Shopware Legal Services
With the Shopware Legal Services extension you have the possibility to generate customized legal texts for your store. We work together with our partner Trusted Shops to always provide you with up-to-date, legally compliant and localized texts. Besides automatic updates, Trusted Shops also assumes liability for all generated legal texts.
Installation
You can easily install the extension via the store in the administration. Once the app is installed, you can find it under My Extensions.
You can find the extension in your administration under Content > Shopware Legal Services - Legal Texts.
