We collect financial information (like credit card and banking information) from users who order goods, products or services from us. We will use this information to bill and collect for the goods, products and/or services that you order. We will also use this information to confirm your registration qualifications where appropriate.

SimplytheBest will not sell, share or rent your personally identifiable information to anyone, except as expressly described below:
we have your express consent to share your information; we need to share your information to provide you the product or service that you requested, we believe in good faith that any applicable law, regulation or legal process requires it when the disclosure is necessary to protect or enforce our rights or the rights of another user; we may share generic, aggregate and anonymous information with advertisers and affiliates.

SimplytheBest does not control the practices of our advertisers. If you have questions about how one of our advertisers uses information about you when you click their ad and go to their content, please contact them directly. (SimplytheBest will divulge information only as necessary to comply with state and federal laws.)
