About the Cordon: VPN & Country Blocker
Cordon blocks unwanted traffic and protects your Shopify store from bots, scrapers, VPNs, and country-based fraud before visitors reach your site. Choose which countries to block from over 200 options, set up allow rules for trusted IP addresses, and enable detection for VPNs, residential proxies, Tor exits, datacenter networks, and headless browsers. The app makes blocking decisions in under 50 milliseconds per visit to keep your store running fast. You can block by country, IP address, CIDR range, or ASN with precise control. Cordon fails open if the service is ever slow, ensuring real customers can always shop normally. For privacy protection, visitor IPs are SHA-256 hashed with a daily-rotating salt, making historical logs permanently irreversible after 24 hours. Stop fraudulent traffic while keeping legitimate shoppers safe.
