We are committed to handling your data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable German data protection law.
2. Data We Collect
We collect only the data necessary to provide the EcomSosse service:
- Account data: Your email address and a bcrypt-hashed version of your password when you register. We never store your password in plain text.
- Shopify store data: Order data, product data, and revenue figures fetched from your connected Shopify store via the Shopify Admin API. This data is used exclusively to calculate profit metrics.

5. Data Storage and Security
All data is transmitted over encrypted HTTPS connections. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt before storage and are never stored or transmitted in plain text. API access tokens for connected platforms (Shopify, Meta, Google, TikTok) are stored encrypted in our database. Session authentication is handled via short-lived JSON Web Tokens (JWT) stored in HTTP-only cookies. We apply industry-standard security practices to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

7. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active.
