Shopify will generate policy templates for you, and it says in the same breath why that is not enough here: "Policy templates can be generated only in English. If you operate your store in any other language, then you need to create your own store policies. Contact a local law expert for help." It also reminds you that "Although Shopify can generate templates, you're responsible for following your published policies." A German shop is therefore on its own from the first sentence, which is the entire reason this category exists.

What these apps sell is not a generator, it is a subscription. Texts drafted by lawyers or a trade association, kept current when the law moves, pushed into your shop automatically. That difference matters more than any feature: a one-off text is out of date the next time a court rules, and the risk here is a warning letter rather than a fine.

Where the texts land is worth knowing before you install anything. Shopify has one policy object with a fixed set of types, including legal notice, privacy policy and terms of service, writable through the Admin API, and saved policies are linked automatically in the footer of your checkout pages. Anything outside that fixed list, and German commerce has several, has no native slot at all and ends up as an ordinary page you have to link yourself.

What to look for in a Rechtstexte app

A subscription, not a download
The whole value is the update after the law changes. Ask how updates reach your shop, whether they are applied automatically or wait for you to approve them, and what you are told when something changes. A service that emails you a new document is not the same product.
What the guarantee actually covers
Every listing here talks about warning letters. Only some promise to carry the costs if one arrives. Read that clause specifically: who is liable, up to what, and on what condition, because it is the difference between insurance and reassurance.
Which documents, by name
Ask for the list: terms, cancellation policy and its form, privacy policy, imprint, and then the ones with no native home, such as shipping information and the various product-specific notices. The second group is where a store quietly ends up non-compliant.
Where each text is written
Since only some documents fit Shopify's policy types, find out which go into policies and which become pages, and whether the app links the pages anywhere or leaves that to you. A perfect imprint nobody can reach is not an imprint.
The questionnaire is the product
These services configure your texts from answers you give about how you sell: shipping regions, payment methods, returns handling, digital goods. Do it honestly and slowly. Wrong answers produce confident, wrong legal text, and no app checks your work.
More than one language or market
Selling across the EU means the same obligations in several languages. Ask which languages the service maintains, whether translations are also updated when the source changes, and how they attach to your markets rather than to one storefront.

What does the Built for Shopify badge mean?

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
