Privacy policy
Last updated: 25 September 2026
Draft, pending legal review. This English page adapts the French privacy policy at kismain.fr/confidentialite.html, which is the authoritative text. It has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer. Where the two differ, the French version prevails.
You are looking to marry, and you trust us with an address so that we can let you know. It is little, but it is not nothing. Here is exactly what we do with it.
In short
- We collect three things: your email address, your gender, your country. Nothing else.
- They serve one purpose: telling you when a season opens near you.
- No cookies, no audience measurement, no advertising, nothing loaded from a third party.
- Your data stays in the European Union, and is neither sold, rented nor shared.
- You withdraw in one click, through the link in every email we send. Otherwise, after 24 months, we erase everything.
What this page covers
This page covers the site kismain.com, and it alone.
The site does one thing with personal data: it keeps a waiting list of people who want to be told when a season opens in their country. The service itself, app.kismain.fr, where seasons take place, processes far more data (conversations, an identity check, a trusted guardian, declared beliefs) and has its own, longer policy, public and readable without an account: app.kismain.fr/confidentialite (in French).
Who is responsible
The data controller is HAIDARA Cherif Ousmane, sole trader under French law, who publishes Kismain under the trading name Kisma DGlabs.
SIREN 109 276 188 · 173 rue de Courcelles, 75017 Paris, France · contact@kismain.fr. The full identity is in the legal notice.
Kismain has not appointed a data protection officer. The controller himself reads and handles your requests, at the address above.
The waiting list
Three pieces of information, a single purpose, and your consent as the only legal basis.
| Data | What it is for | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Telling you when a season opens in your country. | Your consent |
| Declared gender | Checking that sign-ups are balanced before opening a group: a season only makes sense with comparable numbers of women and men. | Your consent |
| Country | Knowing where to open a season, and whom to tell when it opens. | Your consent |
| Date of your consent, date of your confirmation | Being able to prove that you consented, as the law requires of us. | Legal obligation |
A two-step sign-up
After the form, you receive an email containing a link. Until you have clicked that link, your address is never used. This second step proves that the address is yours, and that no one signed you up in your place.
You are under no obligation to sign up. Without signing up, you can read the whole site; you will simply not be told about openings.
A precaution about the nature of this list
Kismain is designed for the Muslim community. Being on its waiting list may therefore suggest a religious belief, even though we ask you no question about it.
European law gives particular protection to information that reveals, even indirectly, religious beliefs (article 9 of the GDPR). We draw three consequences from this:
- we only sign you up with your explicit consent, given through a box you tick yourself and which is never pre-ticked;
- this list is accessible only to the controller, behind authentication;
- it is never passed on to anyone, nor cross-referenced with another file, nor used for advertising.
The service is open to any adult: a sign-up says nothing, in itself, about what you believe. We prefer, however, to treat this list as if it did.
What we do not collect
This site sets no cookies and loads nothing from a third party. There is therefore no consent banner: there is nothing to consent to.
| What many sites do | Here | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Cookies and trackers | None | No cookie, no storage in your browser. |
| Audience measurement | None | We do not know how many people visit this site, and we accept that. |
| Advertising, social networks, pixels | None | Links to other sites are plain links: nothing is transmitted until you click. |
| Fonts, scripts or videos served by a third party | None | Fonts and films are served by our own servers. |
| IP address in our files | No | Our form records neither your IP address nor the model of your device. |
One clarification, out of honesty: like any web server, our host's server keeps a technical log of connections (IP address, date, page requested), needed for the security of the site. We do not consult it to identify you and never match it with the waiting list.
Who has access
One person reads your data: the controller. One provider stores it: our host.
| Who | Their role | What they may do with it |
|---|---|---|
| The controller | Keeps the list and composes the seasons. | Write to you to tell you about an opening. Nothing else. |
| Hostinger International Limited | Processor: hosts the site, its database and the sending of our emails. | Store the data on our behalf. It is forbidden from using it for its own purposes. |
| The service app.kismain.fr | Same controller, same host. It receives a copy of your confirmed sign-up. | Offer you a place when a season opens, without you having to enter everything again. |
Your data is neither sold, rented, exchanged, nor passed on to a partner, an advertiser or another person on the list. It could only be disclosed to an authority if the law obliges us to, upon a lawful request.
Where your data is kept
In France, on servers located in the European Union. No data described on this page leaves the European Union.
How long we keep it
| Situation | Duration |
|---|---|
| Sign-up never confirmed | Erased after 30 days. |
| Confirmed sign-up | 24 months from the sign-up, or until your withdrawal if it comes first. |
| Withdrawal requested | Immediate erasure on the site. The copy held by the service is erased within 30 days, a period that allows a withdrawal made by mistake to be undone. |
Your rights, and how to exercise them
Access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and withdrawal of consent at any time: one email is enough.
To withdraw, click the link at the bottom of any of our emails: your address is removed at once, without justification. For any other request, write to contact@kismain.fr. We answer within one month. We may ask you to confirm the request from the address concerned, to be sure it comes from you.
If you believe your rights are not respected, you may lodge a complaint with the French supervisory authority, the CNIL (cnil.fr), or with the data protection authority of the country where you live.
Changes to this page
If what we do with your data changes, this page changes first, and its date with it.
A change that affects what you consented to would be put to you again, by email, before it applies. Silence would never count as agreement.
