The App **only** reads data from our internal database.

Your Shopify store **never** communicates with PriceCharting or another third-party provider through this App.

---

**4.2. External Data Retrieval Conducted Separately**

We do not send your store data to PriceCharting or any other external service.

All such providers are GDPR/CCPA compliant.

We do **not** store any customer personal information.
