Privacy Policy

New Naratif cares about the privacy of our members and their data. This document explains our principles, the criteria we apply to the collection of data, what data is being collected, and why.

Principles

Our privacy policy is underpinned by the following four principles:

1. We only collect information which we are required by law to collect, or which is necessary for the proper functioning of our platform.
2. We never sell this information to third parties.
3. The purpose of the collection must be clearly explained to our members.
4. Members should, where possible, have control over the data.

To uphold these principles, four criteria must be met:

1. Do we need this information for the proper functioning of our platform and/or are we legally required to collect and store this information?
2. Have we explained this clearly to our members?
3. If there is no legal obligation, did you as a member, authorise the collection of this information?
4. Is the data safely and securely stored?

Only when we answer “yes” to all questions do we then collect, store, and use your personal data.

What data do we collect?

We currently collect the following data and personal information:
