What We Retain and Why

We are required to keep some records:
  • Billing records and invoices: Retained for 7 years to comply with New Zealand Inland Revenue record-keeping requirements.
  • Payment records: The amount, date, outcome and non-identifying card details (brand, type, issuing country, wallet) of past payments are kept with billing records for 7 years. The references linking them to your account and card are removed within 30 days.
  • Booking and trip records: Ride history linked to your account is removed. Some booking and trip records are retained in anonymised form, no longer linked to your name or contact details, where required for financial, tax, legal, safety or dispute records.
  • Anonymised aggregate ride statistics: Retained indefinitely for service improvement. This data is stripped of any identifiers linking back to you.
