Policy sections

01

Roles of the Parties

The Controller determines the purposes and means of processing Personal Data. Tomcabs processes Personal Data solely on behalf of the Controller in connection with the Services and acts as a Data Processor under Article 28 GDPR.

02

Subject matter: provision of the Tomcabs taxi fleet management platform. Duration: this DPA applies for the duration of the Services and remains in effect for as long as Tomcabs processes Personal Data on behalf of the Controller.

03

Nature and Purpose of Processing

Processing purposes include fleet and shift management, race and route tracking (start and end GPS coordinates only), road sheet generation, revenue and settlement calculation, expense tracking, compliance document storage, subscription billing management, account administration, and technical support and security. Processing activities include collection, recording, storage, organization, retrieval, consultation, transmission, and deletion. Tomcabs does not use Personal Data for advertising or AI training.

04

Categories of Data Subjects

Personal Data processed may relate to taxi drivers, fleet managers, company administrators, company representatives, and support contacts.

05

Categories of Personal Data

Personal Data may include name, email address, phone number, address, date of birth, profile picture, employment-related information, taxi details (plate number, model, and related details), GPS start and end coordinates of races, shift records, financial and settlement data, uploaded compliance documents, Stripe customer identifiers, and communication records. Special categories of data are not intentionally processed.

06

Controller Obligations

The Controller represents and warrants that it has a lawful GDPR basis for processing Personal Data, has provided appropriate privacy notices, has obtained necessary consents where required, complies with applicable taxi and employment laws regarding GPS tracking, and ensures that Personal Data provided to Tomcabs is accurate and lawful.

07

Processor Obligations

Tomcabs processes Personal Data only on documented Controller instructions, ensures personnel confidentiality obligations, implements appropriate technical and organizational security measures, does not sell or misuse Personal Data, does not engage in automated decision-making with legal effects, and assists the Controller in fulfilling GDPR obligations.

Security Measures

Tomcabs applies security measures including EU-based hosting (Supabase EU region), encrypted data storage, secure authentication mechanisms, role-based access controls, encrypted document storage, secure payment processing via Stripe, and infrastructure protection via Cloudflare. Absolute security cannot be guaranteed, but commercially reasonable safeguards are maintained.

09

Subprocessors

Authorized subprocessors include Supabase (database and storage hosting, European Union), Cloudflare (infrastructure and content delivery, EU and global), and Stripe (payment processing, EU and US). Tomcabs ensures subprocessors are bound by equivalent data protection obligations, and transfers outside the EEA rely on lawful safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. Tomcabs will inform the Controller of intended subprocessor changes.

International Data Transfers

Primary processing occurs within the European Union. Where Personal Data is transferred outside the EEA (for example via Stripe), Tomcabs relies on European Commission adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses.
