**Privacy Policy**
**The Scope of This Policy**
This policy applies to all EesyLoad users, including Riders and Drivers (including Driver applicants), and to all EesyLoad platforms and services, including our apps, websites, features, and other services (collectively, the “EesyLoad Platform”). Please remember that your use of the EesyLoad Platform is also subject to our Terms of Service.
**The Information We Collect**
When you use the EesyLoad Platform, we collect the information you provide, usage information, and information about your device. We also collect information about you from other sources like third-party services and optional programs in which you participate, which we may combine with other information we have about you. Here are the types of information we collect about you:
**A. Information You Provide to Us**
**Account Registration.** When you create an account with EesyLoad, we collect the information you provide us, such as your name, email address, phone number, birth date, and payment information. You may choose to share additional info with us for your Rider profile, like your photo or saved addresses (e.g., home or work), and set up other preferences (such as your preferred pronouns).
**Driver Information.** If you apply to be a Driver, we will collect the information you provide in your application, including your name, email address, phone number, birth date, profile photo, physical address, government identification number (such as social security number), driver’s license information, vehicle information, and car insurance information. We collect the payment information you provide us, including your bank routing numbers, and tax information. Depending on where you want to drive, we may also ask for additional business license or permit information or other information to manage driving and programs relevant to that location. We may need additional information from you at some point after you become a Driver, including information to confirm your identity (like a photo).
**SOS Contact Information.** We will collect contact list permissions to list the contacts while adding the SOS contacts for the user and driver app.
**Ratings and Feedback.** When you rate and provide feedback about Riders or Drivers, we collect all of the information you provide in your feedback.
**Communications.** When you contact us or we contact you, we collect any information that you provide, including the contents of the messages or attachments you send us.
**B. Information We Collect When You Use the EesyLoad Platform**
**Location Information.** Great rides start with an easy and accurate pickup. The EesyLoad Platform collects location information (including GPS and WiFi data) differently depending on your EesyLoad app settings and device permissions as well as whether you are using the platform as a Rider or Driver:
- **Riders:** We collect your device’s precise location when you open and use the EesyLoad app, including while the app is running in the background from the time you request a ride until it ends. EesyLoad also tracks the precise location of scooters and e-bikes at all times.
- **Drivers:** We collect your device’s precise location when you open and use the app, including while the app is running in the background when it is in driver mode. We also collect precise location for a limited time after you exit driver mode in order to detect ride incidents and continue collecting it until a reported or detected incident is no longer active.
**Usage Information.** We collect information about your use of the EesyLoad Platform, including ride information like the date, time, destination, distance, route, payment, and whether you used a promotional or referral code. We also collect information about your interactions with the EesyLoad Platform, like our apps and websites, including the pages and content you view and the dates and times of your use.
**Device Information.** We collect information about the devices you use to access the EesyLoad Platform, including device model, IP address, type of browser, version of operating system, identity of carrier and manufacturer, radio type (such as 4G), preferences and settings (such as preferred language), application installations, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, and push notification tokens. If you are a Driver, we also collect mobile sensor data from your device (such as speed, direction, height, acceleration, deceleration, and other technical data).
**Communications Between Riders and Drivers.** We work with a third party to facilitate phone calls and text messages between Riders and Drivers without sharing either party’s actual phone number with the other. But while we use a third party to provide the communication service, we collect information about these communications, including the participants’ phone numbers, the date and time, and the contents of SMS messages. For security purposes, we may also monitor or record the contents of phone calls made through the EesyLoad Platform, but we will always let you know we are about to do so before the call begins.
**Address Book Contacts.** You may set your device permissions to grant EesyLoad access to your contact lists and direct EesyLoad to access your contact list, for example, to help you refer friends to EesyLoad. If you do this, we will access and store the names and contact information of the people in your address book.
**Cookies, Analytics, and Third-Party Technologies.** We collect information through the use of “cookies”, tracking pixels, data analytics tools like Google Analytics, SDKs, and other third-party technologies to understand how you navigate through the EesyLoad Platform and interact with EesyLoad advertisements, to make your EesyLoad experience safer, to learn what content is popular, to improve your site experience, to serve you better ads on other sites, and to save your preferences. Cookies are small text files that web servers place on your device; they are designed to store basic information and to help websites and apps recognize your browser. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be accessed every time you use the EesyLoad Platform. You should consult your web browser(s) to modify your cookie settings. Please note that if you delete or choose not to accept cookies from us, you may miss out on certain features of the EesyLoad Platform.
**C. Information We Collect from Third Parties**
**Third-Party Services.** Third-party services provide us with information needed for core aspects of the EesyLoad Platform, as well as for additional services, programs, loyalty benefits, and promotions that can enhance your EesyLoad experience. These third-party services include background check providers, insurance partners, financial service providers, marketing providers, and other businesses. We obtain the following information about you from these third-party services:

**Enterprise Programs.** If you use EesyLoad through your employer or another organization that participates in one of our EesyLoad Business enterprise programs, we will collect information about you from those parties, such as your name and contact information.
**Concierge Service.** Sometimes another business or entity may order you an EesyLoad ride. If an organization has ordered a ride for you using our Concierge service, they will provide us your contact information and the pickup and drop-off location of your ride.
