Cookies are classified on this website into the following categories:

Use of Automated Decision-Making (ADM) Technologies via Shopify

As part of our store’s integration with Shopify, we may benefit from automated decision- making (ADM) technologies powered by machine learning and artificial intelligence. These services are designed to improve efficiency, personalization and security across the Shopify ecosystem. Below are the key ADM features and how they may affect your experience:

  1. Marketing Automations and Personalization We use Shopify’s built-in Marketing Automations to segment users, send personalized emails and automate customer touchpoints. These automations may rely on behavioral data collected via cookies and similar technologies.
  2. Fraud Detection and Order Risk Evaluation Shopify uses machine learning to assess order risk and detect potential fraud. This may include automated scoring and cancellation of high-risk orders. Learn more about fraud prevention and how Shopify evaluates order risk.
  3. Dynamic Pricing and Demand Forecasting Shopify’s intelligent automation tools may adjust pricing or inventory levels based on demand, competitor pricing or consumer behavior. These features are built into the Shopify dashboard and may rely on aggregated data across the network.
  4. Workflow and Process Automation Shopify uses AI-driven automation to streamline order routing, fulfillment, and other backend processes. These tools help reduce manual tasks and improve operational efficiency.
  5. Ranking and Recommendations Shopify may use ADM to reorder how apps appear in the Shopify App Store or to recommend products. According to Shopify’s Privacy Policy, these decisions either involve a human or do not have legal or similarly significant effects.
  6. Shopify Magic (Content Generation) While we do not currently use Shopify Magic, it’s worth noting that this service uses large language models to generate product descriptions, email subject lines, and other content. Learn more about Shopify Magic.
