Photographic Information You Provide to Us

 

The Company collects photographic data through the mobile application. This includes “end ride photos” that riders are required to take and submit upon completing their ride, as well as any photos sent during interactions with our customer support team. These photos are used to verify ride completion, ensure the safety and proper use of our vehicles, and assist in resolving customer support queries.

 

Use of the camera and images in the Mobile Application:

Depending on the installed operating system, the user must explicitly grant the permission or can revoke it on a case-by-case basis. The data that we may access within the framework of authorizations will only be used for the purposes indicated in this Privacy Statement. Access to the camera feature is required to scan the vehicle's QR code to rent it. The camera may also be necessary to verify driving license and user identity.
