13. Veriflied App for Shopify and Gorgias
This section applies to merchants who install the Veriflied app from the Shopify App Store, and to its optional Gorgias integration. Veriflied ApS is the data controller for the app.
13.1 What the app does
Merchants submit photos — typically photos a customer has sent with a return or damage claim — and Veriflied analyses whether the photo shows signs of AI generation or manipulation.
13.2 Data we process
- ·Store identity: your myshopify.com domain, an access token issued by Shopify so the app can run inside your admin and process subscriptions, and your plan and usage counts. We do not request access to your orders, customers or products.
- ·Photos you check: the uploaded image (processed and not retained in original form), a reduced-size preview, a thumbnail, the heatmap, the result (probability, verdict) and, if you entered one, an order reference.
- ·Gorgias (optional): if you connect Gorgias, we store an OAuth token (or an API key you provide) for your Gorgias account. When a customer sends a message, we receive the ticket and message identifiers, download the image attachments of that message to check them, and post the result back as an internal note and tag. We do not store ticket text, customer names or contact details.
- ·Usage events: which screens are opened and which actions are taken in the app (for example "check started", "plan viewed"), used to improve the app. No tracking cookies and no advertising.
13.3 Where it is processed
Image analysis runs on servers in the European Union (Microsoft Azure, Sweden Central). Application hosting and the database are provided by Vercel and Supabase as listed in Section 6. Photos are transmitted over TLS, are never used to train models, and are never shared with your customers or any third party.
13.4 Retention
Results, previews and thumbnails are kept while the app is installed so you can reopen past checks. When you uninstall the app, Shopify notifies us and we delete your store's data within 48 hours. Disconnecting Gorgias in the app's settings revokes the token we hold.
13.5 Customers' rights
Individuals whose photos were checked may contact the merchant, who can request deletion of specific checks by emailing contact@veriflied.dk. We respond to Shopify's GDPR data-request and redaction webhooks automatically.
13.6 Security
Access tokens and API keys are stored on encrypted infrastructure and are never shown in the app interface. Webhooks are verified using Shopify's HMAC signatures and a per-store secret for Gorgias.
14. Contact Us
