Saturation Scout – Privacy Policy

Saturation Scout (“the App”) enables Shopify merchants to analyze the saturation or popularity of products on Amazon, AliExpress, and their own store, and to sync or import these products into their Shopify store (“the Service”). This Privacy Policy explains 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

From Your Shopify Account (upon installation):

  • Store Information – Store name, email, store owner name, store currency, store plan

  • Product Data – Product titles, images, descriptions, variants, and inventory (to run saturation analysis and sync products)

  • Order Data (Optional) – May be accessed if saturation is based on order metrics (used only if enabled by merchant)

  • Theme Permissions – To embed or display product insights (if required)

From External Marketplaces (via Merchant Authorization):

  • Amazon or AliExpress Data – Product ASINs, titles, seller counts, pricing, and review metrics (pulled via scraping or public APIs where permitted)

From You or Other Users with Admin Access:

  • Actions performed in the App interface (e.g., sync, check saturation, import product)

From Store Visitors (only if saturation info is exposed on frontend – optional):

  • IP address, browser, geolocation, device type, and interactions (if merchant chooses to show public saturation indicators)

We collect data via your Shopify account, public marketplace pages, or the following technologies:

  • Allow filtering, viewing, exporting of saturation metrics

  • Communicate with you about sync statuses, errors, or updates

  • Monitor app usage to optimize performance and provide support

We do not use your data or customer data for marketing, reselling, or any unrelated purposes.
