Verve website, registrations and research

This notice explains how Elias Hadchity, founder and operator of Verve, handles information from the Verve website, the Founding Partner form, emails and planned member and trainer surveys.

Last updated: 21 August 2026

The essentials

Active form

The Founding Partner form collects information you choose to submit and stores it in Cloud Firestore.

Surveys

Research surveys remain closed until the provider and deletion safeguards are ready.

Retention

Founding Partner details: up to 24 months. Future survey answers: up to 12 months.

Your control

You can withdraw consent and exercise your data-protection rights.

1. Who is responsible and what is covered?

The data controller is Elias Hadchity, founder and operator of Verve, Luxembourg.

Privacy requests: privacy@vervetwin.com. General questions: contact@vervetwin.com.

This notice covers vervetwin.com, its Founding Partner interest form, emails sent to Verve, and Verve’s planned member and trainer research surveys and separate survey-testing/contact forms. It does not cover a future Verve user account or application, which has not launched.

2. What information is collected now?

Website delivery

vervetwin.com is delivered through Firebase Hosting. Firebase Hosting processes the IP addresses of incoming requests to deliver and protect the site and detect abuse; Google states that Hosting retains IP data for a few months. Verve does not currently use its own analytics, advertising pixels or non-essential cookies on this notice.

Founding Partner form

If you use the form, it can collect your email address, profession, one to three selected challenges, full name, clinic, gym or business name, active-client bracket, optional phone number, required participation/contact consent, optional update/marketing consent and a submission timestamp. Submissions are stored through Google Firebase and Cloud Firestore.

Emails

When you email Verve, the controller and the email-hosting provider process your address, message, attachments and related technical email metadata so the request can be answered and managed.

3. What will the planned surveys collect?

Draft surveys and survey sign-up forms use Google Forms, Sheets, Drive and Apps Script. They are closed to public responses. Verve will not collect through them unless the account or replacement provider is covered by suitable business data-processing terms and applicable transfer safeguards, and the access and deletion procedures have been tested.

When opened, the research surveys will be designed without direct identifiers: they will not request a name, email address, diagnosis or medical record in the research answers. They cannot be described as guaranteed anonymous because a timestamp, broad location, answer combination or free text could sometimes distinguish a person.

  • Member answers voluntarily supplied about pain, physiotherapy or physical limitations may reveal health-related information and will require explicit consent under Articles 6(1)(a) and 9(2)(a) GDPR.
  • Separate contact registration will be stored separately and will not be intentionally linked to survey answers.
  • Trainers must not enter a client name, diagnosis, medical record or identifying detail.
  • The surveys will not collect images, video, camera scans, body measurements or joint measurements. Questions about AI, a Digital Twin or movement scanning only test possible future concepts.

4. Why is information used, and on what legal basis?

  • Website delivery and security: to make the site available, secure it and detect abuse, based on Verve’s legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
  • Founding Partner submission: to review your request, manage the programme and send the access, testing or launch communications you request, based on consent under Article 6(1)(a). Article 6(1)(b) may also apply where you ask Verve to take steps towards an arrangement.
  • Optional updates: to send promotional or development updates only if you separately select that option, based on consent under Article 6(1)(a).
  • General enquiries: to answer and manage correspondence under Article 6(1)(f), or Article 6(1)(b) where applicable.
  • Planned product research: to understand member and trainer needs and prioritise product concepts, based on consent under Article 6(1)(a), plus explicit consent under Article 9(2)(a) for any health-related member answers.

Participation is voluntary. Providing data is not required by law or contract. Fields are required only if you choose to submit the relevant form. A submission does not guarantee admission to a pilot or programme.

5. Who can access it and which providers are used?

Access to row-level records is limited to Elias Hadchity and people specifically authorised to support Verve under confidentiality obligations.

Google Firebase provides website hosting and Cloud Firestore for the Founding Partner form. The email-hosting provider processes messages sent to and from the @vervetwin.com addresses. A future survey provider will be identified under suitable business data-processing terms before survey collection opens.

Verve does not sell personal data or use it for third-party advertising. Raw submissions are not shared with gyms, trainers, clinicians, advertisers, LIST, research partners or business partners. Genuinely aggregated findings may be shared only when people are not reasonably identifiable.

6. International processing

Service providers may process information in the European Economic Area and in other countries. Where required, transfers outside the EEA must rely on an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. You may request details of the safeguards that apply to your information at privacy@vervetwin.com.

The personal Google account holding the draft surveys is not being presented as a Verve contracted processor. The surveys will remain closed until an appropriate arrangement is in place.

7. How long is information kept?

  • Founding Partner submissions: no longer than 24 months after submission, or until consent is withdrawn, whichever comes first, unless a longer period is legally necessary.
  • Future research survey answers: no longer than 12 months after submission, then deleted or irreversibly anonymised.
  • Separate future survey-testing/contact details: no longer than 24 months after submission or until consent is withdrawn.
  • General emails: only as long as reasonably needed to answer and document the matter, subject to applicable legal retention or limitation periods.

Before surveys open, Verve will implement and test deletion across the original forms, response sheets, analysis files, exports and working copies. Aggregated statistics that no longer identify anyone may be kept longer.

8. Your data-protection rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your personal data, and object where that right applies. You may withdraw consent at any time by emailing privacy@vervetwin.com. Withdrawal does not affect processing carried out lawfully before it.

Verve normally responds within one month. For a future survey designed without direct identifiers, Verve may be unable to locate one response. You may provide the survey type, language, approximate submission date and time, and only the minimum non-sensitive details needed to try to locate it.

You may complain to Luxembourg’s Commission nationale pour la protection des données (CNPD). Open the CNPD complaint information.

9. Automated processing and updates

Verve does not use the records covered by this notice for solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. Future survey answers may be grouped, counted and checked for data quality, but not used to diagnose, treat or medically assess a respondent.

This notice may be updated if the forms, providers or purposes change. The latest version and update date will remain at this URL.
