Privacy policy

A plain-language summary, not the binding text. The operative version is being prepared with counsel and will replace this page before checkout opens.

Draft, pending legal review. It describes what the system actually does, field by field. It is written to the GDPR standard everywhere, with the additions US state law and KVKK require (ADR 0017). Not yet reviewed by a lawyer; company and registration details are to be completed.

moovoy is the controller of what is described here — veri sorumlusu under KVKK, "business" under the CCPA.

1. What we hold, and why

Everything below is something the system genuinely stores.

WhatWhyHow long
Your name and email addressTo open an account, and so an operator knows who to meetUntil you close the account
Your password, hashedTo sign you in. We cannot read itUntil you close the account
Which terms you accepted, which version, and whenTo show what was agreed10 years
Whether you asked for marketing email, and whenBecause we may only send it if you didUntil you close the account
Your phone number, passenger name, flight number and notes, given at bookingSo the operator can carry you and reach you on the dayWith the journey record
Your journeys — route, times, operator, price, and how the price was worked outTo perform the contract, and to answer questions about it10 years (tax law)
Payments, refunds, extras you approved, and when you approved themTax law, and to show you consented to each charge10 years
A reference to a card you asked the payment provider to keep, and its label (e.g. "Visa ending 4242")So a later payment you approve is one tap. Never the card numberUntil you remove it
Saved places, travellers and preferencesSo you do not type them twiceUntil you delete them
Your reviewsTo inform other customersUntil you delete them; removed reviews are kept on our record
Notices we sent you, and whether the email leftTo show we told you3 years
A problem you reported, and what was decidedTo resolve it, and to see a pattern10 years
A note an operator wrote about a journey with youThe operator's own record, visible only inside that operatorAs long as the operator's account exists

If you work for an operator, we also hold your business account, your role and abilities, invitations, and — for the owner — the company's details and the documents it uploaded, with an append-only record of every decision about them.

We do not store card numbers, and never see them. We do not build a profile of you, we do not infer anything about your health, beliefs or politics, and we do not sell or share your personal information for advertising.

2. On what legal basis

  • Performing our contract with you — your account, bookings, payments.
  • A legal obligation — invoices and journey records.
  • Your consent — marketing email and any non-essential cookie. Separate, off by default, withdrawn in one click.
  • Our legitimate interest — security, fraud prevention, and the record that shows what we checked about operators. Balanced against your rights and never a catch-all.

3. Who else sees it

Only these, only what they need, each under a contract:

WhoWhat they getWhy
The operator you bookedYour name, phone, route, times, flight and notesThey carry you
The payment provider (Stripe; iyzico for operators in Türkiye)What is needed to hold and take a payment, and your card if you ask it to keep itPayment
Google (Maps Platform)The address text you type, and the two points of a routeAddress suggestions and distance
Resend (email)Your address and the messageTo deliver email you are expecting
Cloudinary (media)Photographs operators uploadHosting pictures
Railway, Vercel (hosting)The database, as infrastructureTo run the site
Authorities or a courtWhat is lawfully requiredBecause it is required

The operator becomes a controller of what we pass them, for their own records. Their agreement with us requires their own privacy notice, forbids marketing to you from our data, and forbids selling it.

4. Where it is held

The database and the API are in Europe. Some providers above process data in the United States and elsewhere. Transfers rest on standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision, and, where KVKK requires, your explicit consent. A lawyer must confirm this paragraph before launch.

5. What you can do

Wherever you live:

  • See it — including any note an operator wrote about you. Ask us, and we answer within 30 days.
  • Correct it — in your account, or by writing to us.
  • Delete it — close your account and the personal parts go. What survives is the journey and payment record the law requires us to keep.
  • Take it elsewhere — in a machine-readable file.
  • Withdraw consent — one click for marketing; the cookie settings link for cookies.
  • Object where we rely on legitimate interest.
  • Complain — to us first at hello@moovoy.com, then to the supervisory authority where you live.

Regional additions

  • California (CCPA/CPRA) — you have the rights to know, delete, correct, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share it, and we do not use sensitive personal information beyond what a booking needs. We will not treat you differently for using these rights. An authorised agent may make a request for you.
  • European Union and EEA (GDPR) — the rights above, and a complaint to the data protection authority in your country.
  • Türkiye (KVKK Article 11) — the rights above, answered within 30 days, and a complaint to the Kişisel Verileri Koruma Kurumu.

6. Children

moovoy is not for people under 18. A child travelling as a passenger is named by the adult who books; we hold that name and any requirement, such as a child seat, and nothing else.

7. If something goes wrong

If personal data is exposed, we tell the relevant authority within 72 hours of becoming aware, and tell you directly where it is likely to put you at risk.

8. Changes

We tell you before a material change takes effect. The version you were shown is recorded with the date.

9. Reaching us

moovoy · hello@moovoy.com

Company name, address, and registration numbers (including VERBİS for Türkiye) to be completed before launch.

We collect what a booking needs and little else: your name, an email address, the journey details you enter, and - where a service requires it - the passenger or passport information the operator is obliged to hold. Payment card details are handled by the payment provider and never reach our servers.

The operator you book is shown what they need to carry out that journey, and nothing about your other bookings. The payment provider is shown what it needs to take and settle the payment. We do not sell anything about you, and we do not pass your details to operators you did not choose.

You can ask us what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted, and we will do so except where we are required to keep a record of a completed transaction. Bookings are retained for as long as tax and accounting rules require, and enquiries that never became bookings are cleared after a year.
