When you use Ondy, you trust us with your personal data. We’re committed to keeping that trust. That starts with helping you understand our privacy practices.
Our Privacy Policy applies to all platforms and services Ondy offers, including our website and mobile applications (collectively “Services”) and applies the same to all users, whether you are a driver who picks-up, carries or drops-off goods (“Driver”), someone using our Services to send goods with a Driver (“Sender”), the recipient of goods (“Recipient”) or someone who signs-up to potentially use our Services (collectively, “Users”).
BY USING OUR SERVICES OR BY OTHERWISE GIVING US YOUR INFORMATION, YOU AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY. If you do not agree with the Privacy Policy, you should not use our Services or give us any of your personal information. You should also review Ondy’s Terms and Conditions, which also apply to your use of the Services.
Account Information: When you sign up to use our Services, we collect the personal information you provide to us, including your name, email address, mobile phone number, and payment information. You may choose to share additional information as well, such as a profile photo or saved addresses, and set up other preferences.
Driver Information: If you apply to be a Driver, we collect the personal information you provide in your application, including your name, email address, mobile phone number, date of birth, profile photo, physical address, social security number, driver’s license information, vehicle information, and auto insurance information. We also collect the payment information you provide, including your bank routing numbers and tax information.

Ondy Referral Programs: If you participate in any Ondy referral program, such as recommending our Services to a friend or recommending a friend for a job with Ondy, we will ask you for certain information about your friend, including their name and email address or mobile number. We store this information for the sole purpose of contacting the referral about our Services and tracking the success of our referral programs.
Job Applications: If you apply to be an employee with Ondy, we will collect the information you submit to us, including your resume, contact information, and references.
Usage Information. We collect information about your use of the Services, including pick-up and drop-off information, package details, date, time, destination, distance, route, payment, and whether you used a promotional or referral code. We also collect information about your interactions with the Services, including the pages and content you view on the web site or app, and the dates and times you access the Services.
Geo-location: Your device will share your GPS coordinates when the Ondy mobile application is open.
Information About Your Device: We collect information about the device you use to access the Services, including device manufacturer and model, operating system, the mobile browser you use, mobile carrier, device and advertising identifiers, IP address, and preferences and settings (such as preferred language and push notification settings).
Cookies, Analytics and Third Party Technologies: We and our third-party service providers use a variety of technologies that passively and automatically collect certain information whenever you visit or interact with our Services, including the technologies listed below:
Cookies: A cookie is a data file placed on your computer or mobile device when it is used to access our Services. Cookies may be used for many purposes, including, without limitation, remembering you and your preferences and tracking your visits to our Website and web pages.
Web Beacons: Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier (“1×1 GIFs” or “clear GIFs”), similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. Web beacons allow us to understand how Users navigate our Services and what content is effective, which allows us to manage and improve the Services. We also use web beacon technologies to count Users of our Services, how many of the e-mails we send were opened and how many particular articles or links on our pages were actually viewed.
Embedded Scripts: Embedded Scripts are programming code and collect information about your exchanges and communications with our Services. They are temporarily downloaded onto your device from our web server (or from a third party service provider), and are active only while you are connected to our Services. The code is deactivated and/or deleted after.
If you have signed up for Co-Branded Services (see below), Ondy will receive information from our partner about you, the package you are sending, and delivery details. Ondy will use any such information consistent with the terms of this Policy.
In the normal course of business we may supplement the information we collect about Users with outside records from third parties, including governmental agencies and background check providers (for Drivers), financial service providers, and advertising providers.
To Verify Your Identity and Protect Against Fraud: We use your personal information and biometric data to verify your identity, help make our app and service secure, and to protect against and investigate fraud.
To Provide and Operate the Services: We use your personal information to process your registration and to verify your information is valid and up-to-date, to respond to your inquiries, provide the services you request, process payments, and otherwise manage your account. We may also use your personal information to customize your experience with our Services, or to serve you content that is most relevant to you, and to enable you to participate in a variety of our Services’ features such as sweepstakes and promotions and administer these activities. We may also use your personal information to investigate and resolve incidents in connection with the Services.
Improving the Services: We use your personal information to perform research, testing, and analysis; develop new products, features, partnerships, and services; prevent, find, and resolve software or hardware issues; and monitor and improve our operations and processes, including security practices, algorithms, and other modeling.
Consider Your Application for Employment: If you have applied for a job with Ondy, we will use your personal information to consider your qualifications for employment.
We may also use your personal information and other information we collect as we believe to be necessary or appropriate for certain essential purposes, including:
If you submit any information relating to other people in connection with the Services, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We do not sell your personal information. To deliver our Services, we may share your personal information with other Users, third parties, and service providers in the following ways:
User Content: Your member profile and information that you post or share, such as photos, reviews, comments, suggestions, questions about a Gig, information about you or your experience, posts or comments on Ondy’s blogs or community forums (collectively “User Content”), may be seen and shared with other Users of our Services or the public. You should therefore think carefully before deciding what information you share.
Information Shared Between Users: We provide some of your personal information, such as your first name, photo, and details about your package and delivery, to the Driver who bids on/accepts your Gig, so that the Driver may contact the Sender, facilitate pick-up and delivery, and so that you can track your package to the Recipient.
Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf: Ondy uses third party vendors to assist in providing the Services to Users. We may provide these vendors with access to the following categories of personal information (as we have done for the past 12 months):
We may disclose your personal information for the following business purposes: verify your identity, design and/or operate the Services, track our Services’ analytics, process payments, assist in anti-fraud and security measures, help us provide customer support and geo-location information to our Users and to provide advertising services to Ondy. Third parties enable us to provide many administrative services, including sending you special offers and targeted advertisements, hosting our job application form, performing technical and maintenance services, database management, web analytics, and other administrative services.
Google Analytics: Ondy uses Google Analytics Display Advertising, including Remarketing, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, the DoubleClick Cookie and/or Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting to target and serve ads based on your past visits to our website, to gather information about the success of ad impressions and our Users’ interactions with ad impressions, measure and research the effectiveness of Ondy’s features, offerings, advertisements, and email communications (by determining which emails you open and act upon) and other uses of ad services related to visits to our site or use of the mobile app. In conjunction with these features, your web browser automatically sends certain information to Google when you visit our site or use the app. To see how Google uses your information go to How Google uses data.
Co-Branded Services: At times, some of our Services may be provided to you in association with third parties including charities and sponsors (“Co-Branded Services”) and your use of these Co-Branded Services may require you or us to disclose certain of your information to the third party, for instance to confirm your package has been delivered. Any Co-Branded Services offered to you will specifically identify the third party. Any information that you disclose directly to a third party will be subject to that party’s posted privacy policy.
Sweepstakes, Contests and Promotions: From time to time Ondy may offer sweepstakes, contests, and other promotions (“Promotion”) that require registration. Each Promotion may contain specific rules and requirements, which will be disclosed to you at the time of sign-up. If you choose to enter a Promotion, your information may be disclosed to third parties or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, and as required by law or permitted by the Promotion’s official rules, such as on a winners list.
Legal Reasons: We may access, use, preserve, transfer and disclose your personal information to government, law enforcement officials and/or private parties as we reasonably determine to be necessary and appropriate to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, subpoenas, governmental requests or legal process; to protect the safety, rights, property or security of Ondy, our Services or any third party, including you; to protect the safety of the public; to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and/or to prevent or stop activity we reasonably consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, an illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity.
Investors and Affiliates: We may share your personal information with current, future and prospective individual investors or with our parent, subsidiaries and affiliates for internal reasons, including, during the course of any due diligence process.
Business Transfers and Financings: We may disclose and transfer all your information to a prospective or subsequent owner, co-owner or operator of the Services or applicable database or in connection with a financing, corporate merger, consolidation, restructuring, the sale of substantially all of our assets or other corporate change.
All Users.
Emails: You can unsubscribe from marketing-related emails by clicking unsubscribe at the bottom of any message. We will still send you transactional and administrative emails about your use of the Services and your account.
Text Messages: You can opt out of text messages by contacting support@ondy.io, changing your account settings, or replying STOP from the mobile device that received the message.
Push Notifications: You can opt out of receiving push notifications through your device settings.
Location Information: To ensure the safe delivery of packages, Ondy’s Terms and Conditions requires Drivers to keep their location on while pickups and deliveries are in progress. Users can otherwise prevent their device from sharing location information through the device’s system settings. Note that this may impact Ondy’s ability to provide you our full range of features and services.
Targeted Advertising: If you would like to opt out of any targeted advertising from us, please access the NAI Opt-Out Page. Please note that this will opt you out of targeted ads from all participating advertisers. If you opt out, you may continue to receive online advertising from us; however, these ads may not be as relevant to you.
Note that in order for behavioral advertising opt-outs to work on your device, your browser must be set to accept Cookies. If you delete Cookies, buy a new device, access our Services from a different device, login under a different screen name, or change web browsers, you will need to opt-out again.
Cookies: You can modify your cookie settings on your browser, but if you delete or choose not to accept our cookies, you may be missing out on certain features of the Services.
Do Not Track: Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications and services that you do not want them to track your online activities. Ondy does not currently support Do Not Track requests because there is no standard interpretation or practice for such signals.
Modifying Your Account Information: You can review and modify certain account information by logging in to your account settings and profile.
User Content: To request removal of your User Content, please contact us through support@ondy.io. We will make reasonable efforts to remove your User Content as requested.
Closing Your Account: You can cancel your User account by contacting us at support@ondy.io. Even after you close your Ondy account, we will retain certain of your information (including geo-location, trip history, credit card information and transaction history) as needed to comply with our legal, regulatory and contractual obligations, resolve disputes, conclude any activities related to cancellation of an account (such as addressing chargebacks from your credit card company), investigate or prevent fraud and other inappropriate activity, to enforce our agreements, and for other business reasons. After a period of time, your data may be anonymized and aggregated, and then may be held by us as long as necessary for us to provide our Services effectively.
