This Cookie Policy explains how Simplicity Upload LTD uses cookies and similar technologies on this website.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, keep sessions secure, remember certain settings, and support essential service features.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies only where necessary to operate, secure, and support the website and related payment and account functions.
These may include cookies needed to: keep you signed in; protect forms and requests from abuse; maintain secure sessions; support payment processing; support fraud prevention and security checks; ensure core website functionality works correctly.
3. Types of cookies we use
We currently use essential / strictly necessary cookies only. These cookies are required for the website and services to function properly and do not require consent under applicable rules where they are strictly necessary.
During checkout, Stripe may set additional cookies or use similar technologies as part of secure payment and fraud prevention. Those are governed by Stripe’s own notices.

5. Third-party services
Where payment or security-related third-party services are used, those providers may place cookies or use similar technologies as part of delivering their services. For example, Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies to support secure payment processing and fraud prevention.

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through browser settings. However, if you block or disable strictly necessary cookies, parts of the website or services may not function correctly.
