When you create an account with REST, we collect the information you provide us, such as your name, email address, phone number, birth date, and payment information. You may choose to share additional info with us for your Rider profile, like your photo or saved addresses (e.g., home or work). Just after you rate and provide feedback about Riders or Drivers, we collect all the information you provide in your feedback. When you contact us or we contact you, we collect any information that you provide, including the contents of the messages or attachments you send us. Great rides start with an easy and accurate pickup. The REST Platform collects location information (GPS).

In addition, we collect information about your use of the REST Platform, including ride information like the date, time, destination, distance, route, payment, and whether you used a promotional or referral code.
