This policy provides information about what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader details on how we collect, use, and protect your personal data. By using our Website and managing your cookie preferences via our consent tool, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the website owners.
Cookies can be:
- Session cookies — These expire once you close your web browser.
- Persistent cookies — These remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
- First-party cookies — These are set by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies — These are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, often when the website incorporates elements from other sites, such as analytics tools or advertising networks.
Similar technologies like pixels, web beacons, local storage, and device identifiers may also be used for comparable purposes. In this policy, we refer to all these technologies collectively as "Cookies".
2. HOW WE USE COOKIES ON SIMPLE.APP
Our Website, https://simple.app/, is primarily a landing page providing information about our company, our mobile application ("App"), and allowing users to find links to download the App. We use Cookies on this Website to:
- Ensure the basic functionality and security of the Website, such as managing user sessions and protecting against security threats.
3. TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
Currently, our Website only utilizes Strictly Necessary Cookies, which are essential for the site's operation and security. We do not currently deploy Performance/Analytics, Functional, or Marketing/Targeting cookies. The descriptions below are provided for informational purposes should our practices change in the future.
We classify the Cookies used on our Website into the following categories. When you first visit our Website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner where you can manage your preferences for each category (except for Strictly Necessary Cookies, which are essential for the site to function).
- Strictly Necessary Cookies — These Cookies are essential for the basic operation of our Website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences or ensuring basic site security. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these Cookies, but some parts of the site may not work then. These Cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and do not require your consent under applicable law.
- Performance and Analytics Cookies — These Cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, see how visitors move around the site, and gather aggregated demographic information. All information these Cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these Cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance as effectively. Your explicit consent is required for these Cookies.
- Functional Cookies — These Cookies enable the Website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. For example, they might be used to remember choices you make (like language preference) if such features exist on the website. If you do not allow these Cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly. Your explicit consent is required for these Cookies.
- Marketing/Targeting Cookies — These Cookies may be set through our site by us or our advertising partners (third parties). They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites, or to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns linking to this Website (e.g., tracking if a click from an ad led to a visit). They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these Cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising related to Simple. Your explicit consent is required for these Cookies.

6. YOUR CHOICES AND MANAGING CONSENT
- Essential Cookies — Our Website currently uses only "Strictly Necessary Cookies". These cookies are essential for the basic operation, functionality, and security of the Website, such as managing your session and protecting against security risks (like Cross-Site Request Forgery). Under applicable data protection laws (such as the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive), these essential cookies do not require your explicit consent. They are active by default to ensure the Website works as intended. Disabling them, for example through browser settings, would likely prevent the Website from functioning correctly.
- No Optional Cookies Currently Used — As we only use Strictly Necessary Cookies at this time, we do not deploy Performance/Analytics, Functional, or Marketing/Targeting cookies. Therefore, you will not see a consent banner asking you to manage choices for these optional categories on our Website. If we introduce non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and provide you with appropriate tools to manage your consent preferences as required by law.
- Browser Settings — While you cannot opt-out of Strictly Necessary Cookies via a site tool without impacting site function, most web browsers provide settings to control cookies more broadly. You can typically configure your browser to:
- View the cookies stored on your device.
- Block cookies from specific sites or all sites.
- Delete existing cookies.
- Alert you when cookies are being sent.
Please be aware that blocking all cookies through your browser settings, including the essential ones we use, will likely impair the functionality of our Website and may prevent you from using it effectively. Deleting cookies may also remove any preferences previously stored by your browser.
- Further Information — You can find more details about managing cookies through your specific browser's 'Help', 'Tools', or 'Settings' menus. Additionally, websites like www.allaboutcookies.org provide comprehensive information on cookies and how to manage them across different browsers.
7. CHANGES TO THIS COOKIE POLICY
We may update this Cookie Policy occasionally to reflect changes, for example, to the Cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. The date at the top indicates the last revision date.
