Privacy Policy

Last updated: please refer to the date shown on this page when you visit.

This Privacy Policy explains how Nijude ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects your personal data when you visit our website and use the contact form on it. We are based in the United Kingdom and we process personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR).

1. Who we are

Nijude is the controller of the personal data described in this policy. This means we decide how and why your data is used.

Company name: Nijude
Address: 34 Dewsbury Road, Leeds, LS3 9YB, United Kingdom
Email: [email protected]
Phone: +44 113 950 3264

2. What personal data we collect and why

The form on this website is the only way we collect personal data directly from you. When you use it, we ask for the information needed to understand and answer your enquiry about our mobile app for tracking shared household expenses.

Data	Purpose
Your name	To address you correctly when we reply
Your email address	To respond to your message and continue the conversation
Your telephone number, if you choose to give it	To contact you by phone where you have asked us to
The content of your message	To understand your request and provide an accurate answer

Please do not include sensitive information, such as health details or financial account numbers, in your message. We do not need it to answer an enquiry.

3. Legal basis for processing

Under the UK GDPR we must have a lawful basis for using your personal data. We rely on the following:

Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): we process the details you submit through the form in order to read, answer and keep a record of your enquiry. We consider this use to be expected by you and to have a minimal impact on your privacy.
Steps prior to entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b)): where your enquiry relates to using our services, we process your data to respond to your request before any agreement is made.
Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): we rely on consent for the optional cookie described in section 6 and for advertising measurement. You may withdraw consent at any time.
Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)): where we must keep or disclose information to comply with the law.

4. How long we keep your data

We keep enquiry details only for as long as needed to deal with your request and any reasonable follow-up. Unless a longer period is required by law or to defend a legal claim, we delete enquiry records within 12 months of our last contact with you. If you ask us to erase your data sooner, we will do so unless we have a legal reason to retain it.

The "cookie_pref" cookie is stored in your browser for one year, as explained below.

5. Who we share your data with

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary and only with:

Service providers who help us operate our website, host our systems or handle email, acting on our instructions and bound by data-protection obligations;
Professional advisers, such as lawyers or accountants, where needed to obtain advice;
Authorities or courts, where we are legally required to disclose information.

If any provider processes your data outside the United Kingdom, we ensure an appropriate safeguard is in place, such as an adequacy decision or approved contractual clauses, as required by the UK GDPR.

6. Cookies

We keep our use of cookies to a minimum. This website sets one cookie only:

Cookie name	Purpose	Duration
`cookie_pref`	Stores your cookie consent choice so we do not ask you again on every visit	One year

We do not use analytics tools on this website, and we do not set session or tracking cookies for statistical purposes.

Advertising measurement

Advertising measurement runs only if you have given your consent, and only on the confirmation page shown after you submit the form. If you decline, no advertising measurement takes place. You can change your choice at any time by clearing the "cookie_pref" cookie in your browser settings, after which you will be asked again.

7. Your rights

Under the UK GDPR you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of access: to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
Right to rectification: to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected;
Right to erasure: to ask us to delete your data in certain circumstances;
Right to restrict processing: to ask us to pause the use of your data in certain circumstances;
Right to data portability: to receive your data in a structured, commonly used format where processing is based on consent or contract;
Right to object: to object to processing based on legitimate interests;
Right to withdraw consent: at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

How to exercise your rights

To use any of these rights, email us at [email protected] or write to us at 34 Dewsbury Road, Leeds, LS3 9YB. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. We will respond within one month of receiving it. This period may be extended by up to two further months for complex requests, in which case we will tell you why. We do not charge a fee unless a request is clearly unfounded or excessive.

8. Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, please contact us first so that we can try to put things right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the supervisory authority for data protection in the United Kingdom, at ico.org.uk.

9. Security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration or disclosure. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we work to keep the information you give us safe.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The current version will always be available on this page, and we encourage you to review it periodically.
