1. Scope and Data Controller
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed by SimplyBoost through our website, lead capture forms, communication channels, customer onboarding, and related services.
Data controller details: SimplyBoost, 3438 Utrecht, Netherlands. Contact us at hello@simplyboost.io for privacy requests.
2. Information We Collect
We follow a data-minimization approach and collect only the information reasonably needed to respond, qualify leads, and deliver our services.
Depending on your interaction, we may collect:
- Basic contact and identity data: name, public profile name/handle, work email, phone number, company, and message history.
- Website interaction data: page URL, form submission details, event timestamps, browser type, and IP address.
- Channel conversation data from integrations such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook Messenger (for example message text, date and time, and profile metadata you choose to share on those platforms).
- Service and operational data such as support tickets, onboarding notes, and account-level configuration details.
- Cookie preference and strictly necessary cookie data (see Cookie section and Cookie Policy).
We do not intentionally collect special-category personal data, and we ask users not to share highly sensitive information in routine conversations.
Integration-specific examples:
- Website: form fields you submit (such as name, email, phone), page URL, and timestamp.
- WhatsApp: phone number, profile name, message content, and message timestamps.
- Instagram: public username/display name, direct-message content, and message timestamps.
- Facebook Messenger: public profile name, message content, and message timestamps.
3. Sources of Personal Data
We collect personal data directly and indirectly from:
- Website interactions, including contact forms, demo requests, and chat widgets integrated on your site.
- WhatsApp conversations where our automation is used to respond, qualify, or route inquiries.
- Instagram and Facebook Messenger conversations when those channels are connected for customer engagement or lead capture.
- Emails, calls, and meetings with you or your authorized team.
- Essential infrastructure logs and security telemetry required to keep our services reliable.

8. International Data Transfers
Your personal data may be processed in countries outside your place of residence. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards such as contractual clauses and vendor due diligence to protect transferred personal data.
9. Google Authentication and Google User Data
If you choose to sign in with Google, we may receive basic profile information such as your name, email address, and profile image, depending on the scopes you grant.
Google user data is used only for authentication, account security, and features you explicitly enable. We do not sell Google user data and we do not use it for unrelated advertising purposes.
Where applicable, our use of data obtained from Google APIs is limited to the practices disclosed in this policy and is intended to align with the Google API Services User Data Policy requirements.
You can revoke Google access at any time through your Google account permissions settings.
10. Meta Platform Data (WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook)
When Meta integrations are enabled, we process message and profile metadata made available through WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook APIs to support lead capture, support automation, and conversation routing.
Meta platform data is processed only for service functionality requested by our customers and authorized users. We do not sell this data.
For user data deletion requests related to Meta-connected interactions, use our public data deletion instructions at /data-deletion or contact us at hello@simplyboost.io.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including contractual, operational, legal, accounting, and dispute-resolution requirements.
Retention periods vary by data type and legal obligations. When data is no longer required, we delete or anonymize it.
12. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect personal data, including access controls, encryption measures where appropriate, monitoring, and secure service provider practices.
