Welcome to inDrive. This policy describes our approach to dealing with personal data of inDrive users (“you” or “yours”).

In the United States, inDrive is provided and controlled by inDrive CA LLC (“we” or “us”).

This policy applies when you use inDrive websites, mobile applications, products, content or services (collectively “Platform” or “inDrive”), or when you contact us. The policy does not cover how we handle information about our candidates, employees or business partners.

We will comply with applicable local laws in relation to all practices described in this policy. If there is an inconsistency between this policy and the local law, we will comply with the local law to the extent of the inconsistency.

Users that request or receive transportation, logistics, or courier services via inDrive are referred to as “Passengers”, and individuals who provide these services to Passengers are referred to as “Drivers”.

What information we collect

We collect three categories of information about you: information you provide, information we collect automatically, and information we obtain from other sources.

We do not collect information about your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions or membership of any political association, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade-union membership, genetic data, or data concerning a person’s sex life or sexual orientation.

Information you provide

Registration and Passenger information may include first name, phone number, email, country, and city. Where permitted or required by law, we may collect your selfie image for liveness checks, national ID numbers and social media accounts for safety purposes, as well as emergency contact numbers. Without providing this information you will not be able to use inDrive or some of its features. If you wish, you may additionally provide your last name, and profile picture.

Driver information may include driver’s full name, profile picture, license data and status, information about the vehicle (type, make, model, year of manufacture, color, registration certificate data, license plate, vehicle inspection report, vehicle image), proof of identity, state identification numbers, ID document (including driver license, passport), proof of residency, home address, date of birth, gender, taxation identifier number, relevant insurance, right to work, driving record, payment or banking information, and other documents which may be required by applicable regulation. Where permitted or required by law, we may additionally collect background checks and criminal records information. This information may be processed by authorized vendors on our behalf. Without providing such information, you will not be able to register as a Driver.

User generated content that you choose to upload on inDrive, such as comments, ratings, and reviews.

Information in correspondence you send to us may include chat messages, emails with any attachments, recordings of phone calls you make to us and the related metadata.

Information for promotions. From time to time, we may run car branding, referral and other promotional programs. If you wish to participate in such programs and receive bonuses, payments or other benefits, we may ask you to provide information such as your name, email, user ID, phone number, payment or banking information, home address, social media account, vehicle type and image.

Information we collect automatically

Location information. We collect users’ location data to enable rides, provide user support, ensure safety, detect fraud, and comply with legal requirements. We collect location information (including GPS coordinates and WiFi data) based on your inDrive app settings and device permissions:

- Passengers: We collect your device’s precise location when the app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) and when the app is running in the background (app open but not on-screen) from the time you request a ride until it ends. Passengers may use the app without enabling it to collect precise location data from their mobile devices by directly inputting the pick-up and drop-off address or coordinates into the app.

- Drivers: We collect your device’s precise location when the app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) and when the app is running in the background (app open but not on-screen) in the Driver mode. Additionally, to facilitate insurance coverage, we may also collect precise location information after you exit Driver mode or when the app is closed or not in use. These additional data collection is specifically utilized to support insurance coverage and to detect and investigate ride incidents.

We may also collect and use for marketing purposes the data related to third-party services you used before interacting with inDrive.

Communications information. We enable users to communicate with each other and with us through the Platform. To facilitate this, we receive data about the time and date of the communications and the content. We may use this data to provide user support and resolve disputes between users, identify violations of inDrive rules, ensure safety, and improve our Platform.

Device information. We collect information about the device you use to access inDrive, such as your device name, brand and model, user agent, IP address, mobile carrier, network type, time zone settings, language settings, advertising identifiers, browser type, operating system and its version, screen parameters, battery state, and installed applications that can be used for authentication and anti-fraud purposes. We may also collect mobile sensor data, such as speed, direction, altitude, acceleration, deceleration, and other technical data.

User and trip IDs. We automatically assign you a user ID when you create an inDrive account, and a trip ID for each trip.

- We will retain correspondence and other documentation for as long as this is required for compliance with statutory document retention obligations. Commercial law generally requires us to retain commercial correspondence for 6 years.

- If there is a legal claim or dispute or any possibility thereof, we will retain corresponding information until the claim is satisfied/dispute is resolved or the statute of limitation expires. The statute of limitation will depend on your location but will generally require retention for 3-7 years.

The security processes in our company are developed in accordance with the ISO/IEC 27001:2013 standard, and we do our best to affirm our commitment to safeguarding your information. We regularly review our security measures to consider available new technology and methods. Since absolute security does not exist either on or off the Internet, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information, especially against maliciously intended acts by third parties where the cost for the successful attack multiplies several times the value of the data possibly compromised. Nevertheless, we make commercially reasonable efforts to keep your information safe.

Protecting children. inDrive is not directed to children (as defined in the local laws). Should we discover that we hold personal information of a child we will use reasonable endeavors to delete this data and ensure that it is not further used or shared. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at https://indrive.com/en/contacts/support/.

Telephone monitoring. Telephone conversations may be monitored and recorded for quality assurance and training purposes.

Do Not Track. Some browsers transmit “do-not-track” signals to websites. Because of differences in how browsers incorporate this feature, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.

Third-party collections. Certain third parties may use automatic information collection technologies, including cross-site tracking technologies, to collect personal information. These third parties may include your internet service provider, web browser, mobile service provider, mobile device manufacturer, online advertisers, and data analytics companies. Additionally, our Platform may contain links to third-party platforms. Clicking on such links means that the respective platform may collect your personal information. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.
