8 privacy and data sections

Plain-English Summary

Rent2Go uses customer and vehicle-rental information to provide bookings, manage payments, complete handovers, support customers, meet legal duties, and protect the business and customers from misuse. We do not sell customer personal data.

What We Collect

Account and contact details such as name, email address, telephone number, and login identifiers.
Booking information including selected vehicle, pickup and return dates, location, payment choice, add-ons, and rental history.
Driver verification and handover records, including identity-check status, signed documents, inspection notes, and evidence media captured during rental operations.
Support information including message threads, callback requests, roadside assistance requests, and service notes.
Technical data such as device type, app/browser information, IP address, security logs, and cookie or analytics signals where enabled.

How We Use Information

To create and manage bookings, quotes, payments, deposits, extensions, cancellations, and customer account access.
To complete vehicle handover and return checks, maintain rental records, prevent fraud, and resolve disputes or insurance matters.
To provide customer support, roadside assistance, notifications, booking updates, and operational communication.
To meet legal, tax, accounting, insurance, road-traffic, and regulatory obligations.
To improve Rent2Go services, fleet planning, website performance, app reliability, and local branch operations.

Payments and Financial Data

Rent2Go may offer online payment and pay-on-pickup options. Card payments are processed by payment providers and banks rather than storing full card numbers on Rent2Go systems.
We keep payment status, invoice totals, deposit records, refund records, and transaction references needed for booking management and accounting.
Where payment providers process data, their own privacy terms may also apply to their processing activities.

Sharing and Processors

We share information only where needed to operate the rental service, process payments, provide hosting and communications, support customers, insure or recover vehicles, or comply with law.
Operational partners may include payment processors, email/SMS providers, hosting providers, analytics/security tooling, insurers, roadside support, professional advisers, and public authorities where legally required.
We do not sell customer personal data.

Retention

Booking, invoice, handover, and support records are retained for as long as needed for contract performance, legal obligations, insurance, accounting, dispute management, and fraud prevention.
Where records are no longer needed, they are deleted, anonymised, or archived according to operational and legal requirements.

Your Rights

You may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or review of automated decisions where these rights apply under UK data-protection law.
Some records may need to be retained despite a deletion request where legal, accounting, insurance, security, or dispute obligations require it.
To raise a privacy request, contact Rent2Go using the contact page and include enough information for us to identify your account or booking.

Security

Rent2Go uses account controls, access restrictions, transport encryption, operational logging, and staff permission controls to protect booking and customer information.
No online system can be guaranteed completely secure, so customers should keep account credentials private and report suspicious account activity promptly.

This policy may be updated as Rent2Go services, app functionality, legal requirements, or supplier arrangements change.
