Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Humalyse (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects data on our website humalyse.com, in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Dutch privacy laws.

Our platform is designed with privacy in mind. We intentionally collect as little personal data as possible while still enabling meaningful statistical insights.

By registering for and using our website, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

What data we collect

We collect only the minimum data necessary to operate the questionnaire and generate anonymous statistical insights. This may include:

• Questionnaire responses
• Month and year of birth (we do not collect the day of birth), gender, and nationality
• E-mail address (for account access and communication only)

We do not collect names, full dates of birth, physical addresses, or other directly identifying information.

Purpose of data processing

Your data is processed solely for the following purposes:

• Generating statistical and analytical insights
• Displaying aggregated and anonymized results to other users
• Improving our questionnaires and services
• Academic, research, or market insights

We do not use questionnaire responses for marketing, profiling individuals, or automated decision-making.

Anonymization and aggregation

All questionnaire responses are processed and stored in a way that prevents identification of individual users.

When data is shared with third parties or displayed on the platform, it is:

• Anonymized where reasonably possible
• Aggregated at group level (e.g. age ranges, trends, averages)

We do not sell or share e-mail addresses or any data that could directly identify you.

Sharing data with third parties

We may share anonymized and aggregated statistical data with third parties, such as researchers, partners, or institutions.

This shared data:

• Does not contain names, e-mail addresses, or direct identifiers
• Cannot reasonably be traced back to individual users
• Is used only for analytical or research purposes

By registering, you explicitly consent to this form of anonymized data sharing.

Viewing aggregated results

One of the core features of our platform is the ability for users to view aggregated results from other respondents.

These results are presented exclusively at an aggregate level and never expose individual answers or identities.

Analytics and cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website and to improve performance and usability.

Google may collect technical information such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This data is processed in accordance with Google’s privacy practices.

More information can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy.

Data retention

We retain questionnaire data only for as long as it is needed for statistical and research purposes. Anonymized data may be retained for longer periods, as it can no longer be linked to an individual.

Account-related data such as e-mail addresses is retained only while your account remains active or as required by law.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your personal data
• Withdraw your consent at any time

You can exercise these rights by contacting us at info@humalyse.com.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page, along with an updated revision date.
