  • Do not promise lifetime coverage, satisfaction, results, safety, health, durability, compatibility, or delivery unless supported by real policy and evidence.
  • Link delivery, refund, privacy, terms, contact, and acceptable-use pages clearly.
  • Do not imply Shopify endorses the store or policy.
