Nia Atelier operates this website and is responsible for the personal information described in this policy (the data controller).

Registered legal name, registration number, registered address and VAT number: to be confirmed before publication.

Privacy contact address: to be confirmed before publication.

Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:

We use personal information to:

You can create an account with an email address and a password. Email verification and password reset are handled through secure links sent to your email address.

When you choose to sign in with Google, Nia Atelier may receive basic account information made available through the Google authentication process, such as your name, email address and profile photo.

Nia Atelier does not request access to Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar or Google Contacts as part of basic authentication.

Sign-in with Google is planned and is not yet available on this site. When it is enabled, this section will be checked again against the exact information the sign-in process provides.

If you are signed in, the pieces you save to your Wishlist are stored with your account so they are available on your other devices.

If you are signed out, your Wishlist is kept only in your own browser. If you later sign in, those saved pieces may be added to your account Wishlist and removed from browser storage.

Studio Credits and their related activity are recorded against your account so that balances and history can be shown to you accurately.

To fulfil an order we process your contact, delivery and billing details together with the details of the items ordered.

Payments are handled by our payment providers, Stripe and PayPal. Your card number and full payment credentials are entered with those providers and are never stored by Nia Atelier. We receive confirmation of the payment result and the information needed to fulfil and account for the order.

This site uses a small number of technologies that are necessary for it to work:

The application does not currently use advertising or analytics tracking technologies.

If non-essential tracking technologies are introduced in the future, consent requirements will be reassessed and this policy will be updated accordingly.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with providers that help us operate the shop, and only as far as needed:

Account information may be retained while your account remains active.

Order, transaction and business records may need to be retained for legal, accounting, security or legitimate operational requirements.

Information is deleted when it is no longer required, subject to those obligations.

You may request deletion where applicable, and some information may still need to be retained where required or permitted by law.

Exact retention periods are to be confirmed before publication.

You may contact Nia Atelier to request deletion of your account and personal information. We will action such requests where applicable, subject to legal and legitimate retention requirements, and will tell you if anything must be kept and why.

The contact address for deletion and privacy requests is to be confirmed before publication.

Under European Union and Cyprus data protection law you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to have inaccurate information corrected, to request erasure, to object to or ask us to restrict certain processing, to receive a copy of information you provided in a portable format, and to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection in Cyprus.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including encrypted connections, access controls and reputable service providers. No website or online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we do not claim otherwise.

This site is not directed at children, and accounts are intended for adults. Any minimum age requirement for holding an account is to be confirmed before publication. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate action.

Some of our service providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where that happens, we rely on the safeguards permitted by applicable data protection law, such as standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision.

We may update this policy as the site and our services change. The effective date at the top shows when the current version took effect, and material changes will be highlighted on the site.

For questions about this policy or about your personal information, please contact Nia Atelier. Contact details are to be confirmed before publication.
