Privacy policy

This is a placeholder policy. Replace it with one drafted for your jurisdiction and reviewed by a lawyer before you handle real personal data.

What we collect

  • Your name, phone number, email and, if you provide one, your photo
  • Location data while you are booking or on a trip
  • Trip history, fares and payment records
  • Messages sent between riders and drivers during a trip
  • Device information used to detect fraud
  • Drivers only: national ID, permit, insurance and inspection documents

Why we collect it

To match you with a driver, calculate fares, take payment, keep trips safe, resolve disputes, and meet our legal obligations.

Location

We collect location while you are booking and during a trip. Drivers share location while they are online. We do not track you when the app is closed and you are not on a trip.

What we share

  • With your driver: your first name, rating, pickup and destination
  • With your rider: a driver's name, photo, rating, vehicle and plate
  • With a trip-share link: the vehicle, driver name and live location — never your account or payment details
  • With payment providers: only what is needed to take payment
  • With authorities: where we are legally required to

We do not sell your data.

How long we keep it

Trip and payment records are kept for as long as accounting and legal obligations require. GPS breadcrumbs are removed after 30 days. Read notifications are removed after 60 days. Driver documents are kept while the account is active.

Your rights

You may request a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to close your account. Contact support@fleetbyte.ug.

Security

Passwords are hashed. One-time codes are stored hashed. Documents are stored privately and never served publicly. Access by staff is logged.
