3. Why do we process your personal data?
In order for us to process your personal data in accordance with the law, it is necessary for us to have a
predetermined purpose for processing them. Below we list the purposes for which your personal data is
collected and further processed.
For the purposes of registering, creating and managing an account in SVIŠŤ and the subsequent
provision of services
To use SVIŠT and its functionalities, it is necessary to register in the SVIŠT application and create a user
account in SVIŠT. In most cases, the legal reason for processing your personal data is the fulfillment of a
contract.
In this case, we will work with the contact information you provide us, especially through the SVIŠT
mobile application.
For this purpose, we obtain your personal data because we provide you with our service (use of SVIŠŤ),
freely chosen by you in accordance with our terms governing the provision of the chosen service. By
accepting our terms governing the provision of your chosen service, a contract is concluded between you
and our company.
For the purpose of finding or renting a vehicle (especially a scooter or bicycle)
We help you find or rent a vehicle. We collect and process personal data in order to show you the location
of our nearest vehicles available for rent, such as our scooters or bicycles.
Quick messages directly in the SVIŠT application are processed for the purpose of providing services and
customer support (including resolving disputes between the driver and the passenger), for the purpose of
security, analysis, as well as to improve our products and services.
For the purpose of determining the route and ensuring a smooth journey
We use geolocation data to ensure you get to your destination and to resolve quality issues related to our
services. We also need to know where you choose to drop off your rental vehicle so we can properly bill,
charge batteries and maintain our fleet.
We also collect data about the routes taken by our users to analyze the geographical coverage. For
example, it allows us to improve recommendations to users about the most efficient routes and helps us
ensure that our rental vehicles, such as our scooters, are in the most convenient locations for customers.
For the purpose of optimizing the SVIŠT application
We use contact data to inform users about updates to the SVIŠT application so that they can continue to
enjoy our services.
We also collect limited data from the device you use to connect to our Internet, mobile and telephone
services and to ensure the security of your account through authentication and verification controls.
For the purpose of making the payment
We collect payment data to process user payments. We also process payments for our rental vehicles,
such as our cars and scooters.
To maintain and promote standards
We collect information about ride statuses, time and user ratings based on feedback, ensuring
compliance with our terms and conditions, and making sure we provide quality and enjoyable service for
everyone. Customer support data and correspondence is collected for feedback purposes and to resolve
disputes and quality of service issues.
For the purpose of providing information to users
We keep you informed: Your name, phone number and email address will be used to communicate with
you, for example to inform you that your ride has ended, to send you ride confirmations and important
service updates, for example, if our scooter rental services are suspended during inclement weather.
When using SVIŠT rented vehicles, we process data collected through the sensors of the rented vehicles
for safety purposes, to identify potentially dangerous driving behavior and, if necessary, to send
notifications to the person concerned about detected dangerous behavior - i.e. when there is a significant
change in weight compared to the previous ride. The relevant notification has no serious consequences
for the person concerned - the aim is to ensure a safe driving style.
To fulfill legal obligations
Special legal regulations may impose various obligations on us as a service provider, for the purpose of
which the processing of your personal data is necessary. An example of when the purpose of processing
personal data is the fulfillment of legal obligations is the Accounting Act, according to which we are
obliged to store certain data for paid services for the period specified in this Act.
The purpose of this processing is to keep records and handle court disputes and other legal proceedings,
through which GoScooters mainly pursues proving, exercising and or defending its legal claims. In this
case, the legal basis is the legitimate interests of our company as the operator of the Application, through
which it pursues the demonstration, application or defense of its legal claims.
To evaluate, maintain and improve our products and services and to develop new products and
services
Based on your information, we ensure that our products and services work as you expect them to, for
example, we monitor outages or fix problems that you report to us.
With the help of your information, we also try to innovate our products and services - for example, when,
based on your suggestions, we determine the need to improve the quality of the service or register a
demand for a new product or service, or evaluate the need for higher user protection, etc.
The information we collect within the existing offer of products and services helps us to improve the
quality of the development of new products and services.
To provide customized products and services, including content and advertisements
On the basis of information from you, we are able to ensure that when selling our products or providing
our services, the provided service is "tailored" to your needs and preferences.
We provide you with customized content, e.g. through the display of relevant recommended articles,
relevant and interesting offers for you, which we believe could appeal to and interest you,
recommendations or other similar measures to facilitate your use of our products and services and
improve your user experience when using our services or choosing and purchasing our products.
The aim of processing your personal data for this purpose is also to simplify the use of our company's
services, e.g. preferring payment methods for the purpose of future payments for our products and
services.
The information we collect from your various devices (operating system version, application version and
device hardware information) helps us maintain a consistent offering of goods and services across all of
your devices.
To enforce the security of services, prevent abuse of services and investigate violations of our
conditions
We care about the security of our service offering. In order to enforce the security of our services, we
process your personal data also as part of the prevention of spam, phishing, harassment, misuse of your
user accounts or other prohibited activities.
As part of this processing purpose, we implement our commitment to you to ensure the protection of our
IT environment against attacks and other interventions, so that the use of our services is safe. We ensure
that the terms of our services are respected by other users, thus ensuring a valuable and safe use of the
services.
Thanks to information from computers, phones and other devices on which you install and use our
services, or when you purchase our products, depending on the permissions you have granted, we can
ensure a higher protection of your privacy. We use the obtained data as an aid in the provision and
support of our services and also for the purpose of increasing your security. The data collected from the
devices helps us to verify the user's identity, as we constantly strive to protect your account through a
team of engineers and technologies, such as encrypting both communications and other content (such as
photos) through the HTTPS protocol.
4. What is the legal basis for the processing of your personal data in the sense of the
Protection Act
personal data and GDPR?
The legality of processing your personal data is justified by the following legal bases:
As a rule, personal data is processed for the purpose of providing contracted services through the SVIŠŤ
application. This means that in order to provide you with the promised service and fulfill our terms, we
will process your personal data in order to fulfill these obligations.
In other circumstances, we generally process your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest.
Legitimate interests include our business interests in providing innovative, personalised, safe and
cost-effective services to our passengers and partners, unless these interests outweigh other interests.
Our legitimate interests also include investigating and detecting fraudulent payments and other malicious
activity, maintaining the security of our network and systems, implementing and maintaining features to
ensure the security of our services, and responding to suspected or actual criminal activity.
We may sometimes rely on alternative legal bases when:
- it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, such as processing data where required by law, including for example where there is a valid legal requirement to disclose personal data to a third party, such as a court or regulatory authority;
- we protect our life interests or the interests of others, for example in the event of an emergency or immediate threat to life; or
- you have given us your express consent for this with another specific purpose of which you have been fully informed.
If you choose not to provide us with your personal data, this may prevent us from fulfilling our contractual
obligations to you or from the activity that is expected of us by law. It may also mean that we cannot
operate your account. For example, we collect and process the personal data provided by you during the
installation and use of the SVIŠT application. Refusing to share geolocation data through the app means
that we cannot show our rental vehicles near you. We will not be able to fulfill our obligations to you in
other circumstances, such as if you refuse to perform a verification check to ensure the integrity of your
account. Such an account may be suspended or blocked in order to prevent fraud.
If we process your personal data based on your consent, you are entitled to revoke this consent at any
time.
