Privacy Policy

Bagel Pre Order app

Last updated: 4/1/2026

Bagel (“Bagel”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) provides a Shopify application that automates pre-order workflows using Shopify inventory data and merchant purchase orders.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and delete information when merchants install and use the Bagel Shopify application.

This policy applies to Shopify merchants who install Bagel through the Shopify App Store.

1. Information We Collect

When a merchant installs Bagel, we access certain Shopify store data through Shopify's APIs. We only request the minimum data required for the app to function.

Merchant Store Information

We may collect basic store information including:

  • Store domain (e.g. storename.myshopify.com)
  • Shopify store ID
  • App installation details
  • Merchant contact email (if provided by Shopify)

This information allows us to operate and support the application.

Product Data

Bagel accesses product information necessary to manage pre-order workflows. This may include:

  • Product titles
  • Product IDs
  • Product quantities
  • Product SKUs
  • Product availability status

This data allows the application to identify products and apply automated availability logic.

Inventory Data

Bagel accesses Shopify inventory information in order to manage pre-orders and stock transitions. This may include:

  • Inventory quantities
  • Inventory location information
  • Inventory updates

Inventory data is used to determine when a product becomes out of stock and when pre-orders should be enabled.

Order Data

Bagel may access limited order information required to calculate available preorder quantities. This may include:

  • Product SKUs within orders
  • Quantities ordered
  • Order status

Order data is used only to track inventory consumption and maintain accurate preorder limits. Bagel does not process payments or access payment information.

Purchase Order Data

Merchants may upload purchase order data through CSV files inside the app. These files may contain:

  • Product SKU
  • Purchase order quantity
  • Expected delivery information
  • Optional preorder messaging

This data allows Bagel to calculate how many units can be sold on pre-order while inventory is in transit.

2. How We Use Merchant Data

We use the collected data only to operate and improve the Bagel application. This includes:

  • Syncing Shopify inventory data
  • Calculating available preorder quantities
  • Enabling automated transitions between in-stock, preorder, and out-of-stock states
  • Displaying preorder messaging on the storefront
  • Enabling bulk SKU management through CSV uploads
  • Maintaining app dashboards and reports

Bagel does not sell, rent, or share merchant data with advertisers or third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Customer Data

Bagel does not collect or store personal customer information, such as:

  • Customer names
  • Email addresses
  • Shipping addresses
  • Payment information

The application only accesses limited order information necessary for inventory calculations.

4. Data Storage and Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect merchant data. These measures include:

  • Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS)
  • Secure cloud infrastructure
  • Restricted internal access to production systems

Merchant data is stored only for the purpose of providing the Bagel service.

5. Data Retention

Merchant data is retained only while the merchant is actively using the Bagel application.

If a merchant uninstalls the app, store data associated with that merchant will be deleted or anonymized within a reasonable timeframe unless retention is required for security or legal purposes.

6. Data Deletion and Shopify GDPR Webhooks

Bagel complies with Shopify's required data protection webhooks. This includes:

  • customers/data_request
  • customers/redact
  • shop/redact

When Shopify sends one of these requests, we delete or anonymize the relevant data as required by Shopify's platform policies.

7. Third-Party Services

Bagel may use secure third-party infrastructure providers to host and operate the application. These providers process data only for the purpose of operating the service and are required to follow appropriate security standards.

8. Merchant Rights

Merchants may request access to or deletion of their data at any time. To request data deletion or inquire about stored data, contact:

support@bageldigital.xyz

We will respond to such requests within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Compliance with Shopify Terms

Bagel complies with:

  • Shopify Partner Program Agreement
  • Shopify API Terms of Service
  • Shopify data protection requirements for public apps

We access only the data necessary to provide the features described in the app listing.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. When changes are made, the updated policy will be published at this page with a revised effective date.
