optional screenshots (for "I'm stuck" help) or product photos you add to the product assistant.
- Your store's public address — an optional store URL you enter in Settings so the app can learn your store's style.
- An optional personal API key — if you choose to use your own Anthropic API key instead of the app's server.
- App preferences — your chosen language, model, and recent searches (cached so they work offline).
The app does not require an account, and does not collect your name, contacts, location, or advertising identifiers.
2. How the information is used
- The text and images you send are transmitted to Anthropic (the "Claude" AI service) to generate the guidance, product suggestions, and results you asked for.
- When you provide a store URL, the app (or its server) fetches your store's publicly available pages to build a short "style profile" (niche, colours, tone) used to tailor product ideas.
- To find matching products, the assistant may perform web searches and fetch public web pages (for example a supplier product page you paste or that it locates).
3. Where information is stored
On your device
Your settings, chosen language, cached searches, optional API key, store URL, and last store profile are stored locally in your browser/app storage (localStorage). They stay on your device and are removed when you clear the app's data or uninstall it.
On the app's server (if used)
If you use the hosted version, the server stores a store style profile derived from your store's public pages, keyed by the store URL, so it can refresh it periodically. This contains publicly-derived information about the store only. The server does not create user accounts and does not store personal identifiers. It applies rate limits and does not log the contents of your searches beyond what is needed to operate.
4. Third-party services
- Anthropic (Claude API) — processes the text/images you send to produce results. See Anthropic's privacy policy at anthropic.com/legal/privacy.
- Public web pages — your store and any product/supplier pages you reference are public sites operated by their respective owners.
5. Data retention & deletion
- Device data: clear the app's storage or uninstall the app to remove everything stored locally.
- Server store profile: profiles for stores that are not used are automatically stopped from refreshing and age out. To have a store profile removed immediately, contact us (below).
6. Children
The app is a business tool for store owners and is not directed to children under 13.
7. Security
Connections use HTTPS. Any personal API key you enter is stored only on your device and sent only to the AI service to fulfil your requests.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy; the "last updated" date above will change accordingly.
