Pandectes GDPR Compliance

Years of trouble-free use on our jewellery store, and support that really looks at your case: Marios answers quickly, tests your live store himself and explained everything clearly and honestly. Recommended.

Very good and easy to understand app for cookie management, also very quick and top performing support from Ermis, who helped me great and also checked the settings. Thanks so far!!

Great app! Easy to install and configure. Then the Pandectes team verified we were in compliance. Ermis on the support team is super helpful!

Easy setup, great support. Moved over from Cookiebot and had the banner live in about twenty minutes. Having it as a native Shopify app rather than a script in the theme head is a real improvement. It connects straight to Shopify's Customer Privacy API and there's nothing to maintain manually. Marios in support was quick, clear and honest, including telling me when their own integration wasn't the right fit for our setup. Recommended.

We spent a significant amount of time trying to get this app working properly with our Shopify store, GTM, GA4, and consent setup. We worked through script blocking, consent timing, custom pixels, network testing, and multiple troubleshooting steps to make sure tracking only fired after a user gave consent. After implementing Pandectes on our live theme, we saw a massive and completely abnormal spike in GA4 traffic. The traffic was overwhelmingly direct, came from highly suspicious automated-looking users, and did not match what Shopify was reporting. We eventually traced the issue back to behavior that only occurred while Pandectes was active. To confirm it, we disabled the app and watched GA4 in real time. The abnormal traffic nearly stopped immediately. When we reached out to Pandectes, they acknowledged that bot traffic can interact with the banner and pointed us to their bot-blocking feature. The problem is that this functionality is only available on their Enterprise plan. In other words, the app created or enabled a serious analytics issue for us, and the recommended solution was to upgrade to a much more expensive plan. At that point, we had already spent hours auditing scripts, testing consent states, troubleshooting GA4, and trying to make the setup work correctly. For us, this was not worth the risk or the amount of troubleshooting required. We ultimately decided to remove the app and move toward Shopify’s native consent tools with GTM instead. If accurate analytics and clean tracking are important to your business, I would be very cautious before installing this app. We wish we had built the consent setup ourselves from the beginning rather than spending this much time troubleshooting an issue we did not have before installing it.
