Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6th October 2026

1. Who we are and what this policy covers

Wealth Of Wisdom (“WOW”) is run by WOWISE - FZCO, a free zone company in Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In this policy, “WOW”, “we”, “us” and “our” mean that company.

This policy explains how we collect, use, share and protect personal data through:

  • the website at wealthofwisdom.io;
  • the emails we send, including project updates; and
  • the access we give members on the website, including Access Pass levels and the Learning Lab.

We are the controller of the personal data described in this policy. That means we decide how and why it is used. The service providers described in section 6 process data on our behalf, but responsibility for your data under this policy sits with us.

2. The data we hold

We aim to hold only what we need to run the website and look after members:

  • Email address. This is the only thing you must give us to subscribe. You sign in with a code or link sent to it, so we hold no passwords.
  • Name, where you have given it to us.
  • Your access. If you hold an Access Pass, its level (1 to 5) and expiry date; and whether you bought the Learning Lab.
  • Project tags. A record of the projects you hold an interest in, so that each project’s updates reach only its holders.
  • Purchase records. If you bought an Access Pass or the Learning Lab from us in the past, a record of that purchase, kept for our tax and accounting records.
  • Correspondence. If you email us or reply to one of our emails, your message, our reply and the contact details you give us.
  • Project applications. If you apply to us with a project, the details you send, including founders’ names and contact details.
  • Usage data. Our emails record whether they were opened and which links were clicked, and beehiiv gives us analytics on how the website is used. Both include data derived from your device, browser and IP address, such as device type and approximate location. Section 12 explains this in more detail.

Nothing is sold on this website, so we collect no payment details here. We do not ask for sensitive personal data, such as health, political or religious information. Please do not send it to us.

3. How we collect it

From you, when you subscribe, sign in or write to us.

From our own records. If you were a member of our previous website, we brought your email address, name and access details across to this one so that your access continues.

Automatically, through beehiiv, when you open or click our emails or visit the website.

We do not buy lists or collect data about you from data brokers.

4. Why we use it, and our legal bases

We use your data only for the purposes below. The legal bases are stated for readers in the UK and the European Economic Area, where the law requires us to identify one for each purpose.

  • Giving you the access you hold (your Access Pass level, the Learning Lab, and updates on the projects you hold an interest in), using your email address, name, access details and project tags. Legal basis: performance of our agreement with you.
  • Sending you our other emails, using your email address and name. Legal basis: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time by unsubscribing.
  • Keeping you off our list after you unsubscribe, using a minimal record of your email address. Legal basis: compliance with electronic marketing laws, and our legitimate interests.
  • Understanding what members read, using email open and click data. Legal basis: our legitimate interests in improving what we send (section 12 explains how to prevent this).
  • Understanding how the website is used, using website analytics. Legal basis: your consent, given through the cookie banner (see the Cookie Notice).
  • Replying to you, using your correspondence. Legal basis: our legitimate interests in answering the people who write to us.
  • Assessing project applications, using the details founders send us. Legal basis: our legitimate interests in considering the projects put to us.
  • Keeping the website secure and preventing fraud and misuse, using device, IP-derived and usage data. Legal basis: our legitimate interests in protecting members and our systems.
  • Keeping tax and accounting records, using purchase records. Legal basis: compliance with our legal obligations.

We do not make decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you by automated means. Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have weighed those interests against your rights, and you can object at any time (see section 9).

5. Emails and unsubscribing

Every email we send contains an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing stops our emails. If you hold an Access Pass or Learning Lab access, signing in and project updates both work through your email address, so unsubscribing may affect them. If you are unsure, write to us first at [email protected].

6. Who we share it with

We share personal data only with the following recipients, and only as far as needed:

  • beehiiv, based in the USA, which hosts this website, our member list and sign-in, and sends our emails. beehiiv processes your data on our behalf as our processor, and also for its own limited purposes as an independent controller under its own privacy notice.
  • Google, whose Google Workspace service runs our business email. Correspondence with us is stored there.
  • Professional advisers, such as lawyers and accountants, where we need their advice or services.
  • A buyer or successor, if WOW or its business is sold, merged or reorganised. Your data would remain protected by this policy or one at least as protective, and we would tell you about the change.
  • Authorities, courts and regulators, where the law requires us to disclose data.

We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it with anyone for their own advertising.

7. International transfers

We are based in the United Arab Emirates, and beehiiv and Google process data in the United States. Your personal data will therefore be processed outside your own country, including outside the UK and the EEA if you are there.

Where UK or EU law applies to a transfer, we rely on safeguards recognised by that law, such as the standard contractual clauses in our providers’ data-processing terms. You can ask us for details of the safeguards that apply to a particular transfer.

8. How long we keep it

  • While you are subscribed or hold access, we keep your member record.
  • After you unsubscribe, we keep a permanent minimal record (your email address, marked as opted out) so that we never email you again by mistake. Everything else is deleted or anonymised within 24 months, except as set out below.
  • Purchase records are kept for up to 7 years to meet tax and accounting obligations.
  • Correspondence and project applications are kept for up to 24 months after the matter closes.
  • Aggregated analytics that no longer identify anyone may be kept longer.

9. Your rights

If you are in the UK or the EEA, you have the right to:

  • access the personal data we hold about you;
  • have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected;
  • have your data erased, in certain circumstances;
  • restrict our processing, in certain circumstances;
  • receive data you gave us in a machine-readable format (portability);
  • object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to direct marketing;
  • withdraw consent at any time where we rely on it (this does not affect processing before you withdrew it); and
  • complain to a supervisory authority, including the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) or the data protection authority in the EU country where you live or work.

If you are in the UAE, WOW is established in the UAE and is subject to the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021). You have rights of access, correction and deletion under that law, and you may complain to the UAE Data Office.

If you are in California, we do not sell or share personal information, as the California Consumer Privacy Act defines those terms, and we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information.

If you are elsewhere, you may have similar rights under your local law. We aim to honour reasonable privacy requests from any member, wherever you live.

How to exercise your rights. Email us at [email protected]. To protect your data, we may need to verify your identity first, usually by asking you to write from the email address on your membership. We respond within the time the law requires, generally one month for UK and EEA requests, extendable for complex requests where the law allows, in which case we will tell you.

10. Children

WOW is not directed at anyone under 18, and our Terms of Service require members to be 18 or over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe someone under 18 has given us their data, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Security

We protect personal data with appropriate technical and organisational measures, applied largely through our providers: beehiiv and Google each maintain security programmes that include encryption of data in transit and access controls, and we limit access to member data to those who need it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a personal data breach affects you, we will notify you and the relevant authorities where the law requires it.

12. Cookies and email tracking

Email tracking. Our emails contain a small tracking pixel, a tiny invisible image that loads when you open the email, and tracked links that record which links you click. Together these measure opens and clicks, along with basic technical details such as device type and approximate location derived from your IP address. We use this to understand what members value, relying on our legitimate interests (see section 4). You can prevent open tracking by blocking remote images in your email app, and avoid click tracking by typing links into your browser instead of clicking them. Unsubscribing stops all measurement.

Cookies. Our website uses cookies and similar technologies, explained in our Cookie Notice, which also describes how consent works and how to change your choices.

Advertising pixels. We do not use any advertising pixels (such as the Meta pixel) on our website or in our emails. If we introduce one, we will update this policy and the Cookie Notice first, and ask for your consent where the law requires it.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time, for example when we change providers or add features. The version published on this page is the current one. If we make a material change, we will tell you by email or by a prominent notice on the website before it takes effect, and where a change requires your consent under applicable law, we will ask for it first.

14. Contact us

For any question, request or complaint about your personal data or this policy, email us at [email protected].

We encourage you to contact us first with any privacy concern, since most issues can be resolved quickly and directly. Doing so never limits your rights: you remain free to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, your local EU data protection authority, or any other regulator with authority over you, at any time.
