NextApps Product Audit — Privacy policy

Effective 28 October 2026

NEXTAPPS.TECH (SMC-PRIVATE) LIMITED operates this service from Pakistan. Business address: Ikram House JLEELABAD, Multan 66000, Pakistan. Contact contact@nextapps.tech for privacy questions, access, correction or deletion requests.

Information used to provide the service

With your Shopify authorization, we use read_products access to read product IDs, titles, handles, descriptions, image presence, custom SEO fields, status and update dates, together with store identity and product count. We store titles and derived audit facts, scores, recommendations and your preferences. We do not store full product descriptions or image files and do not request customer, order or payment records.

Shopify authentication can provide staff account identity, name, email, locale and authorization information. We use this information for secure access and account support, not advertising. Access and refresh tokens are encrypted before database storage. Support messages contain the information you choose to send us; do not send passwords or tokens.

Purposes and sharing

We process information to provide the audits you request, authenticate access, maintain your preferences, secure the service and respond to support and legal requests. We process merchant product data on the merchant’s instructions. Where applicable, service administration is necessary to perform our agreement with you, and security and support serve our legitimate interests. We do not sell personal data or use product data for advertising or AI training. This Free release has no AI processing, marketing trackers or automated email reports.

Shopify supplies authentication, APIs and platform services. Hostinger hosts the application and database. The current application server is in Singapore; Hostinger’s plan details identify its website-backup location as Mumbai, India. Our support and administration are in Pakistan. Information can therefore be processed outside your country. Hostinger also processes connection and security metadata, such as IP addresses, timestamps and technical logs, to provide hosting. See its data processing addendumand privacy policyfor provider processing and transfer information. We may disclose data when required by law or necessary to investigate abuse and protect the service. We do not promise a particular data-residency jurisdiction.

Retention and removal

We keep at most two catalog snapshots for each store. Daily maintenance removes snapshots inactive for more than 30 days, compact audit summaries older than 90 days, optional product-quality history older than 30 days, report previews and email-job records older than 30 days, and hashed webhook receipts older than seven days. Some of these record types support features that are unavailable in the Free release. Settings and authentication records are kept while needed for an installed app.

When Shopify delivers a verified uninstall or shop-redaction webhook, app-held store sessions, preferences, audits and related monitoring and reporting records are deleted. Our daily database backup job is configured to retain seven days of snapshots. Backups can temporarily contain removed records until rotation. Hostinger’s separate platform backups and logs follow its own retention arrangements; the seven-day application snapshot period is not a promise about provider backups. Recovery must preserve deletion requests and must not reactivate obsolete authorization sessions. We retain support or legal records only as needed for the request and applicable obligations.

Your choices and rights

You control installation, audit settings and every product edit. You may stop access by uninstalling the app in Shopify Admin. Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or a copy of your personal data, and may complain to your local data-protection authority. Contact us using the email above. We may need to verify your authority to act for the store before fulfilling a request. Shopify’s required privacy webhooks are supported; no customer records are held by this app. The service is intended for business merchants, not children.

Changes

We will update this page and its effective date when processing changes. Material new features, processors or uses will be disclosed before activation. Your Shopify platform data is also subject to Shopify’s privacy terms.
