Location
RideIn Partner may collect precise location while the app is in use so we can offer nearby trips, show driver position during a booking, and support navigation. Location access can be controlled in your device settings. Turning location off may limit core Partner features.
Permissions on mobile devices
Depending on the app and feature, RideIn may request access to:
- Camera or photos — for profile images, documents, or trip evidence
- Storage / files — to upload verification documents
- Location — for trip matching and live trip status
- Notifications — for booking and trip alerts
You can deny or revoke permissions in your device settings.
Sharing
We share information only as needed to run the service, including:
- With the other party to a trip (for example limited name and contact details)
- With infrastructure and messaging providers that help us send OTP SMS or host data
- With map / routing providers when calculating routes and estimates
- When required by law, regulation, or to protect safety and prevent fraud
Retention
We keep account, booking, and verification records for as long as needed to operate the service, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations. When a RideIn Partner driver requests account deletion, sign-in is blocked immediately and personal account data is scheduled for permanent removal after 30 days, unless a longer hold is required by law or an active investigation.
Your choices
- RideIn Partner drivers can request account deletion at https://business.rideincabs.com/deleteaccountdriver
- Customers can email support@rideincabs.com to ask about access, correction, or deletion of their account information
- You can update profile details in the relevant app or website where available
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encrypted transport (HTTPS) for our services. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children
RideIn is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us so we can delete it.
Changes
We may update this policy when our products or practices change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
