Data Access
We support the latest technical and organizational measures to ensure data security. These measures are updated on a regular basis to stay up to date. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that security gaps are possible when transmitting data on the Internet, and it is impossible to ensure complete protection of data from unauthorized or malicious access by third parties.
Only authorized Alpha Serve employees and subcontractors from our support and development teams have access to Customer Data. Such subcontractors are contractually bound to the same data security and privacy standards that apply to us.
Data Hosting
All the customer data is hosted, stored and processed by Shopify.
Our apps create a request for data based on parameters provided by the customer. Shopify prepares a dataset and provides it via URL to Alpha Serve. The app uses the URL to provide the requested data to the customer. Thus, Alpha Serve does not store or process your data, we just transfer it. You can find more about it here.
We store the URL only, which is valid for a week only. Currently, we are changing the approach to the data storage to make the encryption more secure and will finalise this in the nearest weeks.
Customer Payment Data
All the customer payments for the app are processed via Shopify. We are not a part of this process.
Our app does not collect any payment information about the users.
We may store your billing information (company name, country) only to fulfil the requirements of the local tax legislation. We are not able to influence this data storage.
