Step 01: Install Kernel in theme.liquidโ€‹

  1. In your Shopify Admin, navigate to Online Store โ†’ Themes.
  2. Click the Actions (โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข) menu next to your active theme and select Edit code.
  3. Open layout/theme.liquid.
  4. Paste the following snippet immediately after the opening <head> tag:
{% comment %} Consent Shield Real-Time Defense Kernel {% endcomment %}
<script
src="https://consentshieldai.com/shield.js"
data-site-id="CS-LIVE-PROD"
data-gcm-v2="true"
data-shopify-sync="true"
async>
</script>

Step 02: Shopify Customer Privacy API Bridgeโ€‹

Consent Shield automatically dispatches consent updates to Shopify's tracking consent engine:

// Automatically executed on Shopify stores by shield.js
window.addEventListener('consent_shield_update', function(e) {
if (window.Shopify && window.Shopify.customerPrivacy) {
window.Shopify.customerPrivacy.setTrackingConsent({
analytics: e.detail.categories.analytics,
marketing: e.detail.categories.marketing,
preferences: e.detail.categories.personalization,
sale_of_data: e.detail.categories.marketing
}, function() {
console.log('[Consent Shield] Shopify Customer Privacy state updated successfully');
});
}
});

Step 03: Headless Shopify (Hydrogen & Remix)โ€‹

For headless storefronts built with Shopify Hydrogen, install Consent Shield inside app/root.tsx:

import { useEffect } from 'react';

export default function App() {
useEffect(() => {
const script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = 'https://consentshieldai.com/shield.js';
script.setAttribute('data-site-id', 'CS-LIVE-PROD');
script.setAttribute('data-gcm-v2', 'true');
script.async = true;
document.head.appendChild(script);
}, []);

return <div>{/* Storefront components */}</div>;
}
