Shopify prioritizes the protection of personal information to maintain customer trust. The platform is designed to provide transparency and control over personal data, ensuring compliance with global privacy and data protection laws. Compliance with privacy and data protection laws is crucial when selling products through Shopify, focusing on data minimization, transparency, control, and security.
Transport Layer Security (TLS)
Shopify uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to secure all connections to our store.
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an encryption protocol used to secure communications over the internet. TLS applies to all connections to Shopify. Shopify supports version TLS 1.2 and higher of the TLS protocol.
Even though TLS replaced the older SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol, the terms TLS and SSL are still used interchangeably. In other words, an SSL certificate is really a TLS certificate.
