How To Add Legal Pages To Shopify

Creating legal pages on your Shopify page is a little different from normal pages. Follow these steps to create legal information pages on your site.

Login to your Shopify store using your credentials.

Now you need to go to your ‘Settings’ and then ‘Legal’ settings. This will take you to a custom section of the website where your legal pages can be created.

Now you need to click on ‘Create from template’ and then enter the default template. You can then use the rich text editor to create a style and format for your policy. Be sure to add text boxes to the page so you can add the legal text needed to the website page. You can add links and images to your policies as well.

If you’re stuck on the policies, there are those who can write these for you. Or you could borrow some of the free to use legal forms online. Be sure that you follow all the terms and conditions of the legal documents. Some will require you to give credit to the original author.

Be sure that you review your policies and they’re suitable for the legal jurisdiction you’re selling in and your brand. Make any changes that are necessary.

When you’re happy, you can click on the ‘Save’ button.

If you accept any traffic from the European Union, then you need to be compliant with GDPR. There are several apps that can help you do this. A good one is the GDPR Legal Cookie Shopify app. This not only adds your GDPR policies and connects them, it adds the relevant information that is needed to make your store compliant with GDPR laws.

With the app, customers on your site must agree to your policy. This information, and acceptance, is kept on record. The app is fairly low cost, especially compared to a fine from the EU for breach.
