Security you can trust, privacy your customers deserve
Ongoing Defender protects your store without collecting more than it needs, and its checkout rules are enforced by Shopify itself.
- IP addresses never stored
- Lists never in your store's code
- Rules enforced by Shopify
- Never blocks a real sale
Your customers' data stays private
Defender only keeps what it needs to protect your store, and never shares it.
- Visitor IP addresses are checked on our own servers and never stored or sent anywhere
- Location lookups use our own database, with no third-party tracking
- Your customer and country lists never appear in your store's code
- Card-testing checks keep only scrambled details, deleted after a day
Enforced by Shopify itself
Checkout rules run on Shopify's own servers, not as a script in the browser.
- Runs on every checkout, including Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal
- Bots that skip your storefront are still stopped at checkout
- Checkout activity reaches us through Shopify-signed messages, so it can't be faked
- See and switch off every rule in Shopify admin, under Settings > Checkout
Built to never cost you a sale
Protection is designed so real customers always get through.
- Real checkouts always go through, even if a check can't run
- Discount codes, search, login and checkout fields always work
- Google, Bing and link previews always see your store
- Content protection stays on, even during an outage
And the details that matter
Only the permissions you use
Extra permissions are requested only when you switch on the feature that needs them.
GDPR-ready
When a customer asks to be forgotten, their details are removed from your rules automatically.
Light on your store
A tiny app embed, about 4 KB, with nothing written into your theme.
Clean uninstall
Uninstall and checkout rules are removed straight away, with nothing left in your theme.
