Privacy Policy

We may collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, telephone number, business name, website information, project requirements, branding preferences, files, photos, domain information, requested integrations, budget or timing information, and any other information you choose to submit.

When you use our website, limited technical information may also be collected automatically, such as browser type, device type, referring pages, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address, and basic usage or performance data when analytics tools are enabled.

Our client discovery process may use Tally or another form provider. Information submitted through a third-party form is processed through that provider before it is made available to us and is also subject to that provider’s terms and privacy practices.

Our website is hosted through Vercel. Depending on the services selected for a project, we may also use third-party providers for domains, email, booking, payments, analytics, customer communications, automation, databases, storage or other technical functions.

We may use information to respond to inquiries, evaluate project fit, prepare quotes and proposals, communicate about projects, provide website design and related services, configure requested integrations, process transactions through supported providers, improve our website and services, prevent misuse, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, and protect our rights.

We do not sell personal information for money. We do not use information submitted through the discovery process for unrelated purposes without a lawful basis or appropriate notice.

If payment functionality is used, payment information may be collected directly by a third-party payment processor such as Stripe or another provider. We do not intend to store full payment-card numbers on our website servers. Payment processors handle payment information under their own terms and privacy policies.

The website may use essential cookies or similar technologies required for security, functionality and performance. Analytics or marketing technologies may also be enabled in the future. If non-essential tracking technologies are enabled where consent is required by applicable law, appropriate notice or consent controls should be provided.

Vercel Analytics may be used to understand aggregate site performance and usage. Additional analytics or advertising platforms will be disclosed through the site or an updated version of this policy when implemented.

We may share information with service providers and contractors who need it to support our website or deliver requested services, including hosting, form, email, payment, booking, analytics, storage, database and automation providers.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, legal process or governmental requests; protect the rights, safety or property of Your Website Made Simple or others; investigate fraud or security issues; or support a business reorganization, merger, financing, acquisition or sale of assets.

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including project administration, customer service, recordkeeping, dispute resolution, security and legal obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and the services provided.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we handle. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security.

Depending on where you live and which privacy laws apply, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of certain personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

To submit a privacy request, contact support.wms@hotmail.com. We will respond as required by applicable law. We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.

This website and our website-design services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13 through this website.

Our service providers may process or store information in the United States, Canada or other jurisdictions. By using the website or submitting information, you understand that information may be processed in jurisdictions whose data-protection rules differ from those where you live, subject to applicable law.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Material changes may be communicated by additional notice when appropriate.
