1. Information We Collect

We collect and use the following types of information:

a. Personal Information

We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) from you unless you voluntarily provide it to us through communication or interactions with our website (e.g., support requests).

• Extension Usage Data: Information about how you use our extension, including the features you interact with.
• Anonymous Analytics: Data collected for performance analytics that helps us improve the extension, such as session duration, interactions with specific features, and error reports.

c. Web Request Data

Store Detector uses the webRequest API to monitor HTTP headers on specific Shopify websites to identify relevant store details such as themes and installed apps. This data is strictly non-personal and is used only to analyze Shopify stores and optimize your experience with the extension.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To store Shopify store details: Each detected Shopify store, including store themes, apps, and product information, is saved in our secure databases. This data is collected to enhance our analysis and reporting features and to provide users with historical records of the stores they have analyzed. The stored data is strictly non-personal and related only to the Shopify store's publicly available details.

3. Data Storage

Store Detector uses the Chrome Storage API to store non-personal, user-specific data such as session information and stored preferences. This data is stored locally on your browser and is not shared or accessed by third parties. If you uninstall the extension, this data will automatically be deleted.

• Host Access: We request access to Shopify store domains to provide users with detailed store analysis.

5. Third-Party Services

Store Detector does not share, sell, or trade your information with third parties. We do not integrate with any third-party analytics services that could compromise your privacy.

6. Security

We take data security seriously and implement reasonable safeguards to protect your non-personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.
