Lawful Retention Exceptions

Under South African law (including POPIA Section 14 and the Tax Administration Act), certain records must be retained:

  • • Financial and tax records: Invoices, transaction values, payment references, and voucher balances must be retained for statutory audit periods (up to 5 years).
  • • Dispute and safety records: Resolved safety incidents, complaints, and chargeback audits necessary to defend legal claims.
  • • De-identified trip data: Anonymized trip records (pick-up zone, drop-off zone, fare) retained without personal identifiers for platform analytics.

Notice for Drivers & Vehicle Owners

If your account is registered as a Driver or Vehicle Owner, all active rides must be completed, and any pending settlements or payout batches must be finalized before deletion can proceed. If you have an outstanding settlement in process, the system will block deletion and request you to contact dispatch at 084 887 0539.
