Privacy policy
Public Store facts, plainly handled.
Last updated 26 September 2026
Shopalyzer works without an account. When the extension detects a Shopify Store on a page you chose to visit, it reads public Store information and submits a Snapshot anonymously. That Snapshot is not linked to a Google account or a Visitor profile. Each reading adds one to the Store's daily view count, with no Visitor identity attached to that count.
A Snapshot can include the Store domain, public identity, Shopify Signals and response headers, Base theme, detected Apps, summary Catalog and Activity figures derived from public Shopify endpoints, and the contact details, social profiles and payment methods shown on the Store's home page. These readings create and update the public Store profile on this site. Contact details, social profiles and payment methods appear there only after Shopalyzer has read the Store itself. Shopalyzer does not seed the index by crawling Stores you did not visit.
Store views are recorded in private Visit history only when you choose to sign in with Google. If you stay signed out, Shopalyzer stores the anonymous Snapshot but does not create Visit history for you. Signing in stores your Google account identifier, email, name and profile picture URL so the site can show your private history and starred Stores. Your name and picture are public when you discover a Store or appear on the Shoppers leaderboard, unless you switch anonymous on in your profile. Then others see “Anonymous shopper” and a neutral avatar; your contributions still count. Profile pictures load directly from their https URL without a referrer; Shopalyzer does not fetch or host a copy.
Google sign-in requests only the openid, email and profile scopes. Shopalyzer's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy and the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. It is used only to sign you in and provide your history, stars and public credit, and is not used for advertising or transferred to others.
Shopify Stores use arbitrary custom domains, so there is no complete list of sites the extension can request in advance. Access to all sites lets Shopalyzer check the page you are viewing automatically. On a page with no Shopify Signal, the extension exits without fetching Store endpoints, submitting a Snapshot, or recording a Visit.
The extension keeps recent card data on your device so repeat Store visits can load without fetching the Store again. A cached reading sends one small request to count the View and, if signed in, record a private Visit. The ingest service briefly stores a one-way hash of the client network address with a request count to enforce a shared rate limit. It is not attached to a Snapshot or Visitor, and expired rate-limit rows are removed.
Public Store profiles and their append-only Snapshots are retained so Shopalyzer can show when Store facts change. Private Visits, stars, and Visitors' email addresses are never shown on public Store pages. A Store first discovered while signed in credits you as “Found by”; anonymous discoveries are not credited to someone who signs in later. Shopalyzer does not sell personal information.
When a new Snapshot is stored, Shopalyzer also keeps a compressed copy of the public page markup, the identity response and its headers, and every Catalog page fetched. These raw captures are kept in private object storage without a scheduled expiry so extraction mistakes can be repaired and new Store facts can be derived later. They are removed when a Store is delisted.
Opening the interactive map requests map tiles, fonts and its style directly from OpenFreeMap. The tile provider receives your network address and browser request information to deliver the map. Shopalyzer does not send your account or private Visit history to the tile provider. You can also explore the same Stores in the plain list below the map.
This website uses a self-hosted instance of Umami to measure page views and to record sessions of how pages are used, such as clicks, scrolling and navigation, so we can find broken or confusing pages. Umami does not use cookies, and text typed into form fields is masked and never recorded. This data stays on infrastructure we operate and is not used for advertising. The extension itself contains no analytics or session recording.
You can use the extension without signing in, sign out at any time from your profile, and switch anonymous on to hide your name and picture publicly. Removing the extension deletes its on-device cache.
To delete your account, including your Google identifier, email, name, picture URL, Visit history and stars, email us from the address on the account. Store owners can also ask for a Store to be delisted, which removes its raw captures.
