GDPR+

Most-trusted GDPR Banner - 3 million page views per day

New! Adds support for Switzerland, in anticipation of the upcoming Swiss Data Protection Act.

  • Block Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Shopify Analytics until consent
  • Collect "Unambiguous, opt-in consent", to comply with GDPR
  • Export user consent history as CSV in case of a GDPR audit
  • Allow users to revoke their consent
  • Get a privacy policy, integrated with your store's theme
  • Delete Shopify's 12 nonessential cookies

Why isn't GDPR+ free?

You get what you pay for! GDPR+ is more than just a banner.

GDPR+ updates Shopify's marketing system to be opt-in, instead of opt-out, as required by GDPR, to disable Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, and Shopify Analytics until consent is granted.

The EU also requires you can prove compliance, so we store user consent in a premium encrypted database (GDPR requires user information to be encrypted).

ICO fines so far

Fines can reach 20m euros or 4% annual turnover, whichever is greater.

  • British Airways: £183 million, July 8th 2019
  • Marriot: £99 million, July 9th 2019
  • Uber: £385,000, Nov 26th 2018

Audit protection

Any data protection authority in the EU can audit your data practices, at any time, and you will be forced to provide proof of compliance.

To protect your company in the event of an audit, GDPR Banner allows you to securely export a log of every IP address that has granted consent to your store.

How to comply with GDPR on Shopify

As a small business (fewer than 250 employees) the requirements of GDPR are less stringent, but the biggest things to keep in mind, are:

  1. Review your 3rd-party apps to understand what data they use and how, and possibly reach out to them to make sure they’re GDPR compliant.
  2. Make sure your privacy policy is GDPR compliant, and ideally describe how your 3rd party apps use customer data. You can use Shopify’s privacy policy generator for this, paste the text into a new page on your store, and link to it in this banner.
  3. Be prepared to handle personal data requests. In practice this means forwarding user data deletion requests to Shopify and all your 3rd-party apps.

If you have more than 250 employees and need the services of a professional DPO, please feel free to reach out, I’d be happy to refer you to one.

Customize fonts, colors, banner message and more

  • Top or bottom of window

I have a problem with your app, and I have written you twice in the last week with no response. Can you solve my problem with your app? Thanks

Updated: Thank you. I've received your emails and read the reply to this review. I appreciate the reply and fix. Previous Review: I've emailed support team in the past, via "support link" or the gmail email address they provide in the app. I've never received a response yet. They recently included a new feature in the app, 'Enable GDPR-compliant analytics' which seems to relate to a new console error I'm receiving from our site. I get a status 400 error from file 'set_tracking_consent.json' which, according to Shopify Support, the app is failing for smarteucookinbanner.upsell-apps even when agreeing to cookie consent.

Hi, thanks for the review and for reaching out! I've been working on new feature development the last few days and got distracted. Sorry about that!
(I sent the following via email but for anyone who's curious...)

Luckily that 400 status response is just a console warning from a Shopify API that was recently released, and wasn't causing any slowdowns or errors. The banner was still displaying, waiting for consent, and tracking acceptance.

Shopify just launched their Customer Privacy API at the start of the month, which is an API that lets our banner tell 3rd party apps when a user has consented to tracking. When the API left beta, Shopify changed the API behavior to render a 400 response if you interact with it when it's not necessary.

I just deployed an update to the banner, so now we only call the API endpoint when it's necessary. You won't see that console error anymore, and fortunately you don't need to change anything so we should be all set!

Thanks again for reaching out.

Very Bad Support Team. The worst App Support i have had in that 1,5 years i am using Shopify. I have waited 3 days, get an answer, then i wrote in 1 hour back, now i am waiting since 2 days again. Lost 5 days. NO RECOMMEND!

Hi Zanio, thanks for writing a review, and I apologize we haven't met your expectations on support.

Unfortunately, we aren't able to offer custom programming, as you requested.

But as mentioned in our reply 3 days ago, you can fix the issue with your Facebook pixel by following Shopify's step-by-step instructions, here: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/promoting-marketing/analyze-marketing/facebook-pixel#remove-facebook-pixel-code-from-your-online-store
