Introduction
Zapiet – Pickup + Delivery “the App” provides store pickup and delivery services “the Service” to merchants who use Shopify to power their stores. This Privacy Policy describes how personal information is collected, used, and shared when you install or use the App in connection with your Shopify-supported store.
PERSONAL INFORMATION THE APP COLLECTS
When you install the App, we are automatically able to access certain types of information from your Shopify account, this includes:
- Read and modify orders
This is required to pull in the order information from your Shopify Account into the App and is critical to its functioning. Order information is used for reporting, updating of tags / shipping addresses and for sending email notifications to your bricks and mortar stores. We receive the entire order information from Shopify for initial process but only store the minimum required data in the Apps database. This includes the following details; customer name, customer email, customer phone, customer address, order total, currency code, pickup/delivery/shipping date, time and location, order name, external order ID.
If you are using one of our integrations with HubBox, Deliv, Exportify or Zapier please see the section titled “Integrations” for additional information on how your customers order information is used. - Read and modify draft orders
This is required to allow a merchant the ability to easily convert a standard draft order into a pickup, delivery or date based shipping order. The App uses and stores draft order information identically to standard orders. - Read products
Required to allow merchants to specify which products are available from which outlets within the App. It’s also used to display product images within the App. We only store the minimum required information on your products which includes; product ID, product name and thumbnail. - Read and write carrier services (shipping rates)
Required in order for the App to generate pickup, delivery and shipping rates within your shops checkout process. - Read and write themes
Required in order to embed the Apps code into your themes. This streamlines the installation process by removing manual file uploading and code modifications. - Script tags
Used for legacy users of the App where we dynamically loaded the Apps code via a script tag rather then embedding directly into the theme. - Read shop information
Shopify Accounts linked to an app are provided basic information about the shop by Shopify. This includes personal information such as the shop’s address, email, phone, location, locale and store owners name and email address. This information is needed to customize the application based on the shop details, as well as to help identify customer service requests. - Integrations
- Exportify
If you are using our Exportify integration we send very minimal information. In fact we only send Exportify a list of filtered Shopify order ID numbers. Exportify will then retrieve the full order information from Shopify for producing your exports. Please be sure to make yourself aware of Exportify’s privacy policy if you decide to use this integration. - Zapier
If you are using our Zapier integration we will retrieve and send Zapier a copy of the full order information. Please be sure to make yourself aware of Zapier’s privacy policy if you decide to use this integration.
Additionally, we collect the following types of personal information from you and/or your customers once you have installed the App:
- Log and device data
When you use Zapiet, our servers automatically record information (“log data”), including information that your browser sends whenever you visit our App. This log data may include your web address you came from or are going to, your device model, operating system, browser type, unique device identifier, IP address, mobile network carrier, and time zone or location. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you’re using and its settings. For example, different types of information are available depending on whether you’re using a Mac or a PC, or an iPhone or an Android phone. To learn more about what information your device makes available to us, please check the policies of your device manufacturer or software provider. - Cookies and tracking technologies
We use automatically collected information and other information collected on the App through cookies and similar technologies to: (i) personalize our App, such as remembering a users information so that the user will not have to re-enter it during a visit or on subsequent visits; (ii) provide customized advertisements, content, and information; (iii) monitor and analyze the effectiveness of the App and third-party marketing activities; (iv) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed; and (v) track your entries, submissions, and status in any promotions or other activities on the Service.

MINORS AND CHILDREN’S POLICY
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. Our App is not directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under the age of 16 without obtaining parental consent. If you are under 16 years of age, then please do not use or access the App at any time or in any manner.

The App is not intended to be used by minors, and is not intended to be used to post content to share publicly or with friends.

Please be aware that, although we offer this deletion capability, the removal of content may not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of that content or information.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION SECURE?
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.

This includes, for example, firewalls, password protection and other access and authentication controls. We use SSL technology to encrypt data during transmission through public internet, and we also employ application-layer security features to further anonymize Personal Data.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or store on the Service, and you do so at your own risk. We also cannot guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

We will share information we collect about you, including personal information, in the following ways:
- With third party service providers, agents, or contractors
We use other companies, agents or contractors (“Service Providers”) to perform services on our behalf or to assist us with providing services to you for example, we may engage Service Providers to provide services such as marketing, advertising, communications, infrastructure and IT services, to provide customer service and to analyze and enhance data (including data about users’ interactions with our service). These Service Providers may have access to your personal or other information in order to provide these functions.

We may engage in a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, reorganization, or similar transaction or proceeding that involves the transfer of the information described in this policy. In such transactions, customer information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. If we are acquired by or merged with another company, if we sell or transfer a business unit or assets to another company, in the unlikely event of a bankruptcy proceeding, or as part of any other similar business transfer, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur. - Aggregate or De-identified Information
We may disclose aggregate, anonymous, or de-identified information about users for marketing, advertising, research, compliance, or other purposes.
BEHAVIOURAL ADVERTISING
Interest based advertising is the collection of data from different sources and across different platforms in order to predict an individual’s preferences or interest and to deliver to that individual, or his/her computer, smart phone or tablet, advertising based on his/her assumed preference or interest inferred from the collection of data pertaining to that individual or others who may have a similar profile or similar interests.
We work with a variety of third parties to attempt to understand the profiles of the individuals who are most likely to be interested in the Zapiet products or services so that we can send them promotional emails, or serve our advertisements to them on the websites and mobile apps of other entities.
These third parties include: (a) advertising networks, which collect information about a person’s interests when that person views or interacts with one of their advertisements; (2) attribution partners, which measure the effectiveness of certain advertisements; and (3) business partners, which collect information when a person views or interacts with one of their advertisements.
In collaboration with these third parties, we collect information about our customers, prospects and other individuals over time and across different platforms when they use these platforms or interact with them. Individuals may submit information directly on our Sites or on platforms run by third parties, or by interacting with us, our advertisements, or emails they receive from us or from third parties. We may use special tools that are commonly used for this purpose, such as cookies, beacons, pixels, tags, mobile advertising IDs, flash cookies, and similar technologies. We may have access to databases of information collected by our business partners.
The information we or third party collect enables us to learn what purchases the person made, what ads or content the person sees, on which ads or links the person clicks, and other actions that the person takes on our Sites, or in response to our emails, or when visiting or using third parties’ platforms.
We, or the third parties with which we work, use the information collected as described above to understand the various activities and behaviors of our customers, Site visitors and others. We, or these third parties, do this for many reasons, including: to recognize new or past visitors to our Sites; to present more personalized content; to provide more useful and relevant ads – for example, if we know what ads you are shown we can try not to show you the same ones repeatedly; to identify visitors across devices, sales channels, third party websites and Sites, or to display or send personalized or targeted ads and other custom content that is more focused on a person’s perceived interest in products or services similar to those that we offer.
Our interest-based ads may be served to you in emails or on third-party platforms. We may serve these ads about our products or services or send commercial communications directly ourselves or through these third parties.
Visitors may opt out of receiving interest based advertising by advertising networks that may be delivered to them on our platform and other websites by visiting the following websites: http://www.aboutads.info/consumers; and http://www.networkadvertising.org. These features will opt a Visitor out of many – but not all – of the interest-based advertising activities in which we or third parties engage.
DO NOT TRACK POLICY
California law requires that operators of websites and online services disclose how they respond to a Do Not Track signal. Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features. Most of these features, when turned on, send a signal or preference to the website or online service that a user visits, indicating that the user does not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret Do Not Track signals, we do not currently respond to Do Not Track signal. We continue to work with the online industry to define a common understanding of how to treat Do Not Track signals.
In the meantime, you may opt out of receiving interest based advertising from advertising networks that may be delivered on our platform and other websites by visiting the following websites. If you want to opt out of this online behavioral advertising, visit the following sites: https://www.aboutads.info/consumers and https://www.networkadvertising.org.
This will opt you out of many – but not all – of the interest-based advertising activities in which we or third parties engage. Choices you make may be browser and device specific. If you delete your cookies or use a different browser or a different computer or device, you may need to update your opt-out choices. Other third-party Sites provide visitors with the ability to opt-out of receiving interest-based ads on their Sites that you need to control through your settings on that Site. For example, to opt out of Google’s use of your online behavior for advertising purposes, visit Google’s Ad Settings page.
