Hi guys, 

 

So we want to set up an API with a third-party store : Cycling emporium. Those guys would be dropshipping our product through their platform,which is, I believe, a pretty common thing to do. 

This vendor is reputable and works with other big brands in our field, so we aren't too worried, but we are wondering what access they will have on our backend? 

- Will they have access to our customer data? 

- Do they have access to the customer's data that goes through their website. 

 

We want to start working with them but we want to give them minimal access to our customer database. Can you guys help me to understand what they'll have access to once I setup my account with them? And is there any other way to do it? 

 

I've attached below screenshot of how they want us to setup the API. 

Thanks heaps.
