Security and incident response
Last updated October 28, 2026
How we protect data
- All traffic uses HTTPS. The database (Neon) and its backups are encrypted at rest.
- API keys from merchants are stored encrypted or hashed. Storefront requests are signed by Shopify.
- Only IT BRAIN staff who run the app can reach production systems, with strong passwords and two-step login.
- Requests to the app are logged by our host (Vercel). Test data is kept separate from production data.
- Personal data is deleted on Shopify's request and when a store uninstalls, as described in the privacy policy.
If something goes wrong
- Contain: within hours of finding a problem, we cut off the affected access (rotate keys, disable the affected feature or connection).
- Assess: we find out what data, stores and customers were affected, using our host and database logs.
- Notify: we tell affected merchants within 72 hours of confirming an incident that involves personal data, with what happened and what they should do, and inform Shopify where required.
- Fix and review: we fix the cause, restore data from backups if needed, and record what we changed so it doesn't happen again.
