Apparelsewingandfabric.com review for ShoppingFeeder Google Shopping

June 23, 2020

If your data (such as your customer addresses, orders, your own company information, email, phone numbers, scripts and the rest) are critical for your company and would not want to have any third party to have access to them.....THEN YOU NEED TO PAY A LOT OF ATTENTION WHEN INSTALLING THIS APP......because the scope of permissions they require to have their app running is way beyond what is needed to get the job. Here is the list of permissions this app requires: 1. View Shopify account data - ShoppingFeeder - Advanced Google Shopping Management will be able to access data such as your Shopify account email addresses, phone numbers, and locations. 2. Manage products - This includes: products, inventory, and collections. 3. Manage orders - This includes: all order details. ShoppingFeeder - Advanced Google Shopping Management will be able to access data such as customer names, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, geolocations, IP addresses, and browser user agents. 4. Manage marketing - This includes: marketing events. 5. Manage your Online Store - This includes: script tags in your Online Store. Now, look at what those permissions allow this app to do....and if you are okay with that, then there should not be much problems. But if you are a real company with policies in place to protect yourself (and by the way, you will never use this app when you become a million dollar store, security wise with the above permissions does not work)......THIS WILL BE A BREACH OF YOUR DATA, THE APP CAN PRETTY MUCH DO ANYTHING EVEN THOUGH THEY CLAIM TO HAVE BUSINESS ETHICS E.T.C.......A SHOPPING FEED APP DOES NOT NEED ALL THESE PERMISSIONS TO WORK!! FYI - WE HAVE ZERO UNDERSTANDING WITH THIS APP (AT NO POINT THERE HAS / WILL EVER BE A PHONE CONVERSATION OR RE-TRY TO USE THEIR APP AGAIN)....... AND THAT WILL REMAIN THE SAME FOR GOOD. WE HAVE ACTUALLY SEND AN OFFICIAL MESSAGE TO THE SHOPIFY POLICY TEAM TO TAKE A REALLY DEEP LOOK INTO THE PERMISSION SCOPE (AS PER ABOVE) THIS APP HAVE ON STORES.....SOMETHING IS FISHY!!
