Privacy Policy

Effective 2026-06-23 · Last updated 2026-06-23

This Privacy Policy describes how Dahlia47 LLC ("commerce-bots", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use commerce-bots.com (the "Site") and our Services.

1. Information we collect

1.1 Information you provide directly:

  • Email address — when you subscribe to schema drift alerts or contact us. Used only to send the service you signed up for and to communicate about that service.
  • GitHub handle — when you submit a contribution to the open-source repository. Shown publicly as a contributor.
  • Payment information — when you subscribe to Pro. We use Stripe, Inc. to process payments. We do not receive, store, or process your credit card number; payment data is handled entirely by Stripe under their privacy policy.

1.2 Information collected automatically:

  • Analytics data — if you have consented, we use PostHog to collect anonymised usage data (pages visited, features used, browser type, approximate geographic region). No personally identifiable information is included in analytics without consent.
  • Log data — our hosting provider (Cloudflare) may collect standard server log data (IP addresses, request timestamps, URLs) as part of normal CDN operation. This is governed by Cloudflare's privacy policy.
  • Cookies — see Section 4.

1.3 Information we do not collect:

  • We do not collect API keys, store credentials, or receive any data from third-party platforms (Shopify, Stripe, ShipStation, etc.) that you configure using our integration code. Integration code runs entirely in your own environment.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, operate, and improve the Services;
  • Send you schema drift alerts and service-related communications you have requested;
  • Process Pro subscription billing through Stripe;
  • Respond to your enquiries and support requests;
  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents;
  • Comply with legal obligations;
  • Conduct anonymised analytics to understand how the Site is used (subject to your consent).

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your information for advertising.

3. How we share your information

3.1 Service providers. We share information with third-party vendors who assist in operating the Services, including:

  • Stripe — payment processing for Pro subscriptions. Governed by Stripe's privacy policy.
  • Resend — transactional email delivery for schema drift alerts and service notifications.
  • PostHog — product analytics (anonymised, consent-gated).
  • Cloudflare — website hosting and CDN.

These providers are authorised to use your information only as necessary to provide services to us.

3.2 Open-source contributions. GitHub handles and contribution content submitted to our public repository are visible publicly on GitHub and on the Site as attribution.

3.3 Legal requirements. We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or government authority, or to protect our rights, safety, or the safety of others.

3.4 Business transfers. If we are acquired by or merged with another entity, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you in advance of any such transfer.

We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

4. Cookies

Essential cookies (no consent required): We use session and security cookies necessary for the Site to function. These cannot be disabled without breaking the Service.

Analytics cookies (consent required): If you consent via our cookie banner, PostHog sets analytics cookies to track anonymised usage patterns. You may withdraw consent at any time via the cookie settings link in the Site footer.
