At Simple Habits Cloud, we value your privacy and aim to be transparent about how we handle your information as a content blog focused on wellness tips.
This Privacy Policy explains what data we gather, why, and how you stay in control. We keep things straightforward since our site mainly shares free articles on habits like better sleep and easy nutrition.
In simple terms: we collect minimal data to run the site, don’t sell anything about you, and give clear ways to manage your preferences.
Information We Collect
We distinguish between Personal Information, which directly identifies you, and other data that doesn’t on its own.
Personal Information includes details you provide voluntarily, such as your name or email address when you submit a contact form, leave a comment, or sign up for our newsletter.
We only collect this if you choose to share it, like replying to an article with your thoughts.
- Name and email from contact or comment forms
- Email subscriptions for habit tips updates
- Any details in messages you send us
Non-Personal Information covers general usage data, like page views or browser type, plus online identifiers such as IP addresses, cookie IDs, or device IDs that may be considered personal data under laws like GDPR.
These help us understand site traffic without naming individuals. Aggregated stats, like total visitors per post, fall here too.
In simple terms: no sensitive details like health info or payment data, as we don’t sell products or track wellness personally.
How We Collect Information
We gather data in two main ways: what you provide directly and what we collect automatically.
You share Personal Information through forms—think newsletter sign-ups for sleep routine emails or contact queries about stress tips.
- Comment sections on blog posts
- Subscription boxes for weekly habit ideas
- Email inquiries via our contact page
Automatically, tools log Non-Personal Information like your IP address, referring pages, or time spent reading nutrition guides.
This happens via server logs and basic scripts as you browse. We avoid invasive tracking to keep your visits light.
How We Use Information
Your data helps us deliver and improve the site, like responding to your emails with personalized habit advice.
We use Non-Personal Information for analytics to see which gentle movement tips resonate most, refining content for busy readers.
Newsletter subscribers get tailored updates, such as bedtime prep ideas, and we track high-level opens or clicks to enhance relevance—you can always unsubscribe easily.
In simple terms: uses focus on better content, replies, and site fixes, not marketing sales.
We never share Personal Information with third parties except as needed for service, like email delivery tools.
Cookies and Tracking
Cookies are small files stored on your device to remember preferences, like keeping your dark mode on for late-night reads.
Site cookies handle basics: session management or language settings. Analytics cookies, such as from Google Analytics, measure traffic patterns without linking to you personally.
- Essential cookies for site functionality
- Analytics for anonymous visit stats
- Preference cookies for user choices
These typically hold online identifiers for preferences or aggregates, not name or email. Manage them via browser settings—clear history or block categories as you wish.
We don’t run cross-site tracking ourselves. Third-party ads may use their own cookies, covered next.
Advertising Partners
We use Google AdSense to show relevant ads, like wellness book suggestions alongside our stress management posts.
Third-party vendors, including Google via DoubleClick cookies, collect data through these ads for personalization across sites they serve.
This involves online identifiers for ad targeting based on interests, not your personal details from us.
- Google AdSense for contextual display ads
- DoubleClick for interest-based serving
- Opt-out via Google Ads Settings
You control this: visit ad settings or use browser extensions. We don’t sell your data to them.
Legal Basis and Rights
For EU users under GDPR, we rely on legitimate interests like site improvement or consent for newsletters.
Providing requested services, such as email replies to habit questions, forms another basis. You have rights to access, correct, delete, or object—email us to exercise them.
California residents under CCPA: request access, deletion, or opt-out of sales/sharing where applicable. We do not sell personal information.
In simple terms: ask anytime, and we’ll respond practically without fees for standard requests.
Rights apply globally where laws reach; we honor them compassionately as a small blog.
Data Retention and Security
We keep Personal Information only as long as needed—like subscriber emails until you unsubscribe or for a limited period post-inquiry.
Non-Personal data lingers briefly in logs for troubleshooting, then aggregates or deletes. No indefinite storage.
Security uses reasonable steps: encrypted connections where possible, access limits, and regular checks against common threats.
- SSL for form submissions
- Restricted server access
- Monitoring for unusual activity
No system is perfect, but we prioritize safeguards fitting our scale. Breaches, if any, prompt notifications as required.
Children’s Privacy
Our site targets adults with beginner wellness routines, not kids under 13.
We don’t knowingly collect data from children. Parents spotting issues should contact us to remove it.
Simple habits content suits families indirectly, but forms require adult input.
Third-Party Links
Links to external resources, like recommended walks apps, take you off-site.
We can’t control their privacy practices—review theirs before sharing data.
