Storefront theme installation

Back up your theme before editing. In the intended theme's code editor, locate the layout head and place the complete dashboard snippet before Google/tracking tags. Save, publish the intended theme, and confirm the live storefront—not only a theme preview.

Customer Privacy API

ConsentEase includes Shopify privacy-sync integration when the platform API is available. A script present in the theme does not prove the API loaded, accepted the update or governed every pixel.

Review Shopify's Customer Privacy API and your store's customer privacy/region settings. Inspect actual provider values and behaviour after reject, accept and custom choices. Do not assume a cookie deletion changed the platform's privacy state.

Native banners and pixels

Decide which UI owns choices; competing native and third-party banners can disagree. Check Shopify-managed pixels, app pixels and scripts individually. Do not disable a working native setup until replacement behaviour has been verified.

Checkout and other surfaces

A theme head does not control every Shopify checkout, order-status page, embedded app or headless storefront. Support depends on Shopify's current extensibility, store configuration and the specific surface. This guide does not promise all plans/all themes/checkout coverage without additional setup.

For headless stores, integrate and test the Customer Privacy API and banner lifecycle in that storefront explicitly.

Verify the published site

Use separate fresh browser contexts for no choice, accept, reject and custom preferences. Check tag consent requirements, network traffic, storage and reopening preferences. Test relevant routes and mobile layouts. A theme installation does not prove coverage of checkout, embedded frames or hosted third-party pages.
