WHIDE PRIVACY POLICY 

Updated April 22, 2022

    1. Privacy Policy

    When you use WHIDE, you trust us with your personal data. We're committed to keeping that trust. That starts with helping you understand our privacy practices.

    This privacy policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their 'Personally Identifiable Information' (PII) is being used online. PII, as described in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context. Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.

    2. Overview

    This policy describes how WHIDE and its affiliates collect and use personal data. This policy applies to all users of our apps, websites, features, or other services anywhere in the world. This notice specifically applies to:

     

    Riders: individuals who request or receive transportation, including those who receive transportation requested by another individual

    Drivers: Individuals who provide transportation to Riders individually or through partner transportation companies

    Delivery recipients: Individuals who request or receive parcel or other products and services, including via WHIDE anything service.

    Delivery persons/partner: Who provide delivery services, including via WHIDE anything.  

    This policy also governs WHIDE's other collections of personal data in connection with its services. For example, we may collect the contact information of individuals who use accounts owned by WHIDE for Business customers, or of owners or employees of restaurants or store or other merchants; personal data of those who start but do not complete applications to be drivers or delivery persons; or other personal data in connection with our mapping technology and features.

    All those subject to this policy are referred to as “users” in this policy.

    In addition, please note the following:

    Our practices are subject to applicable laws in the places in which we operate. This means that we engage in the practices described in this notice in a particular country or region only if permitted under the laws of those places.

    3. Data collections and uses

    The data we collect

    WHIDE collects personal data:

    • Provided by users to WHIDE, such as during account creation
    • Created during use of our services, such as location, app usage, and device data
    • From other sources, such as other users or account owners, business partners, vendors, insurance and financial solution providers, and governmental authorities

    Data provided by users. This includes:

    User profile: We collect data when users create or update their WHIDE accounts. This may include their name, email, phone number, login name and password, address, profile picture, payment or banking information (including related payment verification information), driver's license and other government identification documents (which may indicate document numbers as well as birth date, gender, and photo). This also includes vehicle or insurance information of drivers and delivery persons, emergency contact information, user settings, and evidence of health or fitness to provide services using WHIDE apps.

    This also includes gender and/or occupation (when required for certain WHIDE services or programs, such as WHIDE Cash or features that enable women to provide services or receive services to/from other women).

    We may use the photos submitted by users to verify their identities, such as through facial verification technologies. For more information, please see the section titled “How we use personal data.”

    Background check and identity verification: In order to verify drivers' and delivery persons' eligibility to provide services through the WHIDE apps, we may collect information such as driver history or criminal record (where permitted by law), license status, known aliases and prior addresses, and right to work. This information may be collected by an authorized vendor on WHIDE's behalf.

    Demographic data: We may collect demographic data about users, including through user surveys. In some countries, we may also receive demographic data about users from third parties.

    We may also infer demographic data from other data collected from users. For example, where necessary to enable features that allow women to provide or receive services from other women, we may infer gender using their first name. In such cases, we enable users to change their gender if necessary via in-app settings.

    User content: We collect the data submitted by users when they contact WHIDE customer support, provide ratings or compliments for other users, restaurants or merchants, or otherwise contact WHIDE. This may include feedback, photographs or other recordings collected by users, including audio or video recordings or GPS coordinates (such as from dashcams or GPS device) submitted by users in connection with customer support. This also includes metadata relating to the method you use to communicate with WHIDE.

    4. Data created during use of our services.

    This includes:

    Location data (driver and delivery person): We collect drivers' and delivery persons' precise or approximate location data, including to enable rides and deliveries, to enable ride/delivery tracking and safety features, to prevent and detect fraud, and to satisfy legal requirements. WHIDE collects this data when the WHIDE app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) or background (app open but not on-screen) of their mobile device.

    Location data (riders and delivery recipients). We collect riders' and delivery recipients' precise or approximate location data to enable and enhance use of our apps, including to improve pick-ups, facilitate deliveries, enable safety features, and prevent and detect fraud. Please see our Rider Location Help page for detailed information on how we use this data.

    We collect such data from users' mobile devices if they enable us to do so. (See “Choice and transparency” below for information on how riders and delivery recipients can enable location data collection). WHIDE collects such data from the time a ride or delivery is requested until it is finished (and may indicate such collection via an icon or notification on your mobile device depending on your device's operating system), and any time the app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) of their mobile device.

    Riders and delivery recipients may use the WHIDE apps without enabling WHIDE to collect precise location data from their mobile devices. However, this may affect features in the WHIDE apps. For example, a user who has not enabled location data collection will have to manually enter their pick-up address. In addition, the location data collected from a driver during a trip will be linked to the rider's account, even if the rider has not enabled location data to be collected from their device, including for purposes of receipt generation, customer support, fraud detection, insurance, and litigation.

    Transaction information: We collect transaction information related to the use of our services, including the type of services requested or provided, order details, payment transaction information (such as a restaurant's or merchant's name and location and amount of transaction), delivery information, date and time the service was provided, amount charged, distance travelled, and payment method. Additionally, if someone uses your promotion code, we may associate your name with that person.

    Usage data: We collect data about how users interact with our services. This includes data such as access dates and times, app features or pages viewed, app crashes and other system activity, and type of browser. We may also collect data regarding the third-party sites or services used before interacting with our services, which we use for marketing. (Please see "How We Use Data" below for more information on how we market our services to users).

    In some cases, we collect this data through cookies, pixels, tags, and similar tracking technologies that create and maintain unique identifiers. To learn more about these technologies, please see our Cookie Notice. 

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

    Communications data: We enable users to communicate with each other and WHIDE through WHIDE's mobile apps and websites. For example, we enable drivers and riders, and delivery persons and delivery recipients, to call, text, or send other files to each other (generally without disclosing their telephone numbers to each other). To provide this service, WHIDE receives some data regarding the calls, texts, or other communications, including the date and time of the communications and the content of the communications. WHIDE may also use this data for customer support services (including to resolve disputes between users), for safety and security purposes, to improve our services and features, and for analytics.

    Safety recordings: In certain jurisdictions, and where permitted by law, users can record the audio and/or video of their trips through an in-app feature or using a dashcam. In app recordings are encrypted and stored on users' devices, and are only shared with WHIDE if submitted to customer support by the users in connection with safety incidents. Please see here more information.

    Data from other sources. These include:

    • Users participating in our referral programs. For example, when a user refers to another person, we receive the referred person's personal data from that user.
    • WHIDE account owners who request services for or on behalf of other users, or who enable such users to request or receive services through their accounts. This includes owners of WHIDE for Business accounts.
    • users or others providing information in connection with claims or disputes.
    • WHIDE business partners through which users create or access their WHIDE account, such as payment providers, social media services, or apps or websites that use WHIDE's APIs or whose APIs WHIDE uses. 
    • WHIDE business partners in connection with debit or credit cards issued by a financial institution in partnership with WHIDE to the extent disclosed in the terms and conditions for the card.
    • vendors who help us verify users' identity, background information, and eligibility to work, or who screen users in connection with sanctions, anti-money laundering, or know-your-customer requirements insurance, vehicle, or financial services providers for drivers and/or delivery persons
    • partner transportation companies (for drivers or delivery persons who use our services through an account associated with such a company)
    • publicly available sources
    • marketing service providers or data resellers whose data WHIDE uses for marketing or research
    • law enforcement officials, public health officials, and other government authorities

    WHIDE may combine the data collected from these sources with other data in its possession.

    How we use personal data

    WHIDE uses personal data to enable reliable and convenient transportation, delivery, and other products and services. We also use such data:

    • to enhance the safety and security of our users and services
    • for customer support  
    • for research and development  
    • to enable communications between users 
    • to send marketing and non-marketing communications to users
    • in connection with legal proceedings

    WHIDE does not sell or share user personal data with third parties for their direct marketing, except with users' consent.

    We use personal data we collect:

     1. To provide our services. WHIDE uses data to provide, personalize, maintain, and improve our services.

    This includes using data to:

    • To create/update accounts
    • transportation and delivery services (such as using location data to facilitate a pick up or delivery), features that involve data sharing (such as fare splitting, ETA sharing, and ratings and compliments), and accessibility features to facilitate use of our services by those with disabilities
    • process payments
    • track and share the progress of rides or deliveries
    • create WHIDE travel itineraries and offer related services, such as rides to the airport, rental car reservations, or food deliveries. 
    • personalize users' accounts. We may, for example, present an WHIDE Eats user with personalized restaurant or food recommendations based on their prior orders. Please see the section of this notice titled “Choice and transparency” to learn how to object to this use of personal data.
    • facilitate insurance, vehicle, invoicing, or financing solutions
    • perform necessary operations to maintain our services, including to troubleshoot software bugs and operational problems; to conduct data analysis, testing, and research; and to monitor and analyze usage and activity trends.

    WHIDE performs the above activities, including the collection and use of location data for purposes of these activities, on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfill our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users.

    Safety and security. We use personal data to help maintain the safety, security, and integrity of our services and users. This includes:

    verifying users' identity and eligibility to provide transportation or deliveries, including through reviews of background checks, where permitted by law, to help prevent use of our services by unsafe drivers and/or riders.

    In certain regions, this includes WHIDE's Real-Time ID Check feature, which prompts drivers and delivery persons to share a selfie before going online to help ensure that the driver or delivery person using the app matches the WHIDE account we have on file. Where permitted by law, this also includes performing facial verification of photographs submitted by users, or collected from public databases, to prevent identity-borrowing or to verify users' identities.

    Using data from drivers' or delivery persons' devices to detect unsafe driving behavior such as speeding or harsh braking and acceleration, and to inform them of safer driving practices. We also use data from delivery persons' devices to verify the type of vehicles they used to provide deliveries.

    Using device, location, user profile, usage, and other data to prevent, detect, and combat fraud. This includes identifying fraudulent accounts or uses of our services, preventing use of our services by unauthorized drivers or delivery persons, verifying user identities in connection with certain payment methods, and preventing and combating unauthorized access to users' accounts.

    Using user ratings, reported incidents, and other feedback to encourage compliance with our Community Guidelines and as grounds for deactivating users with low ratings or who otherwise violated such guidelines in certain countries.

    Sharing information regarding serious driver or delivery person safety incidents or compliance with local regulations with third parties, including other companies who enable users to request or provide rides or delivery services, or intermediaries who collect and report such information for multiple companies, to prevent drivers or delivery persons who may pose a safety risk to the platform or its users from using WHIDE's or those other companies' services. We may also share with third parties, including those affected by such incidents, whether the incidents result in account deactivation.

    Using ratings, usage and other data to prevent matching of riders and drivers for whom there is higher risk of conflict (for instance, because one user previously gave the other a one-star rating).

    WHIDE performs the above activities on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfill our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users, and/or for purposes of the legitimate safety and security interests of WHIDE or other parties, including users and members of the general public.

    Customer support. 

    WHIDE uses the information we collect (which may include call recordings) to provide customer support, including to investigate and address user concerns and to monitor and improve our customer support responses and processes.

    WHIDE performs the above activities on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfill our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users.

    Research and development. 

    We may use personal data for testing, research, analysis, product development, and machine learning to improve the user experience. This helps us make our services more convenient and easier-to-use, enhance the safety and security of our services, and develop new services and features.

    WHIDE performs the above activities on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfil our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users in improving our existing services and features, or for purposes of WHIDE's legitimate interests developing new services and features.

    Enabling communications between users. For example, a driver may message or call a rider to confirm a pickup location, a rider may contact a driver to retrieve a lost item, or a restaurant or delivery person may call a delivery recipient with information about their order.

    WHIDE performs the above activities on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfill our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users.

    Marketing

    WHIDE may use personal data to market our services to our users. This includes sending users communications about WHIDE services, features, promotions, sweepstakes, studies, surveys, news, updates, and events. We may do so through various methods, including email, text messages, push notifications, in app communications and ads, and ads on third party platforms.

    We may also inform users about products and services offered by WHIDE partners. For example, we may provide recommendations, promotions, or ads for WHIDE partners based on users' past delivery orders. Although we inform users about products and services offered by WHIDE partners, we do not sell users' personal data to, or share it with, such partners or others for purposes of their own direct marketing or advertising, except with users' consent.

    We may use the data we collect, including in combination with advertising partners' data, to personalize and improve the marketing communications (including ads) that we send on and off WHIDE's apps and websites, including based on user location, use of WHIDE's services, and user preferences and settings. For example, we share user data (such as hashed email address, usage information, and device or user identifiers) with Facebook, Instagram, google  to personalize and improve our ads for WHIDE's services.

    For information about how to opt out of certain marketing communications (including ads) from WHIDE and its advertising partners, please see the section titled “Marketing choices.”

    WHIDE performs the above activities on the grounds that they are necessary to fulfill our obligations to users under our Terms of Use or other agreements with users, or for purposes of WHIDE's and it's users legitimate interests in informing users about events that may have an impact on how they can use WHIDE services.

    Automated decision-making

    We use personal data to make automated decisions relating to use of our services. This includes:

    • Enabling dynamic pricing, in which the price of a ride, or the delivery fee for WHIDE Eats orders, is determined based on constantly varying factors such as the estimated time and distance, the predicted route, estimated traffic, and the number of riders and drivers using WHIDE at a given moment.
    • Matching available drivers and delivery persons to users requesting services. Users can be matched based on availability, proximity, and other factors such as likelihood to accept a trip based on their past behavior or preferences. Please see here for further information about our matching process.
    • determining user ratings, and deactivating users with low ratings. In the European Union or where otherwise required by law, such deactivation occurs only after human review and/or the possibility to appeal. For more information about how ratings are determined and used, please see here for rider ratings, here for driver ratings, and here for delivery person ratings. Please also see the section below titled “Ratings look-up” for further information.
    • Flagging users who are identified as having engaged in fraud, unsafe activity, or other activities that may harm WHIDE, its users, and others. In some cases, such as when a user is determined to be abusing WHIDE's referral program or has submitted fraudulent documents, such behavior may result in automatic deactivation, or in the European Union or where otherwise required by law, deactivation after human review.
    • using driver location information, and communications between riders and drivers, to identify cancellation fees earned or induced through fraud. For example, if we determine by using such information that a driver is delaying a rider pickup in order to induce a cancellation, we will not charge the rider a cancellation fee and will adjust the amounts paid to the driver to omit such a fee. To object to such an adjustment, please contact WHIDE customer support.
    • Using driver data (such as location, rating and gender) and rider data (such as rating, origin and destination) to help avoid pairings of users that may result in increased risk of conflict.
    • Click the links in this section for more information about these processes. To object to a deactivation resulting from these processes, please contact WHIDE customer support.

    • WHIDE business partners. For example, if a user requests a service through a partnership or promotional offering made by a third party, WHIDE may share certain data with those third parties.

    With the WHIDE account owner

    If a user requests transportation or places an order using an account owned by another party, we may share their order or trip information, including location data, with the owner of that account. This occurs, for example, when:

    A rider uses their employer's WHIDE for Business profile, such as when they take trips arranged through WHIDE Central

    A driver or delivery person uses an account owned by or associated with an WHIDE partner transportation company or restaurant

    A rider takes a trip arranged by a friend or under a Family Profile

    WHIDE may share users' personal data if we believe it's required by applicable law, regulation, operating license or agreement, legal process or governmental request, or where the disclosure is otherwise appropriate due to safety or similar concerns.

    This includes sharing personal data with law enforcement officials, public health officials, other government authorities, airports (if required by the airport authorities as a condition of operating on airport property), or other third parties as necessary to enforce our Terms of Service, user agreements, or other policies; to protect WHIDE's rights or property or the rights, safety, or property of others; or in the event of a claim or dispute relating to the use of our services.

    WHIDE may share a user's personal data other than as described in this notice if we notify the user and they consent to the sharing.

    Data retention and deletion

    WHIDE retains user data for as long as necessary for the purposes described above.

    Users may request deletion of their accounts at any time. WHIDE may retain user data after a deletion request due to legal or regulatory requirements or for reasons stated in this policy.

    WHIDE retains user data for as long as necessary for the purposes described above. This means that we retain different categories of data for different periods of time depending on the type of data, the category of user to whom the data relates, and the purposes for which we collected the data.

    Following an account deletion request, WHIDE deletes the user's account and data, unless they must be retained due to legal or regulatory requirements, for purposes of safety, security, and fraud prevention, or because of an issue relating to the user's account such as an outstanding credit or an unresolved claim or dispute. Because we are subject to legal and regulatory requirements relating to drivers and delivery persons, this generally means that we retain their account and data for a minimum of 7 years after a deletion request. For riders and delivery recipients, their data is generally deleted within 90 days of a deletion request, except where retention is necessary for the above reasons.

    Choice and transparency

    WHIDE enables users to access and/or control data that WHIDE collects, including through:

    • privacy settings
    • device permissions
    • in-app ratings pages
    • marketing choices

    WHIDE also enables users to request access to or copies of their data, changes or updates to their accounts, or deletion of their accounts, or that WHIDE restricts its processing of user personal data.

     

    Device permissions

    Most mobile device platforms (iOS, Android, etc.) have defined certain types of device data that apps cannot access without the device owner's permission, and these platforms have different methods for how that permission can be obtained. Please check the available settings on your device or check with your provider.

    In-app ratings pages

    After every trip, drivers and riders are able to rate each other on a different parameter. An average of those ratings is associated with a user's account and is displayed to other users for whom they provide or receive services. For example, rider ratings are available to drivers from whom they request transportation, and driver ratings are available to their riders.

    This 2-way system holds everyone accountable for their behavior. Accountability helps create a respectful, safe environment for drivers and riders.

    Delivery persons may also be rated by delivery recipients, restaurants and merchants. Click here for more information.

    Marketing choices

    Users may opt out of certain marketing communications (including ads) and use of their data for marketing in the following ways:

    Marketing emails and messages: To opt out of receiving marketing emails from WHIDE, or for instructions on how to set your preferences regarding whether to receive marketing SMS or push notifications from WHIDE, click here.
