Data Protection Practices

Minimal Data Process

To "process only the minimum personal data required to provide app functionality to merchants," viaGlamour only collects and uses personal data in a way that is limited to the purpose for which it was collected. This means that the app should only collect the minimum amount of personal data necessary to provide the desired functionality to merchants, and should not collect or use personal data for any other purposes.

Here are some examples of how we minimize the amount of personal data it processes:

Identify the specific features and functions that are being offered to merchants, and determine which personal data is necessary to provide those features and functions. For example, if the app is providing a payment processing service, it may need to collect personal data such as name, address, and payment information in order to process transactions.

Collect personal data directly from merchants rather than from third parties. This helps to ensure that the data being collected is accurate and up-to-date, and reduces the risk of collecting unnecessary or irrelevant data. When viaGlamour ships customer orders we're only being provided the information directly from Shopify's Fulfillment Requests.

Provide merchants with clear and concise information about what personal data is being collected and why. This helps merchants to understand the purpose of the data collection and make informed decisions about whether to provide their personal data. We maintain a privacy policy that contains a list of vendors that use our personal data, shipping carriers mainly, that use the customer data to complete their services.

Implement security measures to protect personal data from unauthorized access or misuse. This can include measures such as encrypting personal data, implementing secure authentication protocols, and regularly monitoring for and addressing security vulnerabilities. viaGlamour stores all of the customer data exclusively on Shopify with MFA enterprise logins to prevent unauthorized misuse.

By following these best practices, an app can effectively process only the minimum personal data required to provide app functionality to merchants, while still providing a high-quality and useful service.

Inform merchants what personal data you process and your reason for processing it.

viaGlamour maintains a privacy policy that lists how we use your personal data.

Limit your processing of personal data to the stated purposes.

viaGlamour does not save irrelevant information from customer orders that isn't directly used for shipping. For example, viaGlamour could use the first and last name of a customer order to purchase postage but ignore irrelevant details like the billing address which isn't used for neither postage purchases or the completion of deliveries.

viaGlamour receives GDPR requests from merchants and merchant customers through the mandatory webhooks.

Respect and apply customer decisions to opt out of any data sharing such as a ‘data sale’ or similar concepts.

viaGlamour does not engage with sales of any customer data.

Automated decision-making

viaGlamour not not engage with automated decision-making services that may try to ingest customer data.

Apply retention periods to make sure that personal data isn’t kept for longer than needed.

viaGlamour removes customer information after one year from the date it's been shipped. This information helps viaGlamour fight fraudulent disputes if any occur between shipping carriers and merchant storefronts.

Encrypt data at rest and in transit.

viaGlamour doesn't transit information unencrypted outside of Shopify. All customer information is received and stored on Shopify.

Encrypt your data backups.

viaGlamour doesn't create data backups that aren't already managed by Shopify which are all encrypted by default.

Keep test and production data separate.

viaGlamour maintains different authentication, users, and staff permissions for testing and production apps.

Data loss prevention strategies

viaGlamour maintains a data loss prevention strategy in the access of staff that can export or control customer data.

Limit staff access to protected customer data.

viaGlamour staff are granted limited view access to customer data to fulfill orders.

Require strong passwords for staff accounts.

viaGlamour uses Shopify's MFA to secure staff accounts.

Keep an access log to protected customer data.

viaGlamour uses Shopify Logs to maintain data trails of staff members accessing shipping data.
