    1. Introduction

    Welcome to BlumacawTech.

    BlumacawTech (“BlumacawTech”, “BMT”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a technology business based in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, specializing in Shopify applications, ecommerce development, consulting, and technology services.

    We are committed to protecting the privacy, confidentiality, and security of personal information entrusted to us by our customers, merchants, business partners, affiliates, website visitors, and individuals interacting with our services.

    This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, access, use, process, store, disclose, retain, and protect personal information in connection with our products and services. Our business activities include:

    1. Shopify Applications
      • BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing: a Shopify application offering wholesale pricing, customer-specific pricing, registration and approval workflows, bulk ordering, order management, invoicing, customer access controls, and other B2B functionality.
      • BMT Request Quote, Hide Price: a Shopify application enabling merchants to restrict access to prices, products, collections, and pages, receive quotation requests, send proposals, and manage quotation-to-order workflows.
    2. Shopify Agency and Development Services: custom Shopify store development, website design, implementation, integrations, migration, customization, maintenance, technical support, and related consulting services.
    3. Affiliate and Partner Program: programs allowing approved individuals, agencies, developers, consultants, and other partners to refer merchants to eligible BlumacawTech products and earn commissions according to applicable program terms.
    4. Website and Business Operations: our website, product documentation, demonstrations, contact forms, support channels, sales activities, marketing communications, and other business interactions.

    This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed through these activities unless a separate service-specific agreement or privacy notice applies.

    By using our services, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy. Where applicable law requires consent for particular processing activities, we seek that consent separately.

    2. Who We Are and Our Responsibilities

    BlumacawTech may handle personal information in different capacities depending on the service and the circumstances.

    2.1 When BlumacawTech acts as a data controller

    We generally determine the purposes and methods of processing personal information relating to:

    • Visitors to blumacawtech.com.
    • Merchants registering for or using our applications, insofar as the information relates to our own business relationship with those merchants.
    • Individuals contacting our sales or support teams.
    • Prospective and existing agency clients.
    • Affiliates, referral partners, and program applicants.
    • Business representatives, suppliers, and professional contacts.
    • Our own marketing, contractual, financial, security, and administrative activities.

    For these activities, BlumacawTech generally acts as a data controller or equivalent entity under applicable privacy laws.

    2.2 When BlumacawTech acts as a data processor

    When merchants use our Shopify applications to manage information relating to their customers, buyers, wholesale applicants, or orders, the merchant generally determines the purposes for which that information is processed. BlumacawTech processes such information on behalf of the merchant to deliver the functionality they have configured.

    Similarly, when our agency develops, maintains, or manages a Shopify website for a client, we may access or process the client’s customer information on the client’s instructions. In these circumstances:

    • The merchant or client generally acts as the data controller.
    • BlumacawTech generally acts as a data processor or service provider.
    • We process personal information in accordance with the relevant service instructions, agreements, and applicable law.
    • We do not acquire ownership of a merchant’s or client’s customer information.

    Some processing activities, such as our independent security logging and legal compliance, may be undertaken by BlumacawTech in its own capacity.

    2.3 Merchant responsibilities

    Merchants and agency clients remain responsible for their own customer-facing privacy notices, lawful collection of personal information, obtaining necessary consents, and responding to customer privacy requests. We provide reasonable assistance with requests involving information we process on their behalf.

    3. Information We Collect

    The information we collect depends on how you interact with BlumacawTech. We seek to collect and process only information reasonably necessary for the relevant business purpose.

    3.1 Merchant and Shopify store information

    When a merchant installs or uses one of our Shopify applications, we may receive information through Shopify’s APIs and authorized application permissions. This may include:

    • Store name, Shopify domain, and business contact information.
    • Store owner or authorized staff name, email, phone number, and address. For BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing this includes the name, email address and Shopify admin language of each staff member who opens the app, which Shopify provides when they do.
    • Shopify store identifiers and configuration settings.
    • Product, variant, collection, and inventory information.
    • Customer records, customer tags, and customer groups.
    • Pricing rules, discounts, price lists, and catalog information.
    • Shopify Markets, currencies, languages, and translations.
    • Theme information, store pages, and relevant storefront settings.
    • Order, draft order, shipping, and payment-term information.
    • Application configurations and operational settings.
    • Technical information necessary for app installation, authentication, operation, support, and troubleshooting.

    Access to particular information depends on the application’s granted Shopify permissions and the functionality used by the merchant. An application’s ability to access a category of Shopify information does not necessarily mean that all information in that category is copied or permanently stored by BlumacawTech.

    3.2 Customer and wholesale buyer information

    Where necessary to provide merchant-enabled features, our applications may process information about customers, prospective wholesale buyers, and other individuals interacting with a merchant’s store. Examples include:

    • Full name and contact details.
    • Email address and phone number.
    • Billing and shipping addresses.
    • Company name and business contact information.
    • Customer identifiers, tags, account status, and approval status.
    • Tax registration, VAT, or other business identification numbers.
    • Wholesale registration form responses.
    • Customer-specific pricing or purchasing eligibility.
    • Product selections, requested quantities, and order details.
    • Shipping preferences and quotation requests.
    • Business documents voluntarily submitted through registration forms.
    • Communications related to registration, quotations, or orders.

    Some application functionality may also involve technical data such as IP addresses, browser or operating system information, and approximate geolocation where available through Shopify or relevant technical services. We process this information only as appropriate for the configured application features, security, troubleshooting, and authorized merchant instructions.

    3.3 Website visitor information

    When you access our website, we may collect:

    • IP address.
    • Browser type and version.
    • Device and operating system information.
    • Pages visited and navigation activity.
    • Referral URLs and traffic sources.
    • Approximate geographic location derived from technical information.
    • Website interactions and analytics events.
    • Cookies and similar identifiers.
    • Information voluntarily submitted through website forms or communications.

    We use this information to operate, secure, maintain, and improve our website and understand how visitors interact with our content.

    3.4 Sales, support, and communication information

    When you contact BlumacawTech, we may collect:

    • Your name, email address, and other contact information.
    • Business or organization details.
    • Shopify store URL or other relevant website addresses.
    • Product inquiries and requested features.
    • Support tickets, email correspondence, and chat messages.
    • Screenshots, recordings, documents, or logs you voluntarily provide.
    • Meeting information and technical requirements.
    • Feedback, survey responses, or testimonials.

    We use this information to respond to inquiries, resolve issues, provide support, maintain business relationships, and improve our services.

    3.5 Payment and financial information

    For subscriptions, agency services, or affiliate transactions, we may process:

    • Billing name and contact details.
    • Business billing address.
    • Tax identification and invoice information.
    • Subscription plan and billing status.
    • Transaction amounts and payment status.
    • Invoice and payment reference numbers.
    • Affiliate commissions and payout records.

    Shopify app subscription payments are generally administered through Shopify’s billing infrastructure. Affiliate payments may be processed through third-party payment services, including PayPal or Wise. Agency payments may be handled through separately agreed payment providers or banking arrangements. We do not generally need to collect or store complete payment card details when payments are handled by these providers.

    4. Privacy Practices for BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing

    Application: https://apps.shopify.com/blumacawtech

    BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing enables merchants to operate wholesale and retail workflows within their Shopify stores.

    4.1 Information processed

    Depending on merchant configuration, the application may process:

    • Customer profiles, tags, and account status.
    • Product and variant information.
    • Pricing rules, discount settings, and customer-specific prices.
    • Wholesale registration and approval information.
    • Minimum and maximum order requirements.
    • Bulk-order CSV/XLSX files and uploaded purchase-order information.
    • Order and draft order records, and order details buyers add in the cart (such as a purchase-order number, delivery date, notes, or an attached file).
    • Shipping and payment-term settings.
    • Invoice, receipt, and order-document information.
    • Tax exemption information and business tax identifiers. When a merchant enables the tax number field, the number a buyer enters in the cart is saved on their order and printed on their invoice.
    • Quote requests buyers send through the store, including the details and files they attach.
    • Relevant customer communications.

    4.2 Purposes of processing

    We process this information to enable merchants to:

    • Display appropriate wholesale and customer-specific prices.
    • Apply volume discounts and pricing rules.
    • Restrict storefront access where configured.
    • Review and approve wholesale registrations.
    • Apply customer and company purchasing rules.
    • Process bulk ordering workflows.
    • Support quotations and draft orders.
    • Generate business documents.
    • Configure shipping, payment, and tax-related functionality.
    • Manage customer groups and wholesale purchasing experiences.
    • Provide technical support and troubleshoot application functionality.

    4.3 Wholesale registration forms

    Where merchants enable registration forms, applicants may submit business and personal information directly through the merchant’s storefront. Merchants determine the form fields and the purposes for which that information is collected.

    Where document uploads are supported, submitted files are stored in Google Cloud Storage. Passwords collected by registration forms are encrypted at rest.

    Where a merchant turns on a CAPTCHA for a registration form, the form loads Google reCAPTCHA with the merchant’s own reCAPTCHA keys, and Google receives technical information about the visitor (such as their IP address and browser) to tell people from automated submissions.

    We encourage merchants to collect only information necessary for their wholesale approval process.

    4.4 Order documents and invoicing

    Where enabled, the application may process order details to generate invoices, receipts, packing slips, and related documents. These documents may contain customer names, business details, addresses, transaction information, or tax identifiers. The merchant controls the business content and intended recipients of these documents.

    4.5 Email communications

    The application may send merchant-configured transactional communications, including registration confirmations, approval notifications, payment-term notices, and order documents. Recipients and content are determined by the merchant.

    Delivery goes through our built-in sender (delivered via Google’s Gmail service), or, where the merchant connects one, through their own email provider: Klaviyo, Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid, Mailgun, Brevo, Amazon SES, Elastic Email, Zoho ZeptoMail, Netcore, or their own SMTP server. Where a merchant connects its own email provider, that provider processes recipient addresses and message contents under the merchant’s arrangements with it.

    4.6 Google user data (Google Drive sync)

    Merchants can optionally connect the application to their own Google Drive so that invoice documents are saved to a folder in their Drive. If a merchant connects Google Drive:

    • We request the drive.file scope, which only allows access to files and folders this application creates; we cannot see, read, or change anything else in the connected Drive. We also receive the account’s email address, which is shown in the application’s settings to label the connection.
    • We use this access solely to create a “BlueMacaw Invoices” folder and upload the merchant’s own invoice documents to it. Documents synchronized through this feature are stored in the merchant’s connected Google Drive; BlumacawTech does not retain separate copies of them for the Drive integration.
    • The Google credential (refresh token) is stored encrypted and is never shared. Google user data is not sold, not disclosed for advertising, not used for unrelated purposes or to train generalized artificial-intelligence models, and not read by humans except with the merchant’s explicit permission for support, or where required for security or by law.
    • Merchants can disconnect at any time in the application’s settings, which revokes and deletes the stored credential, or from their Google account permissions. Uninstalling the application deletes the stored credential as well.

    Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

    5. Privacy Practices for BMT Request Quote, Hide Price

    Application: https://apps.shopify.com/bmt-request-quote-hide-price

    BMT Request Quote, Hide Price enables Shopify merchants to control storefront visibility and receive, manage, and respond to buyer quotation requests.

    5.1 Information processed

    Depending on how the merchant configures the application, it may process:

    • Merchant and Shopify store information, including the name and email of staff who use the app.
    • Customer account and customer tag information.
    • Storefront access and pricing visibility rules.
    • Product, collection, and variant details.
    • Buyer names, email addresses, and contact information.
    • Company and shipping information submitted in quote requests, and files buyers attach to them.
    • Product quantities and requested quotation details.
    • Customer-specific prices relevant to preparing quotations.
    • Merchant proposals and quotation adjustments.
    • Quote acceptance or rejection information.
    • Draft order information.
    • Email communications and related delivery information.
    • Limited technical information necessary to operate access-control features.

    5.2 Purposes of processing

    We use this information on the merchant’s behalf to:

    • Hide product prices and purchasing options from selected visitors.
    • Restrict access to products, collections, pages, or storefront content.
    • Apply customer account, tag-based, or other configured access rules.
    • Enable buyers to request quotations.
    • Generate and manage quotation records.
    • Calculate or retrieve applicable buyer-specific pricing.
    • Enable merchants to prepare and send proposals.
    • Generate quotation documents and PDFs.
    • Support online acceptance of merchant proposals.
    • Convert accepted quotations into Shopify draft orders.
    • Send merchant-authorized transactional communications.

    5.3 Quotation form submissions

    When a buyer submits a quotation request through a participating merchant’s store, the information supplied is processed for that merchant’s quotation and sales workflow. The merchant determines the information requested, the use of that information, and the subsequent commercial relationship with the buyer.

    Files attached to quote requests are stored in a private Google Cloud Storage bucket. BlumacawTech does not independently use a merchant’s quotation submissions to market unrelated products or services to those buyers.

    5.4 Quotation emails and connected services

    Quotation notifications, proposals, and related transactional emails are delivered through our built-in sender (delivered via Google’s Gmail service) or an email provider configured by the merchant: Klaviyo, Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid, Mailgun, Brevo, Amazon SES, Elastic Email, Zoho ZeptoMail, Netcore, or their own SMTP server. Where these providers are used, relevant contact details and message content are transmitted to the provider to deliver the requested communication.

    5.5 Storefront access controls

    The application may evaluate Shopify customer account information, customer tags, storefront context, or other configured criteria to determine whether a visitor may access particular information or pages. This activity is performed to enforce the merchant’s storefront configuration.

    BlumacawTech does not independently use such access-control information to create advertising profiles of individual shoppers.

    5.6 Moving settings from BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing

    Merchants who use both of our applications can move their page locks and quote settings from BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing to this application. Only rules and settings are transferred; quote requests and buyer information are not.

    6. Privacy Practices for Shopify Agency Services

    BlumacawTech provides Shopify agency, ecommerce development, and related technology services to business customers. These services may include:

    • Shopify website development and design.

    6.1 Information collected from agency clients

    During inquiries, onboarding, development, and ongoing service delivery, we may collect:

    • Contracts, quotations, invoices, and payment information.

    6.2 Access to client Shopify stores

    With authorization from the client, we may access their Shopify administration, development stores, hosting environments, applications, APIs, and other systems required to deliver the agreed services. We use this access only for authorized project activities, including implementation, testing, troubleshooting, maintenance, and support.

    Where feasible, access is provided through delegated staff, collaborator, or other role-based mechanisms rather than sharing primary account credentials. We do not intentionally access unrelated information outside the authorized scope of work.

    6.3 Client customer information

    During development, migration, integration, or troubleshooting, we may encounter or process personal information belonging to the client’s customers. This may include:

    • Customer names and contact information.
    • Order and transaction records.
    • Shipping addresses.
    • Customer account identifiers.
    • Business customer information.
    • Other records necessary for an approved project.

    Such information remains under the control of the client, subject to applicable agreements and law. We do not use client customer databases for independent marketing, affiliate referrals, or unrelated business activities.

    6.4 Third-party applications and integrations

    Clients may ask us to configure third-party Shopify apps, email services, payment systems, logistics platforms, inventory systems, or other integrations. These third parties may independently collect and process information according to their own agreements and privacy policies.

    We encourage clients to review the privacy practices and access permissions of third-party services before approving their use. Our responsibility for such services is determined by the relevant development agreement and applicable law.

    6.5 Development, testing, and project records

    We may retain project documentation, source code, configuration records, technical logs, and communications as required to deliver the services and fulfill agreed support obligations.

    Where reasonable and practical, test environments should use anonymized, fictional, or limited datasets rather than unnecessary production personal information.

    After project completion, we review ongoing access requirements and remove unnecessary permissions or copies of personal information, subject to contractual, operational, or legal retention requirements.

    6.6 Confidentiality

    We treat non-public business information and personal information obtained from clients as confidential. Access is limited to authorized personnel and service providers who require the information for legitimate project purposes.

    We do not disclose a client’s non-public commercial information or customer information to unrelated parties without authorization or another lawful basis. Additional confidentiality obligations may be established through project agreements or nondisclosure agreements.

    7. Privacy Practices for Our Affiliate and Partner Program

    Program: https://blumacawtech.com/affiliate

    BlumacawTech operates an affiliate and partner program through which eligible individuals and organizations can refer merchants to participating BlumacawTech products.

    7.1 Affiliate application information

    When an individual or business applies to join our affiliate program, we may collect:

    • Applicant name.
    • Email address.
    • Business or organization information supplied during follow-up.
    • Website, promotional channel, or professional profile information voluntarily provided.
    • Communication preferences.
    • Application review and approval records.
    • Affiliate account or referral identifiers.

    We use this information to evaluate applications, communicate with applicants, and administer affiliate relationships.

    7.2 Referral and attribution information

    To administer the program, we may process:

    • Unique affiliate identifiers.
    • Referral links and tracking codes.
    • Referral click information.
    • Cookie or similar attribution identifiers.
    • Referral source information.
    • Referred merchant identifiers or store information.
    • Installation or conversion status.
    • Eligible subscription and commission information.
    • Referral dates and attribution periods.
    • Records used to detect duplicate or fraudulent referrals.

    Our published program describes a 30-day referral attribution window. When someone follows an affiliate’s link, app.blumacawtech.com sets a referral cookie that lasts 30 days, subject to browser settings and technical limitations, and passes the referral code on to our Shopify App Store listing.

    We run the program on PartnerDock, our affiliate platform. If the referred store installs BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing, we send PartnerDock the store’s Shopify domain and the referral code so it can credit the affiliate. PartnerDock can also match referrals using Google Analytics data from our App Store listing: page views that carry a referral code, and installs.

    Referral information is used to attribute eligible merchant acquisitions, administer commissions, and prevent referral fraud.

    7.3 Affiliate commission information

    For approved affiliates, we may collect or generate:

    • Affiliate account identifiers.
    • Referred merchant or conversion records.
    • Commission eligibility information.
    • Subscription-based commission calculations.
    • Amounts earned and paid.
    • Payment status and transaction references.
    • Tax and payment documentation where required.

    This information is used for accurate commission calculations, payment reconciliation, fraud prevention, accounting, and contractual compliance.

    7.4 Affiliate payouts

    Affiliate payments may be facilitated through third-party providers, including PayPal and Wise. Depending on the payment method, relevant information may include the affiliate’s name, payment account identifier, email address, business details, and other information required by the payment provider.

    Payment providers may process additional information for identity verification, compliance, fraud prevention, and payment delivery under their own privacy policies. BlumacawTech does not require access to an affiliate’s payment account password.

    7.5 Sharing referral and conversion information

    To operate the affiliate program, limited referral, conversion, and commission information may be available to authorized BlumacawTech personnel and approved affiliate tracking or payment service providers.

    Affiliate dashboards or communications may show information necessary to understand referral performance and earned commissions. Where referral performance information relates to identifiable merchants or individuals, disclosure is limited to what is necessary, authorized, and permitted by applicable law.

    We do not authorize affiliates to access unrelated merchant customer databases, order details, or confidential store information.

    7.6 Affiliate communications

    We may contact applicants and approved affiliates regarding:

    • Application review and approval.
    • Program onboarding.
    • Referral activity.
    • Commission statements.
    • Payment information.
    • Program changes.
    • Product updates and promotional resources.
    • Compliance and account-related matters.

    Promotional communications are subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements.

    7.7 Affiliate responsibilities

    Affiliates are independently responsible for complying with applicable privacy, advertising, and consumer protection laws in their promotional activities. They must provide any required disclosures about affiliate relationships and obtain necessary consent for tracking technologies they independently operate.

    Affiliates must not collect, disclose, or misuse merchant information through unauthorized methods.

    8. How We Use Personal Information

    Across our applications, agency services, website, and affiliate program, we use personal information for the following purposes, as applicable.

    PurposeExamples

    Account administrationManaging merchants, agency clients, affiliates, and authorized users

    Business administrationManaging contracts, partners, service providers, and operational records

    We do not use merchant customer data obtained through Shopify apps or agency projects for unrelated independent marketing purposes. We may use aggregated or de-identified operational information to improve our services, provided it cannot reasonably be used to identify individuals.

    10. Cookies, Analytics, and Tracking Technologies

    BlumacawTech uses cookies and similar technologies where necessary for website operation, analytics, security, and affiliate attribution.

    10.1 Essential cookies

    Essential cookies or equivalent technologies support website and application functionality, session management, security, and other necessary technical operations. Inside our applications’ admin pages, for example, cookies remember which notices a merchant has dismissed.

    10.2 Analytics

    Our website uses Google Analytics to help us understand website traffic, navigation patterns, and overall usage. Google Analytics may process information such as page visits, device characteristics, technical identifiers, and approximate geographic information. The Shopify App Store listing for BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing also uses Google Analytics; that listing data is exported to Google BigQuery, where PartnerDock can read it for affiliate attribution (Section 7.2).

    We use analytics to understand and improve our website and services. You can block analytics cookies in your browser or with Google’s Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

    10.3 Affiliate referral cookies

    Our affiliate program uses referral attribution mechanisms, which include a referral cookie set on app.blumacawtech.com and unique tracking links. The published referral attribution window is 30 days, and the cookie expires after 30 days.

    The purpose of these mechanisms is to associate qualifying merchant conversions with eligible affiliates. Affiliate tracking is not intended to provide access to a merchant’s customer records or confidential commercial information.

    10.4 Browser storage used by our applications on storefronts

    On stores that use our applications, the storefront scripts keep a few items in the shopper’s browser storage: the items in a quote request before it is sent, which locked pages the shopper has unlocked with a passcode, and whether the shopper is signed in (including their Shopify customer ID), so that the right prices and access rules apply.

    10.5 Third-party technologies on our website

    Certain website features involve third-party technologies: the tawk.to chat widget, fonts served by Google Fonts, videos stored on Google Cloud Storage, YouTube videos (loaded only when you choose to play one), a review badge from Letsmetrix, store logos from logo.dev, Google Calendar booking links, and Google Apps Script, which receives what you enter in our website forms. These third parties may set cookies or process information such as your IP address in accordance with their own privacy policies and our configured use of their services.

    10.6 Cookie choices

    You can generally manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain technologies may affect functionality, including affiliate referral attribution.

    We do not use personal information collected through our services for unrelated third-party behavioral advertising.

    11. Information Sharing and Service Providers

    We share personal information only where reasonably necessary to provide services, operate our business, comply with law, or fulfill authorized instructions. Depending on the service used, recipients include the following.

    11.1 Shopify

    We integrate with Shopify to access merchant-authorized store information, maintain applications, and implement functionality. Shopify’s address service suggests address formats when a buyer types an address into a quote form, and Shopify Sidekick can read our application data when a merchant asks it about their store. Shopify independently processes information under its applicable privacy policies and platform agreements.

    11.2 Cloud hosting and databases

    Our applications run on Google Cloud Platform: application hosting and document rendering (Cloud Run), file storage for registration documents, quote attachments, and order files (Cloud Storage), webhook message processing (Pub/Sub), background jobs (Cloud Tasks), and operational logging (Cloud Logging). Their databases are hosted on MongoDB Atlas, a managed MongoDB database service. Our website is hosted on Firebase Hosting, a Google service.

    11.3 Email and communication providers

    Our applications use Google’s Gmail service for built-in email sending. tawk.to provides the support chat inside both applications’ admin pages and on our website.

    Merchants may also connect their own email delivery providers: Klaviyo, Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid, Mailgun, Brevo, Amazon SES, Elastic Email, Zoho ZeptoMail, Netcore, or their own SMTP server. These services process relevant sender information, recipient information, and communication contents as required to deliver communications.

    11.4 Google Drive

    Google Drive processes merchant documents and related connection information where merchants enable optional invoice synchronization in BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing (Section 4.6).

    11.5 Analytics providers

    Google Analytics processes usage information from our website and from the BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing App Store listing, and Google BigQuery stores the exported listing data, subject to applicable configuration and privacy controls.

    11.6 Affiliate and payment providers

    PartnerDock, our affiliate platform, receives referred stores’ Shopify domains and referral codes and can read our App Store listing analytics (Section 7.2). PayPal, Wise, or other authorized payment providers process information required for payment delivery.

    11.7 Security and content delivery

    Google reCAPTCHA processes technical information about visitors to registration forms where a merchant enables it (Section 4.3). When a shopper uploads a CSV or XLSX order file on a store using BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing, the spreadsheet library is loaded from jsDelivr, a public content delivery network, which receives the shopper’s IP address and browser information. Google Apps Script receives what visitors enter in our website forms.

    11.8 Agency delivery and business providers

    Depending on a client project, authorized development personnel, hosting providers, collaboration platforms, code repositories, testing services, and integration providers may access information needed to perform their assigned services. Where these providers process personal information on our behalf, we seek to apply appropriate contractual and security safeguards.

    11.9 Professional advisers and legal authorities

    Information may be disclosed to legal advisers, accountants, auditors, regulators, courts, or government authorities where reasonably necessary and legally permitted or required.

    11.10 Business transfers

    If BlumacawTech undergoes a merger, restructuring, acquisition, or sale of relevant business assets, necessary information may be transferred subject to applicable confidentiality, privacy, and legal requirements.

    11.11 Restrictions on disclosure

    • We do not sell merchant customer databases, quotation submissions, agency client customer records, or Google Drive user data.
    • We do not disclose client customer information to affiliates for unrelated marketing.
    • We do not authorize service providers to use personal information for unrelated purposes contrary to our applicable agreements and privacy obligations.

    12. Data Storage and International Transfers

    BlumacawTech operates from India and serves merchants, customers, and business partners in multiple countries.

    Both applications and their databases run on Google Cloud Platform and MongoDB Atlas in India (Mumbai). Email sending, file handling, and related services for BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing run on Google Cloud Platform in the United States.

    Depending on the services and providers used, personal information may be processed or accessed from other countries. This may occur through cloud hosting, technical support, Shopify integrations, connected email providers, agency services, and payment platforms.

    Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we implement or arrange appropriate measures, which may include:

    • Contractual data protection commitments.
    • Applicable standard contractual clauses or other approved transfer mechanisms.
    • Access restrictions and confidentiality obligations.
    • Technical and organizational security controls.
    • Other legally recognized transfer safeguards.

    Specific data locations and subprocessors may vary by product, configuration, and client agreement. We comply with applicable restrictions on international transfers where they apply.

    13. Information Security

    We maintain technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure. Depending on the service and system, safeguards include:

    • Encryption in transit: secure communication protocols, including TLS, for supported application and website connections.
    • Protection of credentials: encryption at rest for stored connected-account tokens, API keys, email-provider credentials, and passwords collected by registration forms.
    • Restricted access: access to production environments and sensitive information is limited to authorized personnel with legitimate operational needs.
    • Authentication and permissions: use of appropriate authentication mechanisms and access permissions for administrative and connected services.
    • Infrastructure controls: use of cloud platform security features and operational safeguards appropriate to the systems involved.
    • Operational monitoring: review of technical events, errors, and security-related activity to identify and address relevant issues.
    • Confidentiality: personnel and authorized service providers are expected to protect information accessed through their work.
    • Data minimization: we seek to avoid collecting and retaining information that is unnecessary for the intended functionality.

    Despite these safeguards, no method of transmission, storage, or processing can be guaranteed to be completely secure. If we become aware of a personal data breach, we will investigate and take appropriate steps, including notifying affected parties and authorities where required by law or applicable contractual obligations.

    14. Data Retention and Deletion

    We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, subject to legal, operational, and contractual requirements. Retention practices differ depending on the type of information and service.

    14.1 Shopify application information

    BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing: uninstalling the application triggers an automated deletion of the data we store for that store, including stored connected-account credentials. Files uploaded through the store (registration documents, quote attachments, and order files) are deleted when Shopify sends the store’s data erasure request. The exceptions are:

    • Merchant and staff contact details, used to send the uninstall follow-up and answer the merchant if they reply. We keep them for four weeks after uninstall, then delete them automatically; reinstalling during that period keeps them.
    • A record of the store’s Shopify domain and whether it has used its free trial, so that each store receives one free trial.
    • A record that the store uninstalled the application and when, kept for our usage reporting.

    BMT Request Quote, Hide Price: uninstalling ends the application’s access to the store immediately. When Shopify sends the store’s data erasure request, about 48 hours after uninstall, we delete everything we hold for that store, including quote requests, buyer information, attached files, settings, and email-provider credentials. Nothing is retained.

    14.2 Shopify privacy requests

    We support Shopify’s mandatory privacy-compliance processes, including:

    • Customer data access requests.
    • Customer data deletion requests.
    • Shop data deletion requests.

    A customer data deletion request removes that customer’s records from our applications, including their registrations, documents, tax exemptions, quote requests, and attached files. We respond to applicable Shopify privacy webhooks and complete required actions within Shopify’s prescribed timelines, subject to legally permitted or required exceptions.

    14.3 Agency project information

    Agency information may be retained for the duration of the project, agreed maintenance or support periods, and any additional period reasonably necessary for contractual, accounting, security, or legal purposes. Client-controlled data and system access are managed in accordance with the relevant project agreement and authorized instructions.

    14.4 Affiliate information

    Affiliate application and account information may be retained while an application is under review or an affiliate relationship remains active. Commission, transaction, tax, and payment records may be retained for applicable accounting, auditing, dispute resolution, and legal compliance purposes. Referral cookies expire after 30 days.

    14.5 Website and support information

    Website analytics, inquiry records, and support communications are retained for periods reasonably necessary for their purposes. Our applications’ operational logs are kept for 30 days and then deleted.

    14.6 Legal retention exceptions

    Certain information may need to be retained where required to comply with applicable laws, resolve disputes, maintain financial records, prevent fraud, or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. Backup copies may be removed through established backup rotation processes unless earlier removal is required by applicable law.

    When information is no longer necessary, we delete or de-identify it using appropriate methods.

    15. Individual Privacy Rights

    Depending on your jurisdiction and the circumstances of processing, you may have rights relating to your personal information. These may include:

    • Access: request confirmation of whether we process your personal information and obtain access to relevant information.
    • Correction: request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
    • Deletion: request erasure of personal information where applicable.
    • Portability: request an export or transfer of eligible information.
    • Restriction: request restrictions on certain processing activities.
    • Objection: object to eligible processing, including certain direct marketing activities.
    • Withdrawal of consent: withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.
    • Marketing preferences: opt out of promotional communications.
    • Complaint: submit a complaint to an appropriate supervisory or regulatory authority where permitted.
    • Other applicable rights: exercise additional rights available under relevant privacy legislation.

    15.1 Shopify customer requests

    If you are a customer of a merchant using a BlumacawTech application, we recommend contacting that merchant first. The merchant generally controls the personal information processed through its Shopify store and determines how customer privacy requests should be handled.

    We assist the merchant with applicable access, correction, and deletion requests. You may also contact BlumacawTech if you are unable to identify the relevant merchant or require help identifying the appropriate process.

    15.2 Agency customer requests

    If your personal information is held in a Shopify store or system operated by an agency client, please contact the relevant client. We assist clients with applicable requests involving information processed on their behalf.

    15.3 Merchant, affiliate, and website visitor requests

    Merchants, agency clients, affiliates, and website visitors may contact us directly at admin@blumacawtech.com. Please describe the request and provide enough information for us to locate the relevant records.

    We may request reasonable information to verify your identity or authority before processing a request. We respond within the timeframes applicable under relevant laws.

    16. Regional Privacy Disclosures

    BlumacawTech serves customers internationally and recognizes that privacy rights and obligations differ by jurisdiction.

    16.1 European Economic Area and United Kingdom

    Where the EU GDPR or UK GDPR applies, relevant individuals may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and withdrawal of consent. Individuals may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the appropriate supervisory authority.

    Our legal bases for relevant processing are described in Section 9. Where required, international transfers are subject to appropriate legal safeguards.

    16.2 California and other United States jurisdictions

    Where applicable US state privacy laws apply, eligible individuals may have rights to know or access personal information, request correction or deletion, obtain portable copies, opt out of certain processing, or limit certain uses of sensitive information.

    In the context of the processing described in this policy, BlumacawTech does not sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use merchant customer data for unrelated targeted advertising, and we do not discriminate against individuals for exercising applicable privacy rights.

    Where a legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference applies to processing we conduct, we will honor it as required by applicable law.

    16.3 India

    BlumacawTech is based in India and is subject to applicable Indian privacy and information-technology laws. Where applicable, we recognize obligations under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and associated rules as the relevant provisions come into force.

    These may include requirements relating to transparency, lawful processing, consent and permitted uses, security, retention, grievance handling, and individual rights. We will update our practices and notices as necessary to meet applicable obligations.

    Individuals may submit privacy questions or grievances to the contact identified in this policy.

    16.4 Other jurisdictions

    Individuals in other countries may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws. We will review and respond to relevant requests in accordance with the laws applicable to the particular processing activity.

    17. Marketing and Business Communications

    BlumacawTech may communicate with merchants, prospective customers, clients, affiliates, and other business contacts regarding our services. Communications may include:

    • Product onboarding and service information.
    • Feature and product announcements.
    • Relevant business opportunities.
    • Agency proposals and consultations.
    • Affiliate program updates.
    • Support and customer-success communications.
    • Information about service changes.

    Where required, we obtain appropriate consent before sending promotional messages. Recipients may opt out of marketing communications using the unsubscribe method provided in the message or by contacting us.

    For BMT B2B Wholesale Pricing, we send the merchant two emails of our own: a welcome email when the app is installed, and a single follow-up when it is uninstalled. They go to the store’s email and to the staff members who have used the app, in the language they use Shopify in where we can. Each one says how to opt out: reply “unsubscribe” and we will not contact you again.

    Opting out of marketing does not necessarily prevent essential security, transactional, contractual, or administrative communications.

    We do not add buyers whose information is processed through a merchant’s store to unrelated BlumacawTech marketing lists merely because they used that store.

    18. Automated Processing and Decision-Making

    Our applications perform automated operations based on merchant-defined business rules and service configurations. Examples include:

    • Selecting customer-specific pricing.
    • Applying wholesale discounts.
    • Enforcing minimum order quantities.
    • Controlling storefront visibility.
    • Determining which price or product information is displayed.
    • Generating quotation calculations.
    • Checking relevant order conditions.
    • Calculating affiliate referral attribution and commissions.

    These operations are intended to perform merchant-configured business functions or administer our services. Merchants remain responsible for the business rules and purchasing conditions they configure.

    We do not use personal information obtained from Shopify merchants or agency clients to independently make unrelated decisions about individuals’ creditworthiness, employment, or other similarly significant personal matters. Where an automated activity becomes subject to additional legal obligations, we will provide relevant notices and controls as required.

    19. Children’s Privacy

    BlumacawTech’s website, Shopify applications, agency services, and affiliate program are primarily intended for businesses, merchants, and professional users. They are not designed or marketed specifically to children.

    We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information for our independent marketing or affiliate activities. Where information relating to minors is processed through a merchant’s store, the merchant is generally responsible for determining the lawful basis and required safeguards for that processing.

    If you believe we have collected children’s personal information inappropriately, please contact us so that we can review the matter.

    20. Third-Party Websites and Services

    Our website, documentation, applications, and communications may contain links to external websites and services. Examples include:

    • Shopify.
    • Google and Google Drive.
    • Affiliate and payment providers.
    • Email service providers.
    • Third-party Shopify applications.
    • External demonstration stores.
    • Scheduling and communication platforms.

    These services may have their own privacy policies, contractual terms, and information-processing practices. BlumacawTech is not responsible for independent third-party privacy practices except to the extent required by applicable law or an agreement governing our use of those services.

    We encourage users to review the relevant third-party privacy notices before providing personal information.

    21. Changes to This Privacy Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect:

    • Changes in our products and services.
    • New Shopify applications or integrations.
    • Changes to agency or affiliate operations.
