Section A: Partner & Driver Application

ETaxiStand Partner Application Privacy Policy

Governing the mobile application ETaxiStand Partner (Package: com.etaxistandpartner.app), operated by eTaxi Stand.

1. Introduction & Scope

eTaxi Stand ("we", "our", or "us") is dedicated to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of independent commercial drivers, chauffeurs, fleet operators, and taxi stand agency partners ("Partner", "Driver", or "You") who use the ETaxiStand Partner mobile application (Google Play package name: com.etaxistandpartner.app) and our related platform services.

This Privacy Policy explains in detail what data we collect, how it is used, processed, shared with passengers for ride execution, and the robust controls you have over your data, including clear account and data deletion mechanisms.

2. Categories of Information We Collect

In order to enable commercial transport dispatching, regulatory compliance under the Motor Vehicles Act, passenger safety, and fare settlements, we collect the following categories of information:

Personal & Account Information

Full name, mobile telephone number (authenticated securely via SMS OTP), optional email address for financial receipts, and profile photograph.

KYC & Driver Verification Data (Sensitive)

Commercial Driving License (number, class, expiry, front/back photo), Government Identity Proof (Aadhaar / PAN card for statutory tax, TDS, and identity compliance), and residential address.

Vehicle Documentation & Specifications

Vehicle Registration Certificate (RC), Commercial Permits, Fitness Certificate, Commercial Vehicle Insurance, vehicle make, model, registration plate number, fuel type (Petrol, Diesel, CNG, Electric), and vehicle photos.

Financial, Wallet & Earnings Data

Driver wallet balance, trip earnings, advance platform commission payments, withdrawal payout records, and bank account / UPI IDs provided for earnings settlement. (Payment card details are handled directly by PCI-DSS compliant gateways like Razorpay and never stored on our servers).

3. Prominent Disclosure: Location Data Usage (Foreground & In-Trip Foreground Service)

ETaxiStand Partner collects precise (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) and approximate (ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) location data from your mobile device:

  • When the App is in Foreground: While you are actively using the app, to display available nearby taxi stands, open trip requests, and nearby bookings.
  • While on Active Trip (Foreground Service): While fulfilling an assigned passenger ride, to enable turn-by-turn navigation, calculate accurate chargeable route distance and tolls, share live vehicle location with the booked rider for passenger safety, and provide emergency SOS assistance.
Privacy Guarantee: Location tracking automatically stops when you log off, go offline, or complete all assigned trips. We NEVER sell, rent, or trade your location data to third-party advertisers or data brokers.

4. Camera, Photos & Device Permissions

The ETaxiStand Partner app requests access to your device camera (android.permission.CAMERA) and photo gallery solely for operational features:

  • Capturing or selecting your driver profile photograph.
  • Photographing Driving License, Vehicle RC, and fitness permits for verification.
  • Uploading vehicle photos to prove vehicle category and cleanliness.
  • Scanning verification QR codes or confirming start/end ride OTPs.

Camera and photo access are strictly user-initiated. You can manage or revoke these permissions at any time through your device operating system settings.

5. How We Use Your Information

Verifying driver identity, licenses, and roadworthiness of vehicles.
Matching you with customer ride requests and taxi stand bookings.
Calculating gross fares, platform fees, driver earnings, and instant wallet credit.
Ensuring trip security, verifying OTPs, and preventing passenger or driver fraud.
Sending real-time booking push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging.
Fulfilling statutory transport laws and taxation (TDS/GST) regulations in India.

6. Information Sharing & Third Parties

We share partner data only under strict operational safeguards:

  • With Booked Passengers: Once you accept a ride, the customer receives your full name, profile photo, contact phone number, vehicle registration number, make/model, and live vehicle location until ride completion.
  • With Taxi Stand Partners: If fulfilling a B2B partner booking, booking status and assigned vehicle details are shared with the booking taxi stand agency.
  • Essential Infrastructure Partners: Google Maps Platform (navigation & distance estimation), Google Firebase (push notifications and phone authentication), certified payment processors (Razorpay / Cashfree), and cloud infrastructure providers (MongoDB, AWS/Vercel).
  • Law Enforcement & Safety: If required by valid legal process, judicial order, or to prevent severe harm, fraud, or accidents.
🚫 Strict Policy: We never sell, rent, monetize, or trade driver or user personal information to third-party data brokers or advertisers.
7. Account & Data Deletion Rights (Google Play Store Compliance)

In accordance with Google Play's User Data policy, every partner using ETaxiStand Partner has the absolute right to request the permanent deletion of their account, driver profile, KYC documentation, and personal data.

Method 1: In-App Deletion Request

Open ETaxiStand Partner App > Profile Tab > Account Settings > Tap "Delete My Account" and confirm with your OTP.
