For the purpose of Boat It, this includes but is not limited to your name, email, address, role (Voyager, Business, Captain), phone number, date of birth, business details (for businesses), and boating license and insurance details (for captains). We do not collect Personal Information unless you voluntarily provide it to us during your registration and usage of the App.

We use the collected information primarily for providing, maintaining, evaluating, and improving our Boat It App, fulfilling boat ride requests, facilitating communication between boat owners and passengers, processing payments, and providing customer support.

Certain information like your name and location may be visible to other users for the purpose of coordinating rides. We will not sell, trade, rent, or disclose the information we collect from you for unrelated commercial purposes. We share your Personal Information only as described below:

  • When required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process.
  • When we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.

5. Secure Data Handling

We are committed to protecting the security of your personal and sensitive information. We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures like API Access Control, HTTPS, OAuth 2, and ssl pinning to help protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your Personal Information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services, you may delete your account.
