Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal information necessary to provide our premium rental services. This includes your name, email, phone number, and driver's license details for identity verification. We also collect vehicle telematics (such as GPS location and vehicle status) during your rental period to ensure safety and security.

2. Payment Processing & Security

All payments are processed securely through Stripe. Mongoori Rides does not store your full credit card information on our servers. Stripe's use of your personal information is governed by their Privacy Policy which can be viewed at stripe.com. We rely on their PCI-compliant infrastructure to keep your financial data safe.

3. How We Use Your Data

Your data allows us to manage your bookings, verify your eligibility to drive, and provide customer support. We use vehicle location data strictly for emergency assistance, theft recovery, and boundary monitoring (Geofencing).

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only with trusted partners required to fulfill our service, such as insurance providers and Stripe for payment processing. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All of the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

5. SMS & Text Messaging Consent

Mongoori Rides sends SMS/text messages only for transactional purposes related to your account and rentals — for example booking confirmations, pickup and return reminders, payment and EV-charging receipts, and account or safety notices. Text messaging is optional: you consent by checking the SMS box on the driver application, which is not pre-checked and is not required to apply, be approved, or rent a vehicle. We still collect your phone number for the rental itself and verify it with a one-time passcode, but we do not text you about your rental unless you have opted in. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, and reply HELP for help; opting out does not affect your account or your rental. Mongoori Rides does NOT share your mobile phone number or your SMS opt-in consent with any third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes; mobile opt-in information is used solely to deliver our own service messages. See our Terms of Service for additional details.
