A Guide to Using the NO SPY Shopify App

In the competitive world of e-commerce, protecting your store's unique ideas and data is crucial. The NO SPY Shopify app helps you do just that by shielding your store from "spy extensions" competitors use to steal product information, pricing strategies, and even customer data. This guide will walk you through installing, configuring, and using NO SPY to keep your store safe and secure.

Getting Started:

  1. Install the App: Head to the Shopify App Store and search for "NO SPY." Click "Add app" and follow the on-screen instructions.

  2. Choose a Plan: The free plan offers basic protection, while paid plans unlock advanced features like custom whitelists and priority support. Select the plan that best suits your store's needs.

  3. Activate the App: Once installed, go to your Shopify admin panel, click "Apps," and then "NO SPY." Click "Activate" to enable the app's features.

  4. Watch how it works

Configuring NO SPY:

  1. Block Spy Extensions: Navigate to the "Spy Extensions" section. Here, you'll find a list of popular spy extensions detected by NO SPY. Tick the boxes next to those you want to block from accessing your store (e.g., AliHunter, PPSpy, UUSpy).

  2. Content Protection: This section allows you to disable features that could be used to copy your content. You can disable:

    1. Right-click: Prevents visitors from right-clicking and copying content.

    2. Inspect Element: Disables browser developer tools, making it harder to steal code.

    3. Keyboard Shortcuts: Blocks shortcuts like Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to prevent copying text.

    4. Text Selection: Disables text highlighting and selection.

    5. Advanced Settings: For advanced users, the "Advanced Settings" section offers additional options like blocking specific IP addresses and creating custom whitelists for trusted visitors.

Additional Tips:

Test Thoroughly: After enabling features, test your store thoroughly to ensure they don't interfere with user experience or functionality.

Monitor Performance: Keep an eye on your store's performance after activating NO SPY. Some features slightly impact the loading speed.

Stay Updated: Regularly update the NO SPY app to benefit from the latest security features and bug fixes.

Remember:

  • While NO SPY provides valuable protection, it's not foolproof. Maintaining strong passwords, using secure themes, and being vigilant about suspicious activities are still crucial for overall store security.

  • By following this guide and using NO SPY effectively, you can create a more secure and competitive online store, giving you peace of mind and a stronger foundation for your business growth.
