Free Legal Pages for Your Shopify Store
The privacy, terms, refund and cookie pages every Shopify store needs — free to copy and paste.
Every Shopify store collects customer data and takes payments, which means a few legal pages are effectively required — by data-protection laws like GDPR and CCPA, by consumer-protection rules, and by Shopify Payments itself. Missing or vague policies are a common reason for held payouts and lost chargeback disputes.
These templates give you a solid, plain-English starting point. Fill in your store name, URL and contact email, then paste the result into Shopify under Settings → Policies, or as standard pages linked from your footer.
Privacy Policy
Required once you collect names, emails or payment details. Should reflect the analytics, marketing pixels and apps in your Shopify stack.
Terms of Service
Sets the rules for buying from your store — pricing, orders, accounts and your liability.
Refund Policy
Shopify Payments and most consumer laws expect a clear, findable refund policy. It reduces disputes and chargebacks.
Return & Shipping Policy
Tells customers how returns and shipping work — windows, who pays, and delivery times.
Cookie Policy
Discloses the cookies set by analytics, ads and Shopify apps, alongside your consent banner.
Does Shopify require a privacy policy?
In practice, yes. If you use Shopify Payments and collect customer data you need a privacy policy, and data-protection laws like GDPR and CCPA require one regardless of platform. Shopify offers a basic generator, but you should tailor it to the tools you actually use.
Where do I add these policies in Shopify?
Go to Settings → Policies to add your refund, privacy, terms and shipping policies, which Shopify links from checkout automatically. You can also create standard Pages and link them from your footer.
Are these Shopify legal templates free?
Yes — copy or download any of them for free, no account needed. For a version tailored to your product type and country and checked for gaps, the $2 generators take about a minute.
