# How to setup the Do Not Sell My Data page

### Overview

This guide explains how to create a **Do not sell my data** page using Pandectes GDPR Compliance.

This page gives visitors a place to submit an opt-out request for the sale or sharing of personal data, where applicable.

### How it works

The page uses the **Pandectes Do not sell my data** theme section.

If a visitor uses Global Privacy Control (GPC), Pandectes can detect the signal and apply the opt-out behavior based on your store setup.

### Step 1: Create the theme template

1. In Shopify admin, go to **Online Store > Themes**.
2. Open your active theme.
3. Use the top menu and select **Pages > Create template**.
4. Name the template `donotsell`.
5. In the left panel, click **Add section**.
6. Search for **Pandectes Do not sell my data**.
7. Add the section to the template.
8. Make sure the section is visible.
9. Click **Save**.

### Step 2: Create the page

1. In Shopify admin, go to **Online Store > Pages**.
2. Create a new page or open an existing page.
3. Add a clear page title, such as **Do not sell my data**.
4. In the theme template setting, select the `donotsell` template.
5. Click **Save**.

### Step 3: Add a footer menu link

1. In Shopify admin, go to **Content > Menus**.
2. Open the **Footer** menu.
3. Click **Add menu item**.
4. Set the name to **Do not sell my data**.
5. Link it to the page you created in Step 2.
6. Click **Save**.

### Check the page

Open your storefront and click the footer link.

Confirm that:

* The page opens correctly.
* The Pandectes opt-out section appears.
* The page is visible to visitors.
