EUSKOOTERS takes the protection of the personal data of its Users very seriously, for which it commits itself to process them in an absolutely confidential way and to use them only for the indicated purposes.

 

5.- Geolocation

The Application has a geolocation system whose main purpose is to know the location of both the e-scooters owned by EUSKOOTERS and that of the User, in an anonymized manner, in order to provide the services offered through it and enable continuous improvement thereof.

Since the Application contains an integrated navigation system that indicates to the Users where to travel in VMP in accordance with current regulations, the foregoing is necessary so that the User himself can see where he is going on the map, how far the points of tourist interest are, which is the most suitable route from the location to the desired destination and how long it would take by e-scooter, etc.

In addition, by having the location permissions active, the User can see how far the e-scooters are from the point where they are, and which is the closest to their location of those found in the different rental points of the service. If the User does not activate the location permissions, he cannot see the closest scooters and, therefore, he is not allowed to use the service since he could not access (nor, therefore, unlock) any of them.

Likewise, the purpose is to allow a more precise traceability of routes than the GPS device of the scooter, both to be able to attend and resolve incidents and to be able to perform anonymous statistics on the busiest routes (origin-destination), in order to implement a service of mobility adapted to each place. This only if necessary.

In this way, the Users can also follow their own path on the Application map to check that the path they are following is the correct one and that they are travelling through the permitted roads, without exceeding the friendly circulation areas and the authorized perimeter.

The activation of the location permits by the User allows him to make correct use of all the functionalities included in the shared rental service for electric scooters offered by EUSKOOTERS.

It is necessary for the User to have the geolocation function of the mobile device activated when accessing the Application in order to use the services. If the User does not have geolocation activated at the time of use it, they will be asked to activate it.

By accepting this Privacy Policy and the Terms and Conditions of use of the services, the Users accepts and consents to the processing of their geolocation data, in an anonymized manner, for the purposes reported.
