Privacy Policy — TagGenie: AI Visual Tag & SEO

Last Updated: October 20, 2026

1. Overview

TagGenie: AI Visual Tag & SEO (“TagGenie”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) provides an automated e-commerce catalog tagging, categorization, image SEO alt-text generation, and metadata enrichment application designed specifically for merchants on the Shopify platform.

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the store data entrusted to us. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, process, and protect store data when you install and use our Shopify application.

2. Information We Collect

To provide automated visual tagging and catalog optimization, TagGenie accesses the following store data via the Shopify Admin API:

Product Catalog Information: Product titles, descriptions, categories, product types, and existing tags.
Product Media: Public image CDN URLs and media IDs required for computer vision analysis and SEO alt-text updates.
Store Metadata: Your myshopify.com store domain and OAuth authentication tokens required to sync tags and metafields to your store.

No End-Consumer Personal Data Collected: TagGenie does NOT collect, store, or process any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from your store’s customers (such as customer names, customer email addresses, physical mailing addresses, credit card numbers, or order histories).

3. How We Use Store Information

We use the catalog data solely for the following business purposes:

Generating descriptive, high-intent product tags, categories, and facet metafields using computer vision models.
Generating accurate, SEO-optimized image alt text for accessibility and search engine ranking.
Maintaining an audit log of tags applied by TagGenie to allow merchants to perform one-click rollbacks and undos.
Tracking your store’s monthly tag quota and credit usage as chosen in your subscription plan.

4. Third-Party AI Processing

TagGenie utilizes Google Cloud Vertex / Gemini API to analyze product images and extract structured visual attributes. Image data is transmitted over TLS-encrypted HTTPS connections solely for real-time analysis. Product image pixels and catalog titles are not sold, shared, or utilized by third parties for independent advertising purposes.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

We retain your store settings and tag audit history only for as long as TagGenie remains installed on your store.

When you uninstall the application, Shopify automatically dispatches an app/uninstalled webhook. Upon receipt, our systems automatically delete all active session tokens and schedule store audit history for permanent purging.

6. GDPR & CCPA Compliance

TagGenie fully complies with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We support and actively respond to all mandatory Shopify compliance webhooks:

customers/data_request: Fulfills data access requests.
customers/redact: Processes customer record deletion requests.
shop/redact: Permanently removes all store records within 48 hours of an uninstallation request.

7. Security

We employ industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical defenses to safeguard your store information. All data in transit is encrypted using modern TLS encryption, and access to internal databases is restricted via multi-factor authentication and strict firewall policies.
