Data we delete

When you delete your account, the following is permanently removed from our active systems within 30 days:

  • Identity - name, email address, profile photo, date of birth
  • Contact - phone number, emergency contacts, in-app messages
  • Locations - saved home and work addresses, frequent destinations
  • Preferences - ride preferences, language settings, marketing consents
  • Device data - device identifiers, push notification tokens, session data
  • Support history - chat transcripts and call recordings (after any open dispute is resolved)
  • Saved payment methods - card tokens and UPI references stored in your account

Once removed, this data cannot be recovered.

Data we retain - and why

Some data is retained even after your account is deleted, because Indian law requires it. We're transparent about exactly what stays, why, and how it's kept.

What we retain

  • Trip records - ride ID, pickup and drop locations, distance, duration, fare, and driver assignment
  • Payment records - transaction IDs, amounts, GST breakup, and payment method type (UPI, card type). We never store full card numbers or UPI handles
  • Tax invoices - fare components, GST amounts, and invoice numbers
  • Fraud and safety records - limited data needed to prevent platform misuse and protect other users and drivers

Why we retain it

  • Tax and accounting compliance - Indian tax laws (Income Tax Act, GST Act, Companies Act) require us to maintain financial and trip records for 6 to 8 years
  • Fraud prevention and safety - to prevent misuse of the platform and protect other users and drivers
  • Legal obligations - court orders, regulatory inquiries, and law enforcement requests

How we retain it

Retained data is de-identified. In practice, this means:

  • Your name, email, phone number, and address fields are removed from our database
  • Trip and payment records continue to exist, but are linked to an anonymous reference - not to you personally
  • Retained data is accessed only when required by law, for tax filings, or to respond to verified legal or regulatory requests
  • Retained data is never used for marketing, advertising, profiling, recommendations, or any other commercial purpose

After the statutory retention period ends, the remaining records are permanently deleted from our systems.

Your rights

If your deletion request isn't resolved to your satisfaction, you can:

  • Contact our Grievance Officer (details below)
  • File a complaint with the Data Protection Board of India under the DPDP Act, 2023

For the complete list of rights you have over your personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
