Privacy policy

Who we are

Women's Den is the practice of Irida Hysenbelli, based in Schiedam, the Netherlands. For anything on this page — or any question about your information — you can always write to contactirida@gmail.com.

What we collect

Contact form: your name, email address, optional phone number, the topic you choose and your message — used only to reply to you.

Newsletter: your email address — used only to send the slow letter, about once a month.

Workshop and circle bookings: your name, email address, optional phone number and the date and ticket you choose — used to administer your booking, confirm your place and send you practical information and a reminder.

Waiting list: your email address and the workshop you choose — used only to write to you if a place opens.

Payments — Stripe

Paid workshop and circle bookings are processed by Stripe. Your card or bank details are entered directly with Stripe and are never seen or stored by Women's Den. We receive a payment confirmation and the details needed for our administration, such as your name, email address and the amount paid.

Scheduling — TidyCal

Introductory calls and one-to-one sessions are scheduled via TidyCal, and some paid bookings — such as Thai massage appointments — are also booked and paid through TidyCal. The details you enter there are processed by TidyCal under their own privacy policy; we receive your name, email address, chosen time and booking details. Card details for those payments are handled by TidyCal's payment provider and are never visible to us.

Email delivery — Resend

Confirmations, reminders and the slow letter are delivered via Resend, an email delivery service. Your email address is shared with them only for delivering those messages.

Analytics — Google Analytics (optional)

With your permission, this website uses Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are visited and how the website is used. The analytics cookies load only after you choose “Accept” in the cookie banner — choose “Decline” and nothing is loaded or sent. IP addresses are anonymised. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.

How we use your information

Only for what you gave it for: replying to your message, administering your booking, sending the letters you asked for, and meeting the legal and tax administration duties of a small practice. Your information is never sold, and never shared beyond the services listed on this page.

How long we keep it

Enquiry and booking records are kept as long as needed for our care and administration, and no longer than the law requires. Newsletter addresses are kept until you unsubscribe — every letter contains an unsubscribe link that removes you immediately.

Your rights

You may ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or object to its use — just email contactirida@gmail.com and it will be taken care of. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).
