Privacy Policy — ShopSpy for Shopify

Last updated: June 11, 2026

ShopSpy for Shopify ("the extension") is built to be private by design. It runs entirely inside your own browser. We do not operate any server, database, or backend.

What data we collect

None. The extension does not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal data or browsing activity. There is no account, no login, and no tracking.

How the extension works

When you click the extension icon on a Shopify store, it reads publicly available Shopify data so it can show you what the store is selling:

• The window.Shopify object already present on the page (theme, currency, shop domain).
• Publicly available HTML, scripts, and network resource URLs on the page, to detect the theme and the apps the store uses.
• The store's public /products.json endpoint, to summarize products, price range, and recently launched / discounted items.

All of this information is already public — anyone can view it without logging in. The extension only reads it and displays the result to you, locally, in the popup.

Where your data goes

Nowhere. All processing happens on your device, in the extension popup. Results are shown to you and are not saved or sent anywhere. The extension does not contact any server we control.

The only network requests the extension makes are directly to the Shopify store you are viewing (to read its public /products.json). These requests are made without your cookies or credentials.

Permissions and why we need them

• activeTab / scripting — to read the public Shopify data on the tab you are currently viewing, only when you click the icon.
• <all_urls> host permission — Shopify stores run on many different domains, so the extension must be able to read public store data on whatever store you open. It is used only to fetch the store's public /products.json and read public page data.

Third-party services

The extension uses no analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking services.
