We may collect the following types of information:
•    Information you provide – When you sign up for a Bath Simple Account [link to Log In], we ask you for personal information.  “Personal Information” is information that you provide to us which personally identifies you, such as your name, email address or billing information, or other data which can be reasonably linked to such information by Bath Simple.  We may collect personal information when you purchase, order, return, exchange or request certain information about our products and services.  This also applies when you contact a customer service representative or employee of Bath Simple.  This allows us to better serve you.
•    Cookies – When you visit Bath Simple, we send one or more cookies to your computer or other device.  We use cookies to improve the quality of our service, including for storing user preferences, improving search results, and tracking user trends, such as how people use our services and products.

•    User Communications – When you send email or other communications to Bath Simple, we may retain those communications in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services.  We may use your email address to communicate with you about our services and products.

•    Other Sites – This Privacy Policy applies to Bath Simple services only.  We do not exercise control over the sites with Bath Simple applications, products or services, or links from within our various services.  These other sites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information from you.
•    Customer Service - When you call one of our customer service representatives about a product, delivery, an installation, a billing question or for customer service, you may be asked for information that identifies you along with additional information we need to help us promptly answer your question, such as your name and address and a phone number where we might contact you. We may retain this information to assist you in the future.
•    Shopping Service – All of the information you provide us when you place an order on our Site is transmitted through the Internet using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

In addition to the above, we may use the information we collect to:
•    Provide, maintain, protect, and improve our services and develop new services; and
•    Protect the rights or property of Bath Simple or our users.

Bath Simple processes personal information on our servers in the United States of America and in other countries.  In some cases, we process personal information outside your own country.

Choices

You can use the Bath Simple Dashboard [link to Log In screen] to review and control the information stored in your Bath Simple Account.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.  However, some Bath Simple features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.

Information Sharing

Bath Simple only shares personal information with other companies or individuals outside of Bath Simple in the following limited circumstances:

•    We have your consent.  We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
•    We provide such information to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies or other trusted businesses or persons for the purpose of processing personal information on our behalf.  We require that these parties agree to process such information on our behalf.  We require that these parties agree to process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
•    We have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Bath Simple, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.

If Bath Simple becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will ensure the confidentiality of any personal information involved in such transactions and provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Information Security

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data.  These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, including appropriate encryption and physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data.

We restrict access to personal information to Bath Simple employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it on our behalf.  These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

Accessing And Updating Personal Information

When you use Bath Simple services, we make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal information and either to correct this data if it is inaccurate or to delete such data at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes.  We ask individual users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed before processing such requests, and we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required.  In any case where we provide information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort.  Because of the way we maintain certain services, after you delete your information, residual copies may take a period of time before they are deleted from our active servers and may remain in our backup systems.

Enforcement

Bath Simple adheres to the US Safe Harbor Privacy Principles of Notice, Choice, Onward Transfer, Security, Data Integrity, Access and Enforcement.

Bath Simple regularly reviews its compliance with this Privacy Policy.  When we receive formal written complaints, it is Bath Simple’s policy to contact the complaining user regarding his or her concerns.  We will cooperate with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that cannot be resolved between Bath Simple and an individual.

Protecting Childrens' Privacy

The Bath Simple sites are not intended for use by children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18.

Changes To This Privacy Policy

Please note that this Privacy Policy may change from time to time.  We will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent.  We will post any Privacy Policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of Privacy Policy changes).  We will also keep prior versions of this Privacy Policy in an archive for your review.
