In short

The app prepares the figures for your quarterly One-Stop-Shop (OSS) return from your Shopify orders. For that it stores per order only the order number, destination country, dates and the amounts per VAT rate — no names, addresses, e-mail addresses or payment data.

What is processed and when

Data Source Retention
Order number, destination country (country code only), order, payment, fulfilment and cancel dates, charged currency, VAT class (e.g. OSS, domestic, B2B), whether a VAT ID or tax exemption was present (not the ID itself), net, VAT and gross amounts per VAT rate Shopify Admin API (read_orders, read_customers for the tax-exempt flag), at install and on every order change Until uninstall (deleted 48 h later)
Refunds: date, amounts per VAT rate, refund note Shopify Admin API Until uninstall
Your settings (OSS registration, OSS VAT ID for the PDF header) and quarters marked as filed with their totals Your input in the app Until uninstall
Shop domain, access token (session) Shopify Until uninstall
Export log: which file was downloaded for which quarter (counts only, no order data) App Until uninstall
Access log: when the app read or displayed orders (shop, action, count — no order data) App 12 months, deleted with the shop on uninstall

The order address is read only to determine the destination country; only the country code is stored. Downloaded files are generated on request and not stored.

Legal basis

Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract with the merchant). Where personal data of end customers is involved, the merchant is the controller and we are the processor (Art. 28 GDPR); Shopify's data processing terms for apps apply in addition.

Hosting and recipients

The app runs on Railway in the EU (Netherlands data centre; server and PostgreSQL database). Server error reports are e-mailed to us (Resend) without any shop or customer reference. A daily encrypted (AES-256) database backup is stored with Cloudflare R2 in the EU (EU jurisdiction), kept 7 days. Exchange rates are fetched from the European Central Bank; no shop data is sent. There are no other recipients; no analytics, advertising or tracking services.

Deletion

On uninstall the session is deleted immediately; 48 hours later Shopify sends shop/redact and all data of the shop is deleted; it leaves the backups within 7 days after that. Customer requests (customers/data_request, customers/redact) are acknowledged — there is nothing to provide or erase because no customer data is stored.

Your rights

Access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection under Art. 15–21 GDPR; the right to complain to a supervisory authority. Requests to the address above.
