Introduction
Pi AI Content Strategist ("the App") is operated by Pi Fabricators, LLC ("we", "us", "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our Shopify app.

- Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) settings
- Custom writing instructions and tone preferences
- Reference documents you upload for AI context

What We Do NOT Collect
- We do not collect personal data about your customers. The App operates on shop-level data only.
- We do not access your customers' browsing history, purchase history, or personal information.

How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information solely to:

Third-Party Sub-Processors
The App relies on the following third-party services. Each is a sub-processor of your data, used for the specific purpose noted.

Note on Google's April 2026 rebrand: Google Cloud's Vertex AI product was renamed to Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform at Google Cloud Next 2026. We use the same underlying service; only the product name changed.
When generating content, we send your topic information, keywords, and writing instructions to the AI sub-processors above. We do NOT send customer data or personally identifiable information about your shoppers to any third party. The App operates on shop-level content data only.
