II.Data processing in our App

 

Provision of the app and creation of log files

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of the provision of the app and the creation of log files is our legitimate interest. The temporary storage of your personal data by us is necessary to enable delivery of the App's functionality. For this purpose, your personal data must be stored for the duration of the session. Data that may be collected when using the App, i.e., IP address, IP location, Geolocation, type and version of the end device used, information on the mobile network used, time zone settings, operating system and platform. The storage of your personal data in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the App. In addition, we use your personal data to optimise the App and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. Your personal data is not processed in any other way.

 

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of the collection of your personal data for the provision of the App, this is given as soon as you close the App. In the case of storage of your personal data in log files, these are deleted after 30 days at the latest. If the data is stored beyond this period, your personal data will be anonymised so that it can no longer be assigned. The collection of your personal data for the provision of the App and the storage of your personal data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the App. Consequently, there is no possibility for you to object.

 

Customer account registration

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of customer account registration is the performance of a contract. Your registration enables in particular the conclusion of contracts as well as the maintenance of our customer relationship. We collect data when you create or update your account, and this may depend on how you use our App. 

 

As a user of our services (“Rider”) this will include your name, email, phone number, login name and password, address, profile picture, payment or banking information, travel information, time of booking, time of starting and completing the fare, pick up, drop off location, route taken.

 

As a provider of services (“Driver”) this will include your name, email, phone number, login name and password, address, profile picture, payment or banking information, driver’s license and other government identification documents, birth date, gender, and photo, vehicle or insurance information, emergency contact information, and evidence of health or fitness to provide services and driver history or criminal record, license status, known aliases and prior addresses, where applicable, time of starting and completing the fare, pick up, drop off location, route taken.

 

The processing of your personal data within the scope of registration is therefore necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures as well as the successful maintenance of our relationship. Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. This is the case at the latest in the event of the termination of your customer account. You have the option to cancel your customer account registration at any time. In this case, your personal data will be deleted unless legal retention periods prevent deletion.

 

Contacting Us

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data transmitted in the course of you contacting us is our legitimate interest. If the contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, the performance of a contract is an additional legal basis for the processing of your personal data. The processing of your personal data in the event of a contact serves us solely to process your request.

 

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. This is the case for the personal data sent in the course of contacting us when your request has been processed and legal retention periods do not prevent deletion. You have the option at any time to object to the processing of your personal data in the context of contacting us for the future. In this case, however, we will not be able to process your request any further. All personal data stored in the course of contacting you will be deleted in this case, unless legal retention periods prevent deletion.

 

Launching the App

Every time you start the App, your data is synchronized, and your device communicates with our server via a signed token. The transfer is automatic and is a prerequisite for the secure functioning of the App and is therefore mandatory.

 

General app accesses

As with every server request, information such as IP address, user agent, etc. is transmitted and stored anonymously for 30 days in the server log. The provision of personal data is not required by law or contract, nor is it necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are also not obliged to provide the personal data. However, failure to provide the data could result in you not being able to use our App or not being able to use it to its full extent.

 

Network access data

The provision of network access data is necessary if you wish to make full use of our App. However, failure to provide this data could result in you not being able to use our App or not being able to use it to its full extent. Your data will be treated confidentially by us and deleted if you revoke the rights of use, or they are no longer required for the provision of services and there is no legal obligation to retain them.

 

Push messages

When you use the app, you will receive so-called push messages from us, even if you are not currently using the app. These are messages that we send you as part of the performance of the contract. You can adjust or stop receiving push messages at any time via the device settings of your end device.

Authorizations and access

We may request access or permission from your mobile device for certain features (internet, vibration, your location, and push notifications). The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest and the provision of contractual or pre-contractual measures.

 

The legal basis for data processing is our legitimate interest and the provision of contractual or pre-contractual measures. You can deactivate push notifications at any time via Settings/Messages (iOS) or Settings/Notifications/ (Android).

Uninstall

You can stop the collection of data by the App by uninstalling it using the standard uninstall procedure for your device.

 

Direct marketing

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of direct marketing measures is either your consent or our legitimate interest in marketing and promoting our courses and services. The purpose of processing your personal data in the context of direct marketing measures is to send information, offers and, if applicable, to promote sales.

 

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected; this is the case in particular upon receipt of the revocation or objection. You can revoke your consent at any time for the future or object to the processing of your personal data in the context of direct marketing measures at any time for the future.

 

When you send a data subject access request

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of handling your data subject access request is our legal obligation and the legal basis for the subsequent documentation of the data subject access request is both our legitimate interest and our legal obligation. The purpose of processing your personal data in the context of processing data when you send a data subject access request is to respond to your request. The subsequent documentation of the data subject access request serves to fulfil the legally required accountability.

 

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of the processing of a data subject access request, this is three years after the end of the respective process. You have the possibility at any time to object to the processing of your personal data in the context of the processing of a data subject access request for the future. In this case, however, we will not be able to further process your request. The documentation of the legally compliant processing of the respective data subject access request is mandatory. Consequently, there is no possibility for you to object.

 

Legal defence and enforcement of our rights

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the context of legal defence and enforcement of our rights is our legitimate interest. The purpose of processing your personal data in the context of legal defence and enforcement of our rights is the defence against unjustified claims and the legal enforcement and assertion of claims and rights.

 

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. The processing of your personal data in the context of legal defence and enforcement is mandatory for legal defence and enforcement of our rights. Consequently, there is no possibility for you to object.

 

III. Our Third-Party Providers
