This policy ("Privacy Policy") describes how Plurality Digital Inc. d/b/a Shoplift (together with its affiliated companies, "Shoplift", "we", "us" and/or "our") may collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process user data when you visit https://www.shoplift.ai/ ("Website") or use our application, our API, and associated platforms (our "Application" and together with the Website, our "Services").
Please review this Privacy Policy carefully. Our Terms of Service at https://www.shoplift.ai/terms-of-service also apply to your use of the Services. This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Shoplift's Privacy Policy), and the date it was last updated is listed at the top of this page. If you have questions about our privacy practices, please contact us (see How to Contact Us).
Shoplift acts as a controller (or "business" under the California Consumer Privacy Act, the "CCPA") for Personal Information about visitors to our Website, prospective customers, and the users of merchant accounts on our Application. Shoplift acts as a processor (or "service provider") for the information our script collects from visitors to our merchants' storefronts, which we process on the merchant's behalf under our Data Processing Addendum at https://www.shoplift.ai/data-processing-addendum. See Merchant Store and Storefront Data below.
The term "Personal Information" in this Privacy Policy refers to information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to an individual. It does not include aggregated or anonymized information that is maintained in a form that is not reasonably capable of being associated with or linked to an individual.
We collect the following categories of Personal Information, with respect to the following types of data subjects:
Specifically, we collect or generate the following types of Personal Information about such individuals through our Services:
For the purposes of the CCPA, in the past 12 months, we have collected the following categories of personal information, as defined in the CCPA: identifiers; customer records information (such as name, email address, and phone number); commercial information; audio and visual information (recordings of calls and meetings); Internet or other electronic network activity information; geolocation data (approximate location derived from IP address); professional or employment-related information; and inferences drawn from the foregoing. Account log-in credentials are sensitive personal information, and we use them only to provide and secure the Services.
We have collected such Personal Information from the following sources:
You are not legally required to give us Personal Information, but without account and contact details we cannot provide the Services.
Data from Shopify APIs: With your consent, upon installing Shoplift from the Shopify App Store, Shoplift sends and receives data to and from your Shopify store using the Shopify GraphQL Admin API and Webhooks, including the Theme, Assets, Products and Orders objects, to provide core features such as A/B testing, conversion analysis, app blocks and custom sections. Shoplift cannot operate without access to those objects. Shoplift does not store customer names, email addresses, phone numbers or street addresses from order data. We process store data on your behalf as a service provider or processor under our Data Processing Addendum, and do not use it for our own advertising or sell it.
When a merchant installs Shoplift, our script runs on the merchant's storefront and collects information about visitors and their activity on the store (such as IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, referrer and campaign parameters, test and personalization assignments, and cart, checkout and order events) in order to deliver and measure tests and personalizations. Where the merchant connects other tools, such as Google Analytics or Klaviyo, the script also exchanges information with those tools on the merchant's behalf. We process this information on behalf of the merchant as a service provider or processor, under our Data Processing Addendum and the merchant's instructions. We do not use it for our own advertising or sell it. If you are a visitor to a merchant's store, that merchant's privacy policy governs, and you should direct any privacy requests to the merchant.
We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any Personal Information, to:
We retain Personal Information for as long as we deem it as reasonably necessary in order to maintain our relationship and provide you with our Services and offerings; in order to comply with our legal and contractual obligations; or to protect ourselves from any potential disputes (i.e., as required by laws applicable to log-keeping, records and bookkeeping, and in order to have proof and evidence concerning our relationship, should any legal issues arise following your discontinuance of use).
To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your Personal Information, the purposes for which we process the data, and applicable legal requirements.
Please note that except as required by applicable law or our specific agreements with you, we will not be obligated to retain your Personal Information for any particular period, and we are free to securely delete, anonymize, or restrict access to it for any reason and at any time, with or without notice to you.
Within Shoplift: Shoplift entities may disclose Personal Information to other Shoplift entities for purposes and uses consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Service Providers: Shoplift engages third parties and service providers to provide services on our behalf to our Services users, in categories including cloud hosting and infrastructure, product analytics, customer relationship management, call scheduling, customer support, email delivery, payment processing, and AI model providers. These service providers are prohibited from using your Personal Information except for these purposes, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information. Our current sub-processors for merchant data are listed in Annex III of our Data Processing Addendum at https://www.shoplift.ai/data-processing-addendum.
AI Model Providers: Some features of our Services use large language models provided by third parties, currently Anthropic and OpenAI. When a merchant uses those features, the content its users submit (such as prompts and test descriptions) and the store data the feature reads (such as product data, aggregated store data, audience segment data and test performance data) are sent to those providers to generate a response. We do not send visitor personal information collected by our storefront script to these providers. A merchant may ask us to disable AI features for its account at any time by emailing legal@shoplift.ai. Under our agreements with these providers, your content is not used to train their models, and the providers retain inputs and outputs for no more than 30 days before deleting them.
Your Employer: If you are using the Services in connection with your role as an employee or contractor of a company or other legal entity, we may share your information with such entity.
Third-Party Tools You Connect: If you use the Shoplift API with a third-party application, AI assistant, or other tool, that tool will receive the data you or it retrieve through the API, and may take actions in your account on your behalf. Those tools are not our service providers. Their collection and use of information is governed by their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for them.
Legal Requirements: Shoplift may disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (i) comply with a legal obligation or with applicable law, court order, or governmental regulation, including to respond to any government or regulatory request; (ii) to enforce or apply our Terms of Service and other agreements to which Shoplift is a party; or (iii) if we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Shoplift, our customers, or others.
Third Parties in the Context of a Corporate Transaction: We may disclose Personal Information as reasonably necessary to a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of Shoplift's assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which Personal Information held by Shoplift about our Services users is among the assets transferred.
We do not sell Personal Information in exchange for money. In the past 12 months we have shared identifiers and Internet or other electronic network activity information with our advertising partners for targeted advertising, which California law calls cross-context behavioral advertising, as described under Online Advertising below. In the same period we disclosed each category of Personal Information listed above to our service providers for the purposes described in this policy. You can opt out as described under Your Privacy Rights and Choices.
As you navigate through and interact with our Services, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including traffic data, location data, cloud logs, communication data, and information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, and browser type. We and our service providers use session-replay and chat tools that record your interactions with the Services and the content of chats. We use the following tools for automatic data collection:
A cookie is a small file placed on your device when you visit a website. We use the following types of cookies:
If you visit our Website from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we ask for your consent before setting any cookies other than strictly necessary cookies, and you may decline or withdraw consent at any time through the cookie settings on our Website.
Pages of our Services and email communications may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit us to track traffic on our Services, for example counting users who have visited certain pages or opened an email or recording the popularity of certain content.
Some content or applications, including advertisements, on our Services are served by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies, alone or in conjunction with other tracking tools, to collect information about you when you use our Services. The information collected may be associated with your Personal Information or they may collect information, including Personal Information, about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based advertising or other targeted content.
We do not control these third parties' tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly.
We use or may use the data collected through automatic data collection tools to: (a) remember information so that an individual will not have to re-enter it during their visit or the next time they use our Services; (b) provide and monitor the effectiveness of our Services, including marketing communications; (c) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and usage on our Services; (d) diagnose or fix technology problems; (e) understand browsing activities on our Services and across third-party platforms; and (f) otherwise to plan for and enhance our Services.
You can manage non-essential cookies through the cookie settings on our Website and through your browser settings, which also let you delete or block cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Services work. Our Website does not respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, but it does honor Global Privacy Control signals as described under Your Privacy Rights and Choices.
This section concerns advertising for Shoplift's own business. We do not use data collected by our storefront script from our merchants' shoppers for advertising.
We participate in interest-based advertising and use third-party advertising companies to serve targeted advertisements based on an individual's browsing history. We permit third-party online advertising networks, social media companies, and other third-party services, to collect information about an individual's use of our Services over time so that they may play or display ads on other websites, or services an individual may use, and on other devices an individual may use. The collection and use of information by third-party cookies may be limited by certain operating systems and/or browsers. Typically, though not always, the information used for interest-based advertising is collected through data collection technologies, such as cookies, embedded scripts, location-identifying technologies, and similar technology which recognize the device an individual is using and collect information, including click information, browser type, time and date the individual visited the website, AdID, approximate location, and other information. We may share a common account identifier (such as a hashed email address or user ID) with our third-party advertising partners to help identify an individual across devices. We and our third-party partners use this information to make the advertisements an individual sees online more relevant to their interests, as well as to provide advertising-related services such as reporting, attribution, analytics, and market research.
An individual can opt out of interest-based advertising from many ad networks through the sites below.
When electing to opt-out through these sites, they will place an "opt-out" cookie on your device indicating that you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements. Opt-out cookies only work on the internet browser and device they are downloaded onto. If an individual wants to opt-out of interest-based advertisements across all browsers and devices, they will need to opt-out on each browser on each device they actively use. If an individual deletes cookies on their device generally, they will need to opt-out again.
Please note that when an individual "opts-out" of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean they will no longer see advertisements from us. It means that the online ads that an individual does see from Digital Advertising Alliance participants should not be based on their interests. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties' opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs. In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about an individual's use of our Services, including for analytics and fraud prevention as well as any other purpose permitted under the Digital Advertising Alliance's principles.

The information that we collect through or in connection with the Services is transferred to and processed in the United States for the purposes described above. Shoplift may also engage service providers located outside your country of residence. The data protection laws of those countries may differ from the laws where you live. Where we transfer personal data from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland to a country that has not been found to provide adequate protection, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or another lawful transfer mechanism. You may request a copy of these safeguards from legal@shoplift.ai.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights, including by denying you services, charging different prices or providing a different level of service, except as permitted by the CCPA.
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and the UK GDPR, for individuals in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases: performance of a contract (providing the Services), consent (non-essential cookies and advertising, which you may withdraw at any time), legitimate interests (improving and securing the Services and marketing to business contacts), and compliance with legal obligations.

Shoplift may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post changes on this page and update the date at the top. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through the Services before they take effect.
Shoplift takes reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the Personal Information. However, no application, Internet, or email transmission is ever fully secure or error-free, and we do not guarantee the security of any Personal Information. You are also responsible for ensuring that your account, passwords, and API keys are protected. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained within our Services.
