Legal pages are essential for any e-commerce store. They protect both you and your customers by clearly outlining the rules and policies of your business.
Why Legal Pages Matter
Legal pages help you:
- Comply with local and international regulations (GDPR, CCPA, etc.)
- Protect your business from liability
- Build trust with customers
- Define clear terms for transactions

Displaying Legal Pages on Your Storefront
Shopper stores the content of your legal pages, but does not create the storefront routes automatically. Your developer needs to set up the pages on your website to display this content. Once configured, legal pages are typically:
- Linked in your website footer
- Shown during checkout when required
- Accessible from customer account pages
Legal pages are not published to your storefront automatically. Ask your developer to create the routes and views to display them. See the Legal developer documentation for implementation details.
