Consent management
Shopify Customer Privacy
By Shopify
Use the native privacy controls where the store and script stack are genuinely simple.
The verdict
Is Shopify Customer Privacy right for you?
Choose it if...
- Simple stores using Shopify-native pixels
- Limited-market consent requirements
- Merchants minimising app costs
Look elsewhere if...
- Complex regulatory footprints
- Teams requiring consent logs, scanning and advanced customisation
Adding a CMP is not automatically safer; the native route can be enough when all tracking uses Shopify-compatible consent signals and the market footprint is limited.
