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).

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.
