5. Your Consent and Its Management
We are guided by the principles of informed consent under Canadian privacy law.
- Knowledge and Clarity: Before or at the time of collection, we will identify the purposes for which your information is being collected. This Policy serves as that primary disclosure.
- Types of Consent:
- Explicit Consent: Required for sensitive information (e.g., financial data, health information) or for uses outside what a reasonable person would expect. We obtain this through clear, affirmative action, like checking a specific opt-in box.
- Implied Consent: May be assumed in non-sensitive contexts where the purpose is obvious. For example, providing your address for delivery implies consent to use it for that purpose.
- Withdrawing Your Consent: You may withdraw your consent for certain uses of your Personal Information at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions, by contacting us at jejunofy@simpledailystore.com. If you withdraw consent for essential purposes (like order fulfillment), we may be unable to provide certain services.

6. How We Share or Disclose Your Information
We do not sell your Personal Information. We may disclose it in the following limited circumstances:
- Service Providers: We share information with trusted third-party vendors who perform functions on our behalf (e.g., payment processing, shipping, IT services, marketing, analytics). These partners are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only as directed.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information where required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or regulation (e.g., tax reporting).
- Business Protection: To protect against fraud, illegal activities, or security threats.
- Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our assets.
- With Your Consent: For any other purpose disclosed to you at the time of collection or with your explicit consent.
7. Data Security
Protecting your information from loss, theft, and unauthorized access is a priority. We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your Personal Information, including:
- Encryption: Using secure socket layer (SSL) technology to encrypt data during transmission.
- Access Control: Limiting employee access to Personal Information on a need-to-know basis.
- System Security: Regularly reviewing our data collection, storage, and processing practices.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. International Data Transfers
As a Canadian business, your data is primarily processed and stored in Canada. Our service providers may be located in the United States or other jurisdictions. When your data is transferred outside Canada, we take steps to ensure it receives an adequate level of protection, consistent with Canadian privacy laws, often through contractual safeguards with the receiving party.
9. Your Rights and Choices (Access, Correction, Deletion)

10. Data Retention
We retain your Personal Information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required to comply with legal, tax, or accounting obligations (e.g., retaining financial transaction records). We then securely delete or anonymize the data.
