   DATA COLLECTION AND USES:
   
   

I). THE DATA WE COLLECT:

TalcTech Move collects data; a). provided by users to TalcTech Move, b). created during use of our services, c). from other sources.

TalcTech Move collects the following data from these sources:

1. Data provided by users. This includes:

• 
  Account information: We collect data when users create or update their TalcTech Move accounts, or place orders via guest checkout features. This includes first and last name, email, phone number, login name and password, address, profile picture, payment or banking information (including related payment verification information) and user settings (including accessibility settings).
  
  
  
  

• Identity verification documents and photos: This includes government issued identification such as driver’s license or passports (which may contain identification photos and numbers, date of birth, and gender), and user-submitted photos such as selfies and profile pictures.
  

• Demographic data: We collect demographic data such as birth date/age, gender or occupation when necessary to enable certain features, or provide access to age-restricted products or services.
  

• User content: We collect data (including chat logs and call recordings) when users contact TalcTech Move customer support, provide ratings or feedback for users, restaurants or merchants, use features that enable users to upload content or submit recordings (including in-app audio recordings or dashboard cameras recordings), or otherwise contact TalcTech Move.
  
  

2. Data created during use of our services. This includes:

• 
  Location data (Riders). We collect precise and/or approximate location information from riders’ mobile devices if they enable us to do so via their device settings.
  
  TalcTech Move collects such data from the time a ride or order is requested until it is finished, and any time the app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen). See “Choice and transparency” below for information on how riders can enable precise location data collection.
  
  Riders may use the TalcTech Move apps without enabling collection of location data from their mobile devices. However, this may affect certain features in the TalcTech Move apps. For example, a rider who has not enabled precise location data will have to manually enter their pickup address.
  
  In addition, precise location data collected from a Driver’s device during a trip is linked to the Rider’s account, even if the rider has not enabled precise location data to be collected from their device. This data is used for purposes such as customer support, fraud detection, insurance, litigation and receipt generation.
  

• Transaction information: We collect transaction information related to the use of our services, including the type of services requested or provided; trip details (such as date and time, requested pick-up and drop off addresses or distance traveled); and payment transaction information (such amount charged, and payment method). We also associate a user’s name with that of anyone who uses their promotion code.
  

• Usage data: We collect data about how users interact with our services. This includes access dates and times, app features or pages viewed, browser type, and app crashes.
  

• Device data: We collect data about the devices used to access our services, including the hardware models, device IP address or other unique device identifiers, operating systems and versions, software, preferred languages, advertising identifiers, device motion data, and mobile network data.
  

• Communications data: We collect data regarding communications between users that are enabled through TalcTech Move's apps. This includes communication type (phone, text or in-app message), date/time, and content (including recordings of phone calls solely when users are notified of the recording in advance).
  
  

3). Data from other sources. These include:

• 
  TalcTech Move account owners who request services for or on behalf of other users (such as friends or family members), or who enable other users to request.
  

• Users or others providing information in connection with claims or disputes.
  

• TalcTech Industries Limited's business partners in connection with debit or credit cards issued by a financial institution in partnership with TalcTech Industries Limited to the extent disclosed in the terms and conditions for the card.
  

• Service providers who help us verify users’ identity, background information, and eligibility to work, detect fraud, and screen users in connection with sanctions, anti-money laundering, or know-your-customer requirements.
  
  
  

• Publicly available sources.
  

• Law enforcement officials, public health officials, and other government authorities.

  • matching available Drivers to users requesting services, including based on personal data such as location and proximity to other users, and user settings / preferences (such as preferred destinations), and non-personal data such as vehicle type requested.
    

  • enabling accessibility features.

• 
  using account, device, location, usage, transaction, wireless carrier, and other data, including communications between users and metadata, to prevent, detect, and combat fraud, including by guest users.
  

• using reported incidents, user ratings and other feedback to encourage safe use of TalcTech Move’s platform and compliance with our terms and as grounds for suspending or deactivating users with low ratings.
  

• using Driver's data (such as past trip information and reported incident rates) and Rider data (such as account information, cancellation and reported incident rates, current pick-up and drop-off location, past trip information, and ratings information) to predict and help avoid pairings of users that may result in increased risk of conflict. We also avoid pairings where one user has previously given the other a low (e.g., 1 star) rating.
  
  

• 
  using Rider's data to help law enforcement, in the event that a crime was carried out during one of our trips by either a Rider.
