Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featurePhotoSentry automatically protects your product images from theft with right-click blocking, drag-and-drop prevention, and keyboard shortcut protection. Every theft attempt is logged with IP address, geographic location, and timestamp so you can track exactly who's trying to steal your photos. Protection activates across your entire store with the click of a button.
Creating original store content takes time, but browsers make theft easy. Stolen images and text don't just hurt your brand - Google penalizes duplicates with substantial ranking drops. Shogard Security is a robust anti-theft solution that safeguards your content from potential theft. Disable right click, add a bot blocker, block or whitelist countries, block IP addresses, and block checkout for unwanted visitors.
- Right-click protection blocks context menus on product images
- Drag-and-drop prevention stops image downloads
- IP and location tracking for every theft attempt
- Geo-blocking by country or IP address
- Keep your images locked: prevent any sort of unauthorized image downloads.
- Protect product descriptions, blog posts, and other content from being copied.
- Disable right click functionality through JavaScript or CSS.
- Use locks to control access and allow only certain customers into your store.
