AutoHide Terms of Service
Last updated: February 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By installing or using AutoHide (“the app”), you (“the merchant”) agree to
these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not install the app.
2. Description of Service
AutoHide is a Shopify application that automatically hides products from your online storefront
when inventory reaches zero and restores them when inventory returns. The app operates through
Shopify’s APIs and does not modify your theme code.
3. Eligibility
You must be a Shopify store owner or authorized administrator to install and use AutoHide.
You must have a valid Shopify subscription.
4. Plans and Pricing
Free Plan:
- Auto-hide and auto-restore for up to 100 products
- 7-day activity log
- Up to 3 product exclusions
Pro Plan ($5.99/month):
- Unlimited products
- 30-day activity log
- Redirect sold-out product URLs to collection pages
- Daily email digest notifications
- Unlimited exclusion rules
- Priority support
The Pro plan includes a 30-day free trial. Billing is handled through Shopify’s App
Subscriptions API. You can cancel at any time through your Shopify admin.
We may change pricing with 30 days’ notice. Existing subscribers will be notified
before any price change takes effect.
5. How the App Works
- AutoHide listens for inventory changes via Shopify webhooks
- When a product’s total inventory across all locations reaches zero, the app removes it from your Online Store sales channel (unlisting it)
- When inventory is restored above zero, the app re-publishes the product to your Online Store sales channel
- Products are unlisted, not archived — URLs stay accessible and SEO is preserved
- A 5-second debounce prevents rapid repeated actions during bulk inventory updates
6. Limitations
- No guarantee of timing. While we target sub-60-second response times, webhook delivery depends on Shopify’s infrastructure and may occasionally be delayed.
- No guarantee of uptime. We target 99.5% uptime but do not offer a formal SLA.
- Product limit on Free plan. Only the first 100 products (by creation date) are monitored on the Free plan.
- Not inventory management. AutoHide manages product visibility, not inventory levels.
- Shopify API dependency. Changes to Shopify’s platform may temporarily affect functionality.
7. Your Responsibilities
- Maintain a valid Shopify subscription
- Ensure your store’s inventory data is accurate
- Review the activity log periodically to confirm expected behavior
- Contact us if you notice unexpected hiding or restoring of products
8. Data and Privacy
Your data is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We only store
shop domain, encrypted access tokens, app settings, and product activity data. We never store
personal contact information. All data is deleted when you uninstall.
9. Intellectual Property
AutoHide and its code, design, and documentation are the intellectual property of the app’s
developer. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the app for
the duration of your subscription.
10. Termination
- By you: Uninstall the app at any time through your Shopify admin. Your subscription will be cancelled and all data deleted.
- By us: We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these terms, misuse the API, or engage in activity that harms our infrastructure. We will provide notice when possible.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, AutoHide and its developer shall not be liable for lost
revenue, profits, or sales resulting from products being hidden or not hidden, indirect or
consequential damages, or damages arising from Shopify platform changes or API outages.
Total liability for any claim shall not exceed the fees paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim.
12. Changes to Terms
We may update these terms with 30 days’ notice. Continued use after changes take effect
constitutes acceptance. Material changes will be communicated through the app or via email.
