Privacy Policy

Purpose of This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information SimoneWellness gathers when you visit simonewellness.com, create an account, or send a message, and how that information is handled afterwards. Reading the site does not require an account, and the pages themselves collect nothing beyond ordinary technical data.

By using the site you agree to the practices described here. If any part of this policy is unclear, the contact details at the end of the page are the right place to ask.

Information You Provide

Some features ask you for details directly. These may include:

• Your first name, last name and email address when creating an account.
• Your phone number when you choose to receive text messages.
• A password, which is stored in a protected form and never shown to anyone.
• The subject and content of any message sent through the contact page.
• The consent choices you make on the sign up form.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, simonewellness.com records basic technical details when a page is opened, such as the browser type, device type, approximate location derived from the network address, the pages visited and the time spent on them. This data is used to keep the site running smoothly and to understand which topics readers find useful.

How Information Is Used

Personal information is used only for the purposes it was shared for, including:

• Creating and maintaining your account and letting you log in.
• Sending the service messages and, where you have opted in, the marketing messages you selected.
• Replying to questions sent through the contact page.
• Improving the reading based on which pages are visited most.
• Protecting the site against misuse and keeping it secure.

No Sale of Personal Information

Text Messages and Consent

Text messages are sent only to people who have chosen to receive them on the sign up form. Service messages relate to your account, such as sign up confirmations and reminders. Marketing messages cover new reading, habit guides and offers. Message frequency may vary and standard message and data rates from your carrier may apply.

You can stop messages at any time by replying STOP, or reply HELP for assistance. Opting out of marketing messages does not affect your ability to use the site.

Cookies and Similar Tools

The site uses a small number of cookies and similar tools to remember your login, keep your preferences and understand general traffic patterns. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Doing so may mean some features, such as staying logged in, stop working as expected.

Sharing With Service Providers

Certain tasks are handled by trusted providers who act on behalf of the site, such as hosting, email delivery, text message delivery and basic analytics. These providers receive only the information needed to do their job and are required to protect it. They may not use it for their own purposes.

Legal Disclosures

Information may be disclosed when the law requires it, when a valid legal request is received, or when disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety or property of the site, its readers or others.

How Long Information Is Kept

Account details are kept for as long as the account remains open. Messages sent through the contact page are kept long enough to reply and to keep a record of the conversation. Technical logs are retained for a limited period and then removed or anonymised. When information is no longer needed it is deleted or made unidentifiable.

Keeping Information Secure

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are in place to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorised access, including encrypted connections and protected password storage. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be promised, but every practical step is taken.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, or to receive a copy of it. You can update most account details yourself after logging in, unsubscribe from messages at any time, and ask for the account to be closed by writing through the contact page. Requests are answered as promptly as reasonably possible.

Children's Privacy

The site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children, and accounts are not offered to anyone below the age stated in the Terms & Conditions. If it appears that information from a child has been received, it will be removed as soon as possible.

Links to Other Sites

Pages may occasionally link to other websites for further reading. Those sites have their own privacy practices, which the site does not control. Reviewing their policies before sharing any information with them is a sensible habit.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated from time to time as the site or the law changes. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised policy.
