Data Processing Addendum

IntakePilot: Purchase orders to Shopify draft orders

Effective date: November 3, 2026

This Data Processing Addendum ("DPA") forms part of the IntakePilot Terms of Service between you, the Shopify store that installs IntakePilot ("Customer," "you"), and Alpenglow Software LLC ("we," "us," "Processor"). It applies automatically when you accept the Terms, and covers the personal data we process on your behalf through the App ("Customer Personal Data"). If this DPA conflicts with the Terms or the Privacy Policy on the processing of Customer Personal Data, this DPA controls.

1. Roles

You are the controller of Customer Personal Data (or a processor acting for your own client, in which case we are your sub-processor). We are your processor, and a "service provider" or "processor" under US state privacy laws. For usage, setup and error records we use to run our business, we act as an independent controller under our Privacy Policy, and this DPA does not apply to them.

2. Details of Processing

3. Instructions

We process Customer Personal Data only on your documented instructions, which are the Terms, this DPA, and your configuration and use of the App, unless the law requires otherwise; in that case we will tell you first unless the law forbids it. We will tell you if we believe an instruction breaks data protection law.

4. Confidentiality

Anyone we authorize to process Customer Personal Data is bound by confidentiality. Our staff do not access the content of your purchase orders or the App's reading of them except with your written permission for a specific support case, to fulfil a data request, to investigate a security incident or abuse of a forwarding address, or where required by law, and we never use that content in evaluation or test sets, or to train AI or machine-learning models, unless you opt in.

5. Security

We maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures, described in Section 4 of the Privacy Policy, including encryption in transit for connections the App makes, encryption of stored original documents and of Shopify access tokens (AES-256-GCM, with keys kept in our hosting provider's secret store), shop-scoped data access, treating every document as untrusted, and deletion schedules. We may update these measures as long as the overall level of protection does not decrease.

6. Sub-processors

You give us general authorization to use sub-processors. The current list is in Section 5 of the Privacy Policy. We impose on each sub-processor, under written terms (which may be the sub-processor's standard data processing terms), data protection obligations that are no less protective than this DPA, and we remain responsible for their performance. Before we add or replace a sub-processor that processes Customer Personal Data, we will update the Privacy Policy and give at least 15 days' notice in the App. You may object on reasonable data protection grounds within that period; if we cannot address your objection, you may uninstall the App before the change takes effect.

7. Assistance

8. Audits

On written request, and no more than once a year unless a breach or an authority requires it, we will provide the information reasonably necessary to demonstrate our compliance with this DPA, starting with written answers to a security questionnaire. If that information is not sufficient to demonstrate compliance, you (or an independent auditor you appoint, bound by confidentiality) may conduct a reasonable audit on at least 30 days' notice, during business hours, at your cost, and in a way that does not compromise other customers' data. Requests go to the contact address below.

9. Deletion and Return

While the App is installed, original documents and the App's reading of them are deleted on the schedule in Section 6 of the Privacy Policy. When you uninstall the App, Shopify sends us a shop erasure request (typically 48 hours later), and on receiving it we permanently delete all Customer Personal Data associated with your store. Before uninstalling, you may ask for a copy of your data. Draft orders, orders, customers, tags and notes the App wrote to your store stay in Shopify under your control. Our email provider keeps each email received for your forwarding address for 30 days, as described in the Privacy Policy.

10. International Transfers

We process Customer Personal Data in the United States, and our sub-processors may process it where they operate. Where a transfer of personal data from the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom to us requires a transfer mechanism, the following are incorporated into this DPA by reference:

If the SCCs conflict with this DPA, the SCCs control.

11. US State Privacy Laws

Where US state privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act) apply, we act as your service provider or processor. We will not sell or share Customer Personal Data (as those laws define "sell" and "share"); retain, use, or disclose it for any purpose other than providing the App to you, or outside our direct business relationship with you; or combine it with personal data we receive from other sources, except as those laws allow. We will comply with our obligations under those laws and provide the same level of privacy protection they require of you; you may take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure we use Customer Personal Data consistently with your obligations, and, on notice, to stop and remediate unauthorized use; and we will bind our sub-processors to the same restrictions. We will tell you if we can no longer meet these obligations.

12. Liability

Each party's liability under this DPA is subject to the limitations of liability in the Terms, except where the law does not allow it.
