[SOLVED]Mounting partition at boot with right permissions

I need to mount my /dev/sda7 partition when I login so I added the following lines to /etc/fstab

# /dev/sda7 LABEL=Data
UUID=9E70298C70296BE9	/home/gyosko/Data	auto	rw,user,auto	0	0

I got the UUID by reading the output of

blkid
/dev/sda7: LABEL="Data" UUID="9E70298C70296BE9" TYPE="ntfs" PARTLABEL="Basic data partition" PARTUUID="0ddc5fe2-ff5e-434b-99df-76d035105f83"

The problem is that I can't even read the partition when it is mounted because root is the owner of Data directory.

Before mounting:

ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 2 gyosko gyosko 4096 22 giu 17.23 Data

After mounting:

ls -l
drwx------ 1 root   root   4096 20 giu 21.05 Data

How can I mount the partition and be the owner so that I can read/write without problem?
