The EU plans to actually enforce this one!
The EU plans to step up enforcement – with large fines and mandatory audit rights.
EU countries can no longer charge registration fees to data processors, so revenue to support these agencies will come from fines assessed against companies.
In the event of a data breach, your fines depend on the number of people affected, steps taken to mitigate risk, and past infringements. Fines can reach 20m euros or 4% annual turnover, whichever is greater.
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 unambiguous data access 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Updates
February 2018 - The english banner message has been updated to: "By using this site you agree to the use of cookies."
April 2018 - Updated more translations. You can see the full list here.
May 2018 - GDPR updates. We now require and store unambiguous, active consent from users.
May 2018 (2) - More GDPR updates. We now support the concept of essential and non-essential JavaScript. If a piece of JavaScript is essential to the functioning of the website, you do do not need explicit consent to run it. Non-essential JavaScript (and cookies), however, should only be run when the user explicitly opts-in to its use. We now allow users to revoke their prior consent, too.
May 2018 (3) - We now generate a URL for your site: yoursite.com/tools/privacy, where users can manage their consent status (revoke consent or opt-in). This new privacy page is integrated with your store's design.
May 2018 (4) - Your user consent log can now be exported to CSV under "Frequently asked questions."
May 2018 (5) - Shopify sets 12 nonessential cookies without consent. You can now optionally delete them.
June 2018 - The privacy page has been translated into 23 languages. Additionally, you can now completely replace our privacy page with your own, for complete customization.
GDPR Banner - EU Cookie Banner - EU Cookie Bar reviews
Great App. Very easy to use!! Highly recommended
Great App! And the only one good for GDPR with consent recording for a reasonable price. Only remark is to have the site where the consent can be managed to be able to edit the language/translate it. Absolutely recommend it!
Great app, the best so far for GDPR compliance and Ed was so helpful when i was having trouble adding code for Facebook and Google Analytics. It makes it so easy to control cookies and love that it can be customised - all for a great price! Highly recommend.
Nice app, very simple to use and easily customisable. Have installed onto 2 stores with no problems. Happy to pay for it so that we can access cookie compliance data. The only reason I haven't given it a full 5 stars is simply because there's no way for users to view the cookies and self-manage their opt-in/out...if this could be added as part of the apps development plan that would be great - very happily pay for this functionality to be completely compliant with GDPR! Thanks Upsell!!
A Great APP and awesome, friendly customer service :)

Outstanding app, but even better, outstanding support - highest recommendation!
Does everything you need it too.
This app is not GDPR compliant so do not be fooled by these garbage app.
You must register active consent to be GDPR compliant and this app does not let you do that.
This is just a cheap marketing app so you can install their garbage paid apps.
I deleted app as I found it wasn't good enough, their cookie bar is still showing so now I have 2 cookie banners on my site, be warned once you install you will not be able to get rid of it
Very easy to set up and integrates well into site. I like that you can choose to show in EU only and in many languages. Would definitely recommend.
