VrapOn Driver App

Privacy and Policy

I. Introduction

When you use VrapOn Driver, you trust us with your personal data. We are committed to maintaining this trust. That starts with helping you understand our privacy practices.

This notice describes the personal data (“data”) we collect, how it is used, shared, and your choices about that data.

We recommend that you read this in conjunction with our privacy overview, which highlights key points about our privacy practices.

II. Collection and use of data

A. Data We Collect

VrapOn Driver collects data:

* provided by users to VrapOn Driver, such as during account creation
* generated while using our services, such as location, app usage, and device data
* from other sources, such as other users or account owners, business partners, vendors, and government authorities

For your convenience, we have provided a visual overview of the data we collect and how we use it here.
VrapOn Driver collects the following data:

1. Data provided by users. This includes:

* User profile information:
We collect data when users create or update their VrapOn Driver accounts.
This may include their name, email, phone number, username and password, address, and profile picture.

* Demographic data:
We may collect demographic data about users, such as date/age, and gender when requested for certain VrapOn Driver services or programs.
We may also derive demographic data from other data collected from users.
For example, we may infer a user’s gender based on their name to enable security features such as displaying personalized advertisements for third-party products or services.
See the section titled “How We Use Personal Data” below for more information.
We may also collect demographic data through user surveys.
2. Data generated while using our services. This includes:

* Location data (driver and order taker):
We collect exact or approximate location data from mobile devices of drivers and order takers when the VrapOn Driver app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) or background (app open but not on screen ).

We collect users’ location data to enable travel, for user support, for security and fraud detection purposes, and to comply with legal requirements. We collect location information (including GPS coordinates and WiFi data) based on your app settings, and device permissions (where applicable).

VrapOn Driver collects such data from the time an order is requested until it is completed, and each time the application runs in the foreground (app open and on-screen). We collect the exact location of your device 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). We may also collect your exact location for a limited time after you exit the App in order to detect and investigate travel incidents.

See “Choice and Transparency” below for information on how drivers and order takers can enable accurate location data collection.

The app uses location data in the background to provide you with accurate information about taxi requests, customer locations, and traffic conditions. By using the app, you agree to allow VrapOn Driver to collect and use your location data in the background.

Drivers can use the VrapOn Driver apps without enabling the collection of location data from their mobile devices.

However, this may affect some features in the VrapOn Driver application. For example, a user who has not enabled accurate location data will have to manually enter his/her address.

In addition, precise location data collected by a user’s device during a trip is associated with the user’s account, even if the user has not enabled the collection of precise location data from their device.

VrapOn Driver collects location data to identify the fastest route with less traffic thus improving customer service, also to determine which of the drivers is closest to the customer’s request. This data will also be collected when the application is closed or not in use.

* Transaction information:
We collect transaction information related to the use of our services, including the type of services requested or provided; trip or order details (such as date and time, addresses requested, distance traveled and items ordered) and payment transaction information (such as a customer’s name and location, amount charged and payment method).

We also associate a user’s name with that of anyone who uses their promo code.

* Usage data:
We collect data about how users interact with our services. This includes dates and times of access, app features or pages viewed, browser type, and app interruptions, and other system activity.

* Device data:
We collect data about the devices used to access our services, including hardware models, device IP addresses or other unique device identifiers, operating systems and versions, software, preferred languages, advertising identifiers, data on device movement, and mobile network data.

3. Data from other sources. This includes:

* VrapOn Driver business partners through which users create or access their VrapOn Driver account, such as payment providers, social media services or applications, or websites that use VrapOn Driver’s APIs or whose APIs VrapOn Driver uses.
