Implement GDPR Webhooks
See original GitHub issuehttps://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/gdpr-resources
TL;DR;
In May, Shopify shared communications regarding the European Union’s new General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and what it means for merchants and developers on our platform.
One key aspect of the GDPR is that individuals now have the right to request access to their personal data and/or have their personal data deleted. To execute these requests, all developers on our platform who handle personal information are required to subscribe to our mandatory webhooks.
How developers receive requests around personal data
When Shopify receives notice from a merchant that a customer would like their personal data deleted, Shopify will redact all the personal data it stores on that customer and push that redaction request to you to fulfill as well. Likewise, if a customer requests to view their personal data from a merchant, Shopify will also send the merchant the requested data and push the same request to you. In general, the GDPR requires that the personal data be redacted upon request, unless you have another legal reason not to do so.
Implementation and Timing
We will begin sending out payloads for Customer Redaction and View Data on August 25th, 2018.
These payloads are being delivered through three webhooks; the two we introduced in May (Customer Redaction and Shop Redaction), and a third (View Data) which will be available by August 25th.
With all of these webhooks, unless you are legally required to retain the data, requests should be addressed within 30 days of receipt.
