For most Shopify merchants, the operational challenge is not installing a compliance app. It is maintaining a workflow that is easy to verify and easy to explain later. ProtectKaro is built to keep that workflow inside Shopify rather than spreading it across ad hoc tools and assumptions.
The strongest setup starts with three things: live consent capture on the storefront, Protection Status visibility in the app, and a reviewable consent log. That combination gives merchants a more credible answer when asked how consent is being handled.
Free gets the workflow live with recent audit-log visibility. Pro unlocks deeper proof with longer retention and CSV export. That makes the upgrade story operational, not cosmetic.
