Information on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

We may collect and use information about you if you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), and in this section of our Privacy Policy we will explain exactly how and why this data is collected, and how we keep it protected against replication or misuse.

What is GDPR?

GDPR is an EU-wide data protection and privacy law that regulates how companies protect the data of EU residents and improves the control EU residents have over their personal data.

GDPR is relevant to any company operating globally and not just to EU-based companies and EU residents. Our customer data is important no matter where it is located, which is why we have implemented GDPR controls as our gold standard for all our operations around the world.

What is Personal Data?

Any data that relates to an identifiable or identifiable individual. The GDPR covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used on its own or in combination with other pieces of information to identify a person. Personal data goes beyond a person's name or email address. Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical address, sexual orientation, and ethnic origin.

The data protection principles include requirements such as:

* Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, lawful and transparent manner and must only be used in ways that a person would reasonably expect.
* Personal data should only be collected to fulfill a specific purpose and should only be used for that purpose. Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect it.
* Personal data should not be kept for longer than is necessary to fulfill its purpose.
* Persons covered by the GDPR have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data and to have their data updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization.

Why is the GDPR important?

GDPR adds some new requirements regarding how companies must protect the personal data of the people they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing higher fines for non-compliance. Beyond these facts, it is simply the right thing to do. At Us Rides we strongly believe that the privacy of your data is very important and we already have strong security and privacy practices that go beyond the requirements of this new regulation.

Individual rights of the data subject: access, portability and deletion of data

We are committed to helping our clients comply with the GDPR data subject rights requirements. Us Rides processes or stores all personal data with providers that are DPA compliant and have been fully vetted. We store all conversations and personal data for up to 6 years, unless your account is deleted. In which case, we delete all data in accordance with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but will not retain it for more than 60 days.

We realize that if you work with customers in the EU, you must be able to provide them with the ability to access, update, retrieve and delete personal data. We've been set up as self-service from the start and have always given you access to your data and your customer's data. Our customer support team is here to answer any questions you may have about working with the API.
