Welcome to Deals Simply Plants Store (“we”, “us”, or “our”). At shrubsnbushes.com, we value your privacy as much as we value nurturing healthy plants. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or make purchases from us.

1. Information We Collect

  • Personal Information: When you make a purchase, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, payment information (processed securely through our payment processors), and phone number.

We never sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
