Niyamas · Yoga Nidra app · Last updated: June 2026
Niyamas operates the Yoga Nidra app and the website at https://www.niyamas.be (together, the “Services”). This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it.
By using our Services, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Account information. When you sign in using Apple Sign In or Google Sign In, we receive the information those providers share with us. This typically includes:
- A unique identifier from the sign-in provider
- Your email address (Apple may provide a private relay address if you choose to hide your real email)
- Your name, if you choose to share it (Apple Sign In only sends this on first sign-in)
- A profile photo URL (Google Sign In only)
We do not collect your phone number, postal address, or payment information.
Usage data. We record which recordings you play and when. This helps us understand which content is most useful and improve the app over time. This data is linked to your account.
Log data. When you use the app or visit our website, our servers automatically record standard technical information such as your IP address, device type, operating system version, and the date and time of requests. This data is used for security and to diagnose technical issues.
Cached recordings. Recordings you have played are stored locally on your device so they are available offline. This data never leaves your device.
How we use your information
- To authenticate you and maintain your account
- To provide and improve the Services
- To understand which recordings and features are most used
- To respond to support requests
We do not use your data for advertising or marketing purposes, and we do not sell your data to third parties.
Third-party sign-in providers
We use Apple Sign In and Google Sign In for authentication. When you sign in through these services, their own privacy policies also apply:
- Apple: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
- Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Service providers
We may use third-party companies to help operate the Services (for example, hosting providers or analytics tools). These providers access only the information needed to perform their specific tasks and are not permitted to use it for other purposes.
Data retention
We retain your account and usage data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal reasons.
Children’s privacy
Our Services are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Links to other sites
The app may contain links to external websites or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and revise the “last updated” date at the top. For significant changes, we will notify you through the app or by email.

If you have questions about this privacy policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at: info@niyamas.be.
