We've updated our Partner Program Agreement

We recently made some updates to Shopify's Partner Program Agreement (PPA). Previously, terms relating to the Shopify API were included in the PPA but now they are found in our new API License and Terms of Use agreement (the "Shopify API Terms"). The Shopify API Terms apply to everyone who accesses or uses the Shopify API.

Please take a few moments to review the updated PPA and the new Shopify API Terms.

Thanks,
Shopify Partners
