Technical assessment and implementation support. PlainPrivacy does not provide legal advice.

Scope
What we investigate on Shopify
The review focuses on the relationship between Shopify’s privacy controls, any third-party CMP, Customer Events and pixels, and the analytics or advertising tools connected to the store.
CMP integration
Check third-party consent platforms such as Consentmo and whether consent choices are propagated into the Shopify privacy model.
Shopify Pixels & Customer Events
Inspect pixels and Customer Events behavior before consent, after accept/reject and after preference changes.
Regional behavior
Test the configured experience in relevant regions and document differences in banner and opt-out behavior.
Consent withdrawal
Verify that visitors can reopen privacy choices and that changing consent affects subsequent tracking.
Analytics & advertising
Review GA4, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, GTM and other relevant integrations for consent-aware behavior.
Evidence

How it works
Investigate first. Change only what the evidence supports.
The initial review establishes the current behavior. Recommended changes are then scoped, implemented only when agreed, and retested afterward.
Review
Confirm the platforms, regions, consent system and tracking stack that need to be tested.
Test
Run controlled browser journeys and inspect consent, storage, requests and tracking behavior.
Prioritize
Separate working controls from technical issues and identify the fixes that matter most.
Fix & verify
When implementation support is requested, apply agreed changes and repeat the relevant tests.
