Terms And Conditions Terms And Conditions
QRYDE, Corp. Terms of Service

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS. THESE INCLUDE VARIOUS LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS, A CLAUSE THAT GOVERNS THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF DISPUTES, AND OBLIGATIONS TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

NOTE: SECTION 2 OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES WITH QRYDE ARE RESOLVED. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

1. The Agreement


The following Terms of Use ("Terms") govern the use by you, an individual, from within the United States of applications, websites, content, products, and services (the "Services") made available in the United States by QRYDE, Corp. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "QRYDE"). PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES.
By creating your User account, access to and use of QRYDE Services constitutes your agreement to be bound by these Terms, which establish the contractual relationship between you and QRYDE, and you expressly acknowledge that you understand the Terms of this Agreement and accept all of its terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MAY NOT USE OR ACCESS THE QRYDE SERVICES. At its sole discretion, QRYDE may immediately terminate these Terms or any Services with respect to you, or generally cease offering or deny you access to the Services or any portion thereof, at any time for any reason.
QRYDE reserves the right to modify and/or amend the terms and conditions of the Services at any time, effective upon posting the amended terms on this site. If we make changes, we will notify you by, at a minimum, revising the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Agreement. You are responsible for regularly reviewing this Agreement. Continued use of the QRYDE Services after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.
Supplemental terms may apply to certain Services, such as policies for a particular event, activity or promotion, and such supplemental terms will be disclosed to you (e.g., a particular city webpage on QRYDE.com) or in connection with the applicable Service(s). Supplemental terms are in addition to, and shall be deemed a part of, the Terms for the purposes of the applicable Service(s). Supplemental terms shall prevail over these Terms in the event of a conflict with respect to the applicable Services.

2. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration


We hope we never have a dispute, but if we do, you and we agree to try for 30 days to work it out informally. If we can’t, you and QRYDE agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and QRYDE arising in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement or to your relationship with QRYDE as a user of the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of the Agreements) will be determined by mandatory binding individual arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court, except that the arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. Class action lawsuits, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney-general actions, and anything else where someone acts in a representative capacity, aren't allowed. Nor is combining individual proceedings without the consent of all parties. This arbitration provision will survive termination of the Agreements.
Notwithstanding the clause above, you and QRYDE both agree that nothing herein will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (1) bring an individual small claim action in Massachusetts; (2) seek injunctive relief in a court of law, or (3) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
Either you or QRYDE may start binding arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Lowell or Boston, Massachusetts, provided that if the claim is for $5,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; or (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation will be limited to those fees set forth in the AAA’s Consumer Rules with the remainder paid by QRYDE. Any arbitration will be conducted in the English language and the law to be applied in any arbitration shall be the law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States, without regard to choose or conflicts of law principles. All documents and information disclosed in the course of the arbitration shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law. Except as required to enforce the arbitrator’s decision and award, neither you nor QRYDE shall make any public announcement or public comment or originate any publicity concerning the arbitration, including, but not limited to, the fact that the parties are in dispute, the existence of the arbitration, or any decision or award of the arbitrator.

All disputes MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR. You and we must file for arbitration any claim or dispute (except intellectual property disputes) within one year from when it first could be filed. Otherwise, it's permanently barred. If you have a dispute, tell us now. We'll do the same. If applicable law prohibits a one-year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest time period permitted by applicable law.

If the class action waiver in this Arbitration Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or parts of a dispute, this Arbitration Agreement won't apply to those parts. Instead, those parts will proceed in court with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration. If any other provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be severed but the rest of this Arbitration Agreement will still apply.

You agree to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date information in your Account.

Unless otherwise permitted by QRYDE in writing, you may only possess one Account.

(iv)User Provided Content.

QRYDE may, in QRYDE's sole discretion, permit you from time to time to submit, upload, publish or otherwise make available to QRYDE through the Services textual, audio, and/or visual content and information, including commentary and feedback related to the Services, initiation of support requests, and submission of entries for competitions and promotions ("User Content"). Any User Content provided by you remains your property. However, by providing User Content to QRYDE, you grant QRYDE a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferrable, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use, copy, modify, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and otherwise exploit in any manner such User Content in all formats and distribution channels now known or hereafter devised (including in connection with the Services and QRYDE's business and on third-party sites and services), without further notice to or consent from you, and without the requirement of payment to you or any other person or entity.

You represent and warrant that: (i) you either are the sole and exclusive owner of all User Content or you have all rights, licenses, consents and releases necessary to grant QRYDE the license to the User Content as set forth above; and (ii) neither the User Content nor your submission, uploading, publishing or otherwise making available of such User Content nor QRYDE's use of the User Content as permitted herein will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party's intellectual property or proprietary rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.

You agree to not provide User Content that is defamatory, libelous, hateful, violent, obscene, pornographic, unlawful, or otherwise offensive, as determined by QRYDE in its sole discretion, whether or not such material may be protected by law. QRYDE may, but shall not be obligated to, review, monitor, or remove User Content, at QRYDE's sole discretion and at any time and for any reason, without notice to you.

(v) Network Access and Devices

You are responsible for obtaining the data network access necessary to use the Services. Your mobile network's data and messaging rates and fees may apply if you access or use the Services from a wireless-enabled device. You are responsible for acquiring and updating compatible hardware or devices necessary to access and use the Services and Applications and any updates thereto. QRYDE does not guarantee that the Services, or any portion thereof, will function on any particular hardware or devices. In addition, the Services may be subject to malfunctions and delays inherent in the use of the Internet and electronic communications.

(vi)Payment

You understand that use of the Services may result in charges to you for the services or goods you receive from a Third Party Provider ("Ride Fee"). After you have scheduled transportation through your use of the Service, QRYDE will facilitate your payment of the applicable Ride Fee on behalf of the Third Party Provider, as such Third Party Provider's limited payment collection agent. Payment of the Ride Fee in such manner shall be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Third Party Provider. Ride Fee will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Ride Fees paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by QRYDE.

Ride Fee may vary based on the type of service you request (e.g., QRYDE van, wheel chair vehicles, limo) as described on QRYDE’s website page. You are responsible for reviewing the applicable QRYDE Ride Fees and shall be responsible for all Ride Fees incurred under your User Account regardless of your awareness of such Ride Fee or the amounts thereof. QRYDE will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Ride Fees that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof.

Ride Fees consist of a base price for the type of service requested and incremental charges based on the duration and distance of your ride, flat rates or hourly rates for the service requested. For particularly short rides, minimum Ride Fees may apply.

Cancellation Fee Policy. A booked ride with a Third Party Provider may be cancelled 24 hours prior to scheduled time for a full refund to your QRYDE Account. Same day ride cancellations will not be refunded. In the event that you make repeated or frequent cancellations, or fail to show up for your ride in a timely manner, QRYDE may charge you cancellation fees, and/or terminate your User Account and license to use the Services. We may also assess a Cancellation Fee and/or terminate your User Account, if we determine that you have intentionally cancelled rides to disrupt the QRYDE Services or other provision of Services.

Credit Card Authorization. All Charges are due immediately and payment will be facilitated by QRYDE using the preferred payment method at the time of purchase, after which QRYDE will send you a receipt by email. Should the amount of authorization Ride Fee exceed the total funds on deposit in your account, you may be subject to overdraft of NSF charges by the bank issuing your debit or check card.

Gratuity. This payment structure is intended to fully compensate the Third Party Provider for the services or goods provided. QRYDE does not designate any portion of your payment as a tip or gratuity to the Third Party Provider. Any representation by QRYDE (on QRYDE's website, in the Application, or in QRYDE's marketing materials) to the effect that tipping is "voluntary," "not required," and/or "included" in the payments you make for services or goods provided is not intended to suggest that QRYDE provides any additional amounts, beyond those described above, to the Third Party Provider. You understand and agree that, while you are free to provide additional payment as a gratuity to any Third Party Provider who provides you with services or goods obtained through the Service, you are under no obligation to do so. Gratuities are voluntary. After you have received services or goods obtained through the Service, you will have the opportunity to rate your experience and leave additional feedback about your Third Party Provider.

As between you and QRYDE, QRYDE reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Ride Fees for any or all services or goods obtained through the use of the Services at any time in QRYDE's sole discretion. QRYDE may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services or goods obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you.

(vii) Repair or Cleaning Fees.

You shall be responsible for the cost of repair for damage to, or necessary cleaning of, Third Party Provider vehicles and property resulting from use of the Services under your Account in excess of normal "wear and tear" damages and necessary cleaning ("Repair or Cleaning"). In the event that a Third Party Provider reports the need for Repair or Cleaning, and such Repair or Cleaning request is verified by QRYDE in QRYDE's reasonable discretion, QRYDE reserves the right to facilitate payment for the reasonable cost of such Repair or Cleaning on behalf of the Third Party Provider using your payment method designated in your Account. Such amounts will be transferred by QRYDE to the applicable Third Party Provider and are non-refundable.

Terms And Conditions Privacy and Policy

QRYDE PRIVACY STATEMENT
When you use QRYDE services, you trust us with your information. This Privacy Policy is meant to help you understand what data we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it. This is important; we hope you will take time to read it carefully. And remember, you can find controls to manage your information and protect your privacy and security at My Account.
QRYDE collects data to operate effectively and to provide you with the best experience with the use of our products and services. We collect the information about you when you use our mobile applications, websites, and other online products and services (collectively, the “Services”) and through other interactions and communications you have with us. This Privacy Statement applies to information collected and used by QRYDE.

I. Scope and Application

This Privacy Statement (“Statement") applies to persons who use the QRYDE apps or Services to request transportation, delivery, or other on-demand services (“Users”). We get some of it by recording how you interact with our products by, for example, using technologies like cookies, and receiving error reports or usage data from software running on your device. We also obtain data from third parties. This Statement does not apply to information we collect from or about drivers, couriers, partner transportation companies, or any other persons who use the QRYDE platform under license (collectively “Drivers”). If you interact with the Services as both a User and a Driver, the respective privacy statements apply to your different interactions.

II. Collection of Information

1. We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you create or modify your QYRDE account, request on-demand services, contact customer support, or otherwise communicate with us. This information may include: name, email, phone number, postal address, profile picture, payment method, items requested (for delivery services), delivery notes, and other information you choose to provide.

2. When you use our Services, app or website, we collect information about you in the following categories:

  • Location Information: When you use the Services for transportation or delivery, we collect precise location data about the trip from the QRYDE app used by the Driver. If you permit the QRYDE app to access location services through the permission system used by your mobile operating system (“platform”), we may also collect the precise location of your device when the app is running in the foreground or background. We may also derive your approximate location from your IP address.
  • Contacts Information: If you permit the QRYDE app to access the address book on your device through the permission system used by your mobile platform, we may access and store names and contact information from your address book to facilitate social interactions through our Services and for other purposes described in this Statement or at the time of consent or collection.
  • Transaction Information: We collect transaction details related to your use of our Services, including the type of service requested, date and time the service was provided, amount charged, distance traveled, and other related transaction details. Additionally, if someone uses your promo code, we may associate your name with that person.
  • Usage and Preference Information: We collect information about how you and site visitors interact with our Services, preferences expressed, and settings chosen. In some cases we do this through the use of cookies, pixel tags, and similar technologies that create and maintain unique identifiers.
  • Service Information: We may collect information about your mobile device, including, for example, the hardware model, operating system and version, software and file names and versions, preferred language, unique device identifier, advertising identifiers, serial number, device motion information, and mobile network information.
  • Call and SMS Data: Our Services facilitate communications between Users and Drivers. In connection with facilitating this service, we receive call data, including the date and time of the call or SMS message, the parties’ phone numbers, and the content of the SMS message.
  • Log Information: When you interact with the Services, we collect server logs, which may include information like device IP address, access dates and times, app features or pages viewed, app crashes and other system activity, type of browser, and the third-party site or service you were using before interacting with our Services.

3. We may also receive information from other sources and combine that with information we collect through our Services. For example:

  • If you choose to link, create, or log in to your QRYDE account with a payment provider, or social media service, or if you engage with a separate app or website that uses our API (or whose API we use), we may receive information about you or your connections from that site or app.
  • If your employer uses one of our solutions, we may receive information about you from your employer.
  • When you request on demand services, our Drivers may provide us with a User rating after providing services to you.
  • If you also interact with our Services in another capacity, for instance as a Driver or user of other apps we provide, we may combine or associate that information with information we have collected from you in your capacity as a User or rider.

III. Use of Information

We may use the information we collect about you to:
We share your personal data with your consent or as necessary to complete any transaction or provide any product you have requested or authorized. We also share data with QRYDE -controlled affiliates and subsidiaries; with vendors working on our behalf; when required by law or to respond to legal process; to protect our customers; to protect lives; to maintain the security of our products; and to protect the rights or property of QRYDE.

  • With vendors, consultants, marketing partners, and other service providers who need access to such information to carry out work on our behalf;

  • If we otherwise notify you and you consent to the sharing; and

V. Social Sharing Features

The Services may integrate with social sharing features and other related tools which let you share actions you take on our Services with other apps, sites, or media, and vice versa. Your use of such features enables the sharing of information with your friends or the public, depending on the settings you establish with the social sharing service. Please refer to the privacy policies of those social sharing services for more information about how they handle the data you provide to or share through them.

VI. Analytics and Advertising Services Provided by Others

QRYDE may allow others to provide audience measurement and analytics services for us, to serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet, and to track and report on the performance of those advertisements. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, SDKs, and other technologies to identify your device when you visit our site and use our Services, as well as when you visit other online sites and services. For more information about these technologies and service providers.

VII. Account Information

You may correct your account information at any time by logging into your online or in-app account. If you wish to cancel your account, please email us at support@qryde.com. Please note that in some cases we may retain certain information about you as required by law, or for legitimate business purposes to the extent permitted by law. For instance, if you have a standing credit or debt on your account, or if we believe you have committed fraud or violated our Terms, we may seek to resolve the issue before deleting your information.
Access Rights. We will comply with individual’s requests regarding access, correction, and/or deletion of the personal data it stores in accordance with applicable law.
Location Information. We request permission for our app’s collection of precise location from your device per the permission system used by your mobile operating system. If you initially permit the collection of this information, you can later disable it by changing the location settings on your mobile device. However, this will limit your ability to use certain features of our Services. Additionally, disabling our app’s collection of precise location from your device will not limit our ability to collect your trip location information from a Driver's device nor our ability to derive approximate location from your IP address.
Contact Information: We may also seek permission for our app’s collection and syncing of contact information from your device per the permission system used by your mobile operating system.
Promotional Communications: You may opt out of receiving promotional messages from us by following the instructions in those messages. If you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, about Services you have requested, or our ongoing business relations.
Your Privacy Rights: Certain states law permits residents of the state to request certain details about how their information is shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. QRYDE complies with all state laws and regulations and will not share your personally identifiable information with third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes unless you provide us with consent to do so.
Cookies & Similar Technologies: QRYDE uses cookies (small text files placed on your device) and similar technologies to provide our websites and online services and help collect data. Cookies allow us, among other things, to store your preferences and settings; enable you to sign-in; provide interest-based advertising; combat fraud; and analyze how our websites and online services are performing. QRYDE apps use other identifiers, such as the advertising ID in Windows, for similar purposes.
We also use web beacons to help deliver cookies and gather usage and performance data. Our websites may include web beacons and cookies from third-party service providers.
You have a variety of tools to control cookies, web beacons and similar technologies, including browser controls to block and delete cookies and controls from some third-party analytics service providers to opt out of data collection through web beacons. Your browser and other choices may impact your experiences with our products.
Changes to the Statement: We may change this Statement from time to time. If we make significant changes in the way we treat your personal information, or to the Statement, we will provide you notice through the Services or by some other means, such as email. Your continued use of the Services after such notice constitutes your consent to the changes. We encourage you to periodically review the Statement for the latest information on our privacy practices.
Contact Us: If you have any questions about this Privacy Statement, please contact us at info@qryde.com.

VIII. Information Security

We work hard to protect QRYDE and our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of information we hold. In particular: (i) We encrypt many of our services using SSL; (ii)  We offer you two step verification when you access your QRYDE Account; (iii) We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems; and (IV)  We restrict access to personal information to QRYDE employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.
