Helping Hands
Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 15, 2026
Helping Hands ("we", "our", or "the service") is a ride-hailing app that connects passengers with drivers. This policy explains what information we collect when you use the app and website, how we use and share it, and the choices you have.
We collect only the information needed to provide your ride and process your payment:
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
Drivers share their GPS location with the app while on duty so passengers can see their driver approaching and so dispatch can manage the fleet. Passenger location is used during an active trip for pickup, routing, and arrival detection. You can deny location permission, but the app needs your pickup address to book a ride.
We keep your trip and payment records for as long as needed to provide the service and to meet bookkeeping, tax, and legal obligations. You can ask us to delete your account and personal information at any time (see "Your Rights" below), and we will remove it unless we are required to keep specific records by law.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time. If you are a California resident, you also have the right to know what personal information is collected and to opt out of any "sale" of personal information — we do not sell your personal information. Contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable time.
The service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Riders under 18 should be booked and accompanied by a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
We use secure connections, access controls, and role-based permissions so only the people who need your data to complete your ride can see it. Payment data is handled by Stripe under industry-standard PCI compliance. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page, and the "Last updated" date below will change. Continued use of the service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
