Privacy Policy: Barcove: SKU & Barcode Search

Last updated: October 24, 2026

Who we are. Barcove: SKU & Barcode Search is a Shopify app operated by Donny Automation, 355 Vista Glen Dr #1214, Plano, TX 75074, United States. Questions: donny.nguyen.business@gmail.com.

What the app does. It adds a product search box to your storefront that finds products by SKU, barcode, title, description, tags, vendor and product type, and lets you define synonym groups.

Data we access. Through Shopify's Admin API, with the read_products permission only: product titles, descriptions, tags, vendor, product type, and variant SKUs and barcodes. We do not access customer accounts, orders, addresses or payment details.

Data we store. For your store: a search index built from the product fields above; your store's myshopify domain; the access token Shopify issues to the app for your store, with the refresh token and expiry time that renew it; the synonym groups you create; a count of storefront searches per billing period and your plan name. We do not store the words shoppers type into the search box; a search is processed to return results and is not kept.

How the data is kept current and removed. Shopify's products webhooks update the index when you change a product. When you uninstall the app, or when Shopify sends a shop data erasure request, your store's index, synonym groups, counts and token are deleted. Customer data requests and customer erasure requests from Shopify are acknowledged; the app holds no customer data to return or erase.

Where data is processed. On servers hosted by Railway in the United States. Data moves between Shopify and the app over encrypted connections (HTTPS).

Sharing. We do not sell or share your data. Our sub-processors are Shopify (the platform) and Railway (hosting).

Billing. Plans are billed by Shopify through its app billing. We never see your payment details.

Your rights. Contact donny.nguyen.business@gmail.com to ask what data the app holds for your store, to correct it, or to have it deleted; uninstalling the app also deletes it. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or California, the rights given to you by the GDPR, the UK GDPR or the CCPA apply, and you may exercise them through the same address.

Changes. We post any change to this policy at this address with a new "Last updated" date.
