What we collect

DuCrochet is not open yet. The only thing this site asks you for is an email address, so we can tell you once when it opens.

Who is responsible

The data controller is Nidal Ghonaim, an Individual Entrepreneur (Անհատ ձեռնարկատեր) registered in the Republic of Armenia, state registration number 286.1576409, of 27 N. Tigranyan Street, Arabkir, Yerevan 0014, Republic of Armenia. For anything on this page, contact nidalghonaim@gmail.com.

What we collect, why, and on what basis

Your email address — consent

Collected only when you submit the form yourself. We use it to send you one email, when the shop opens. We do not sell it, share it, or send anything else. The legal basis is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

Giving us your email is entirely optional. Nothing on this site requires it — if you would rather not, the only consequence is that you will not get the launch email.

Your IP address — legitimate interests

When you submit the form, the server reads your IP address to count how many submissions have come from one place, so the form cannot be flooded. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in keeping the form working and our costs under control. It is held in memory only for that count and is never written to a database. Our host also records it in standard server logs.

Anonymous usage statistics — legitimate interests

We measure page views, where visits came from, and how quickly pages load, so we can tell whether the site works. This uses no cookies and no cross-site tracking, and does not identify you individually. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in understanding and improving the site.

Who else processes it

• Resend — stores the launch list and sends the launch email.
• Vercel — hosts the site and provides the usage and performance statistics above.

Where your data goes

We are based in Armenia, and both Resend and Vercel are based in the United States. So if you are in the EU, the EEA or the UK, your data leaves that area when you use this site.

Armenia is not covered by an EU adequacy decision. Transfers to our processors rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses incorporated into their data processing agreements, with the UK Addendum for transfers from the UK. Resend additionally participates in the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. You can ask us for a copy of the safeguards that apply to you.

How long we keep it

Your email address is kept until the shop opens and the launch email has gone out, or until you ask us to delete it — whichever comes first. After the launch email is sent we delete the list, unless you have separately asked to keep hearing from us. That follows from what the form promises: one email, and nothing else.

Your rights

You have the right to:

• ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• have inaccurate data corrected
• have your data deleted
• ask us to restrict how we use it
• object to processing based on our legitimate interests
• receive your data in a portable form, or have it sent to someone else
• withdraw your consent at any time

Email nidalghonaim@gmail.com and we will action it. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, you can complain to a regulator:

• in Armenia, the Personal Data Protection Agency at the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Armenia
• in the EU, EEA or UK, your own national data protection authority

Automated decisions

We do not make any automated decisions about you, and we do not profile you.
