Data controller and processor roles
You remain the data controller for your customers’ personal data. BackupMaster acts as a data processor, processing data only as needed to deliver the backup service.Data Processing Agreement (DPA)
The Data Processing Addendum covers how BackupMaster processes personal data on your behalf.Personal data in backups
Backups may contain personal data such as customer names, emails, and order details. This data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and in transit using TLS. For full details on how BackupMaster secures your data, see Security overview.Data deletion on uninstall
When you uninstall BackupMaster, your backup data is permanently deleted after a retention period. See Data retention for details.Shopify compliance webhooks
Shopify requires all apps to handle mandatory compliance webhooks. BackupMaster subscribes to the following webhooks:- customers/data_request — when a customer requests their stored data, BackupMaster processes the request and provides the relevant data
- customers/redact — when a store owner requests deletion of a customer’s data (including GDPR right to erasure requests), BackupMaster removes the specified customer data from backups within 30 business days
- shop/redact — sent 48 hours after you uninstall BackupMaster, triggering deletion of all store data from BackupMaster’s servers
