At Simply Store, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website or submit an enquiry.
1. Information We Collect
Website Visitors
When you browse our website (www.simplystore.com), we collect standard web log data, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This helps us understand how visitors interact with our website and improve user experience. This data is collected in a way that does not directly identify you.
Enquiry Forms
If you submit an enquiry via our website, we collect the information you provide (such as your name, email address, and message). This data is used solely to respond to your enquiry and manage our customer service.
2. Use of Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device to help websites function properly and collect usage data. We use cookies for the following purposes:
- To monitor site performance and user behaviour (e.g., Google Analytics)
- To support basic website and eCommerce functionality (e.g., WooCommerce)
Google Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage statistics. This includes:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Expiry |

_utma | Tracks number of visits and timestamps | 2 years |
_utmb | Tracks session start time | 30 minutes |
_utmc | Determines session duration | End of session |

3. WooCommerce and Orders
If you make a purchase, WooCommerce collects order details such as name, address, and contact information. This is used to process your order, provide customer service, and meet our legal obligations (e.g., tax records). We do not store your payment details—these are processed securely via our payment providers.
4. Data Sharing and Security
We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Your data is stored securely, and access is limited to authorised personnel only.
5. Links to Other Websites
Our website may include links to external websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these sites. Please review their privacy policies individually.
