Privacy Policy

This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how Expedite, LLC and our affiliates and subsidiaries (“Expedite” or “we” or “us” or “our”) treats information collected or provided in connection with transactions, activities, and data gathered when a User (“you” or “User”) visits or uses the Expedite Platform.

Effective Date: March 15, 2018

This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how Expedite, LLC and our affiliates and subsidiaries (“Expedite” or “we” or “us” or “our”) treats information collected or provided in connection with transactions, activities, and data gathered when a User (“you” or “User”) visits or uses the Expedite Platform. This Policy is incorporated by reference into the Terms of Use. Any capitalized terms used and not defined in this Policy shall have the meaning given to them in the Terms of Use.

Please note that the use of the Expedite Platform constitutes your acceptance of this Policy. If you do not agree with how we have determined to handle your information, please do not visit or use the Expedite Platform.

1. Effective Date and Changes

This Policy applies to all information collected by or provided to us on or after the Effective Date. Expedite will periodically review and revise this Policy as Expedite modifies the Platform and will update the Effective Date above upon any such changes. We will treat your continued use of the Expedite Platform following such changes as your acceptance of them. We encourage you to periodically review this Policy.

If our practices change regarding previously collected Personal Information in a way that would be materially less restrictive than those policies in effect at the time we collected the information, we will make reasonable efforts to provide notice and to obtain consent to any such uses as may be required by law, but we will not be liable for any failure to do so.

2. Personal Information Collected on the Expedite Platform

Because we respect your rights to your own privacy, we are committed to our policies established for the collection and/or use of your “Personal Information,” which is hereby defined as “full name, username, postal address, phone number, email address, age, and any information that could be used to identify, contact, or locate you directly without using the Expedite Platform.”

For the purposes of this Policy, Personal Information does not include your photograph or other image. Expedite has determined to establish separate policies specifically governing the use of photographs for and on the Expedite Platform in Section 5 herein and further in “Photographs” provision of our Terms of Use.

By using the Expedite Platform, you are authorizing us to collect, parse, and retain data related to the provision of the Expedite Platform. However, we also provide Users with options and choices regarding how we use and disclose some or all of your Personal Information, as set forth specifically below, including how to access, correct, and/or remove it. You may avoid further said data collection by uninstalling the App from your mobile device and not otherwise using the Expedite Platform.

When you visit or use the Expedite Platform, we collect information about you in the following general categories.

    • Location Information: We collect precise location data through the App when it is used by Providers if the Providers’ devices permit such information collection. We may collect this information when Providers use certain functionality, such as navigating to a location to provide the Services, and we may also collect the precise location of a Provider’s device when the App is running in the foreground or background. We may derive a Provider’s approximate location from the Provider’s IP address. The Expedite Platform utilizes geolocation features to match Customers to Providers, to update Customers on the status of Providers en route to perform Services, to confirm that a Provider performed Services, and to improve the services on the Expedite Platform.
    • We also may use and disclose geolocation we collect through the Expedite Platform for other business purposes, including for legal purposes (such as to enforce our agreements) and in the event of a proposed or actual merger, sale, or other business asset transfers. The geo-location information obtained about a User will be retained in an identifiable manner, along with geo-location data about job sites where Providers performed Services on initial and/or follow-up jobs.
    • Transaction Information: We collect transaction details related to your use of the Expedite Platform, such as type of service requested, date and time of service, amount charged, distance traveled, intra-User communications, ratings and reviews, and other related transaction details.
    • Provider Registration and Payment: To register as a Provider, you may need to provide other Personal Information, including your bank account. To make sure Providers get paid, we keep information about Provider’s bank routing numbers, tax information, and any other payment information provided by Providers. To keep your data secure, we do not store your full bank account information number on our servers.
    • Expedite Payment Method. When you add a credit card or payment method to your Expedite account, a third party that handles payments for us will receive your card information. To keep your financial data secure, we do not store full credit card information on our servers.
    • Customer Support: We may collect Personal Information through your communications with our customer-support team
    • Usage and Preference Information: We collect information that is generated automatically about how you and visitors interact with the Expedite Platform, preferences expressed, and settings chosen. When we associate such information with specific personal information, we will treat the combination as Personal Information, as set forth herein.
    • Communications Between Users: As an enhanced privacy feature, we use a third-party service called Twilio to mask the telephone numbers used during calls or texts (SMS) between Users (See additional provisions regarding Twilio herein below). We do not reveal telephone numbers submitted on file, although we store any call data, including associated date, time, and content.
    • Device Information: We may collect information about your mobile device, including the following examples: the hardware model, operating system/version, software names/versions, file names/versions, preferred language, unique device identifier, advertising identifiers, serial number, device motion information, and mobile network information.
    • Log Information: When you interact with the Expedite Platform, we collect server logs, which may include device IP addresses, access dates and times, app features or pages viewed, app crashes and other system activity, browser type, and the third-party site/service accessed prior to interacting with the Expedite Platform.
    • Third-Party Site Account Access: If you log-in to the Expedite Platform, we may collect your authentication token, registration information, and account identification number and use that information to provide you with access to your account on the Expedite Platform.

7. Information Collected by Cookies and Other Technologies

Like most online services and mobile applications, we and our third-party service providers may use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your activity from the computer or devices you use to access the Expedite Platform. A cookie is a file saved on a user’s hard drive that stores certain information about user activity. Users must agree to let cookies be saved for them, and most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. Although you can modify your browser/device settings to reject cookies if desired, this could potentially affect the availability and functionality of our services.

Any third party with whom we are allowed to share your Personal Information is authorized to use your Personal Information in accordance with our contractual arrangements with such third parties and in accordance with their own privacy policies, over which we have no control. You agree that we are not responsible or liable for any of their actions or omissions. Those who contact you will need to be instructed directly by you regarding your preferences for the use of your Personal Information by them.

8. How to Edit Your Personal Information

Expedite provides you with the ability to access and edit your Personal Information: Sign into the app, access the Settings menu, and then view and update/correct your account information. So that we can protect the integrity of sensitive data, there are certain pieces of information that you cannot alter yourself. Please contact us at support@Expedite.legal to find out how to change information you cannot access through your account.

9. Information Retention

To preserve the integrity of our databases, standard procedure calls for us to retain information submitted by members for an indefinite length of time. You agree that we may store the information we collect for this indefinite length of time.

10. Our Security Precautions

Your Expedite profile is password-protected so that only you and authorized Expedite employees have access to your account information. In order to maintain this protection, do not give your password to anyone. Expedite staff will never proactively reach out to you and ask for any personal account information, including your password. If you share a computer or mobile device, in order to protect your information entered on public terminals from disclosure to third parties, you should sign out of your Expedite account and close the browser window before someone else logs-on. Expedite has security measures in place intended to help protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control.

International. Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computer networks which may be located outside of the state, province, or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside; and the privacy laws governing the country/jurisdiction of these computer networks may be less protective.

Expedite takes steps to ensure that your information is secure on its system. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, Expedite cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. EXPEDITE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ENSURING, GUARANTEEING, OR OTHERWISE OFFERING ANY DEFINITIVE PROMISE OF SECURITY IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION OR USAGE INFORMATION AND FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY THAT MAY ARISE SHOULD ANY OTHER INDIVIDUALS OBTAIN THE INFORMATION YOU SUBMIT TO THE EXPEDITE PLATFORM.

11. Links to Third Party Websites and Online Services

This Policy applies solely to information collected by the Expedite Platform. The Expedite Platform may contain links to other websites, charitable organizations, or online services; and we of course are not responsible for other websites’ privacy practices.
