Privacy notice

Privacy notice

 

www.nouva.co.uk (or nouva.net) is provided by Nouva Communications Ltd.

Nouva Communications is the data controller for pages starting with nouva.co.uk

If you supply information or request us to contact you, your details are supplied to us under legitimate interest. We will not actively retain your details except to contact you as requested. We will not share information without your permission unless legally obliged to do so.

If you follow a link to a service provided by another company or supplier, then that organisation will:

  • be the data controller

  • be responsible for processing any data you share with them

  • publish and manage their own privacy notice with details of how to contact them

  • if you choose to use an Ad-enabled application you can choose to revoke any ad-related cookie consent from the App or remove the App - In addition Non-cookied/subscription versions of the app will also be made available

Nouva Applications using stored data

MyID app

MyIDapp: What data we collect and why it's needed

No personal data is collected from the MyID application. It is wholly for your private information and your private ID documents, and can be thought of as a personal vault. Your information is also protected by your phone's biometrics, and you setup a personal vault password to protect against unauthorized intrusion.

The app allows you to store the information for your convenience, and for controlled sharing, either via the screen for you to show your ID, or via the QR code for allowing someone to inspect the results of the in-device ID checking, and to confirm you match the ID.

MyIDapp: Our legal basis for processing your data

We don't have access to your data. The app on your phone does have access, and uses legitimate interest to do checks on the ID information, to store it on your behalf and control, and to allow you to easily share the results again under your control.

MyIDapp: How long we keep your data

You keep your data, we do not have access. You can keep it as long as the app is installed on your device. If you remove the app then you can delete your data. note that a new installation will require you to re-setup the ID information to gain the benefits of MyIDapp again.

MyIDapp - If you are using an Ad-supported version

All adverts are curated and managed by Google Inc as a third party, not Nouva Communications. Some advertisement types have been restricted by Nouva  under it's own policies and are subject to change. No personal tracking is allowed by Nouva , however you can opt in to allowing advertisers to track you in their web-site consent - this will override the settings from Nouva 

Revocation of use of Google Ads

You can remove all ads from the application at any time, and prevent any tracking via the MyIDapp route. - remember that other apps on your phone or other sites you visit may well track you. This option is subscription-based and an upgrade from the Ad-supported 'free' version. If you want to do this simply choose the Pro version (or Vault version when we make it available). These will also add additional features over time. Some features may also be rolled down to the Ad version.

You can also remove the application by deleting it. Again no tracking is possible from the ads in the app when it has been deleted..

We remind you that Nouva Communications does not track you, nor has it access to your private data - you keep this in your device protected by device biometrics (where available) and your personal vault access code.
