Privacy Policy
Plain-English explanation of how we collect, use, store, and protect your data.
1. Scope & Roles
This Privacy Policy explains how TaxiDex ("we", "us") collects and uses personal data when you visit our website, use the TaxiDex platform, or contact us. For data processed on behalf of our fleet customers ("Operators"), TaxiDex is the processor and the Operator is the controller. For data we collect directly (e.g., from website visitors), we are the controller.
2. What We Collect
Information you provide
- Account & contact data: name, business email, phone, company, role.
- Billing data: billing address and last 4 digits of payment method (processed by Stripe; we do not store full card numbers).
- Support & sales correspondence: messages, attachments, call recordings (where required by law and disclosed at the start of the call).
Automatic data
- Device, browser, IP address, referrer URL, pages viewed, timestamps.
- Service performance metrics (errors, latency) tied to your account.
Driver & passenger data (on behalf of Operators)
Operators may instruct us to process: driver and passenger names, contact details, photo, vehicle license, location traces, trip history, and ratings. TaxiDex only processes this data on documented Operator instructions per our DPA.

- Send service-critical notifications (downtime, security incidents).
- Improve the product using aggregated, anonymised analytics.
- Send product updates — only if you opted in.

4. Legal Basis (GDPR)
We rely on: Contract (to deliver the platform), Legitimate interests (to keep the platform secure and improve it), Consent (for marketing emails & non-essential cookies), and Legal obligation (e.g., tax records).
5. Sharing & Sub-Processors

6. Retention
Account data is retained for the life of your account and 12 months after termination, except where law requires longer retention (e.g., tax records). Audit logs are retained for 365 days. On request from a controller, we delete or return Operator data within 30 days of termination.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to: access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your personal data; object to processing; withdraw consent; lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise rights, email privacy@taxidex.com. We respond within 30 days.
