5. Sharing Your Information

We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in section 4:

  • Drivers/Employees/Contractors: To enable them to carry out the booked journeys. We only provide the necessary information required for the specific service.
  • Service Providers: Third-party companies that provide services on our behalf, such as payment processing, IT and system administration, booking system software, communication tools, cloud hosting, and analytics.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions. We will never sell your personal data to third parties.

6. Data Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. These measures include:

  • Secure servers and data encryption where appropriate.
  • Access controls to limit access to personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.
  • Regular security reviews and updates.
  • Training for staff on data protection.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

7. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, along with the applicable legal requirements (e.g., financial records must often be kept for 6 years). Journey details may be kept for a period necessary to handle complaints, insurance claims, or regulatory inquiries.

When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or anonymise it.

8. Your Data Protection Rights

Under UK data protection law, you have rights including:

  • Right of Access: To request copies of your personal data.
  • Right to Rectification: To request correction of inaccurate personal data.
  • Right to Erasure: To request deletion of your personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.
  • Right to Restrict Processing: To request the suspension of processing of your personal data in certain scenarios.
  • Right to Data Portability: To request the transfer of your personal data to you or a third party in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (where processing is based on consent or contract and is automated).
  • Right to Object: To object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent: To withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services may involve the transportation of children. We collect minimal necessary data about children for booking and safety purposes, always striving to obtain parental or guardian consent where required. We implement specific safeguards for children's data and their physical safety during transport, in line with best practices and regulatory guidance.

10. International Data Transfers

We generally do not transfer your personal data outside the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA). If we do need to transfer data internationally (e.g., if using a service provider based outside these areas), we will ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring appropriate safeguards are in place, such as adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the UK authorities.
