  • Cookies and tracking data (if cookies or similar technologies are used).

4. How we collect personal information
We collect information:

  • Directly from you — when you make a booking, fill in an enquiry/contact form, communicate with us, or interact with the Site.
  • Automatically — via cookies, analytics tools or other technologies when you browse the Site.
  • From third parties — only if you have provided consent or where permitted (for instance, payment processors, service providers, or if required by law).

5. Why we collect and how we use personal information
We use the information we collect for purposes such as:

  • Providing and managing our chauffeur and transport services (booking, scheduling, confirmations, customer support).
  • Processing payments and billing.
  • Communicating with you regarding bookings, enquiries, changes, offers, or updates.
  • Improving and managing our website and services (analytics, performance, user experience, marketing).

6. Disclosure of personal information / Third-party sharing
We will not sell or lease your personal information. We may disclose information:

  • When required or permitted by law (e.g. regulatory authorities, law enforcement).
  • In connection with a sale, merger or transfer of part or all of our business — in which case we will require the receiving party to respect the privacy commitments in this policy.
  • If you consent to such disclosure.

If we disclose your information overseas (e.g. to third-party service providers located abroad), we will notify you where practicable and take reasonable steps to ensure your information remains protected.

7. Data retention and deletion
We will retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined above (e.g. to complete a booking, respond to enquiries, or comply with statutory obligations). When information is no longer required, we will securely destroy or de-identify it.

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. These steps may include secure data storage, access controls, encryption, and where relevant, secure payment processing.

  • Anonymity / Pseudonymity: where possible, you may deal with us anonymously or by using a pseudonym (subject to practical limitations, e.g. if you wish to make a booking, we may need your real contact details).
  • Data breach response: in the event of a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm, we will follow our internal breach response procedures and notify affected individuals and OAIC as required under the law.
