Niya® is operated by ETTAI Comm.V., a company registered in Belgium with enterprise number BE 0649.400.251, with registered address at Deudondreef 32, 2860 Sint-Katelijne-Waver, Belgium.
For all matters relating to this privacy policy, you can reach us at rachid@niya.life.
ETTAI Comm.V. is the data controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).
We collect personal data in two places on niya.life: the seven questions, and the waitlist form. Nowhere else.
When you submit the waitlist form, we collect the following personal data:
Your first name and email address. These are required. We use them to identify you, to send you a personal response when the Niya door opens, and to manage your position on the waitlist.
Whether you were nominated by an existing Niya member and, in one sentence, what brought you to this page. These are optional. If provided, we use them solely to understand the context of your interest in Niya and to personalise our response to you.
When you complete the seven questions on niya.life and submit your answers, we collect your name, your email address, and the free-text answers you give to the three reflection questions. These answers are personal by nature. We use them for one purpose only: so that a real person can read what you wrote and send you a considered reply. They are not scored, not profiled, not used to rank or filter you, and not shared with anyone.
Beyond what is described above, we collect no other personal data. We do not collect payment information, we do not collect location data, and we do not ask for any special categories of personal data as defined in Article 9 GDPR. If you choose to disclose sensitive information inside a free-text answer, we do not use it for any purpose other than replying to you personally.
We process your data on the basis of your explicit consent, given at the moment you submit the seven questions or the waitlist form. You may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting us at rachid@niya.life. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.
Your data is used exclusively to send you a personal, human reply to what you wrote, to contact you when Niya membership becomes available to you, and to maintain our waitlist.
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR. Every response and assessment involves a real human being.
We do not sell your data. We do not share your data with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not use your data for advertising of any kind.
Your data is stored on servers operated by Hostinger International Ltd., our web hosting provider, which processes data on our behalf as a data processor under a data processing agreement. Hostinger’s infrastructure is located within the European Economic Area.
We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other tracking or analytics tools. We do not use any email marketing platforms. No third party has access to your personal data other than Hostinger in its capacity as hosting provider.
niya.life uses only the technical cookies set by default by WordPress, our website platform. These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function correctly. They do not track your behaviour, build advertising profiles, or share any data with third parties.
No analytics cookies, marketing cookies, or third-party tracking cookies are used on this site. No cookie consent banner is required for strictly necessary cookies under applicable Belgian and EU law.
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to manage the Niya waitlist and onboarding process. If you withdraw your interest, or if you never activate a membership, we delete your data within 12 months. You may ask us to delete your answers at any time, and we will. You may request deletion at any time by contacting rachid@niya.life.
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data: the right to access the data we hold about you, the right to rectification if your data is inaccurate or incomplete, the right to erasure in the circumstances set out in Article 17 GDPR, the right to restrict processing in the circumstances set out in Article 18 GDPR, the right to data portability under Article 20 GDPR, the right to object to processing under Article 21 GDPR, and the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at rachid@niya.life. We will respond within 30 days.
If you believe we have not handled your data correctly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit), Rue de la Presse 35, 1000 Brussels, contact@apd-gba.be, www.dataprotectionauthority.be.
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. Access to your data is limited to the founder of Niya and is not shared with any employee, contractor, or agent beyond what is strictly necessary.
