OUR COMMITMENT TO PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY

At ACS, we are committed to protecting your personal and data privacy. To ensure that you can make informed decisions and feel confident about supplying your Personal Data (as defined below) to us when using our website, mobile and other services, we provide this notice outlining our practices and the choices you have concerning how your Personal Data is being collected and used by us.

 

WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT? 

Booking Information: When booking car services we ask for your name, telephone numbers, mobile messaging app addresses, email address, travel itinerary and service details. This helps us to process your booking, to contact you if we have any problems with your request or to send you an electronic confirmation of any quotes obtained or bookings made.

Payment Details: If you pay for your service at the time of booking you will be asked to enter your credit or debit card information and billing information, including name of cardholder, card number, billing address and expiry date;

Online Account Information: When you make a booking, we will give you the opportunity to create an online account. If you accept, we will store the personal details you provide in our customer database. Information such as company name, business title and associated contact information; your payment card type, number and expiration date to enable us to take your payment; service preferences such as vehicle type and special requests. This will enable you to make future bookings more rapidly and more personalized. Deletion of your online account will not delete the personal data that we hold on file. You are able to view and correct the personal data we hold at any time, see the accessing and updating information section on how to do so.

History of Transactions: We will maintain electronic records of all bookings you have made. 

IP address: We collect your IP address when you visit our site. This only identifies your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and does not contain any information about you as an individual. We use this in-formation to help us understand more about where our site traffic originates.

Cookies: Our website uses "cookie" technology. "Cookies" are encrypted strings of text that a website stores on a user's computer. Cookies enable us to customize our website and offerings to your needs and provide you with a better online experience. In addition, cookies are used to measure usage of various pages on our website to help us make our information more pertinent to your needs and easy for you to access.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR DATA?

Delivery of Service: We use the personal information collected through our Web Site, Services, or Mobile App to administer and deliver our services. In connection with the delivery of our services, we may share the Personal Information with third-party partners or vendors who help deliver or administer the services, but they are only permitted to use the information in connection with the delivery or administration of our services. For example, we share a Client's credit card information with a third-party credit card processing company, but that company is not permitted to use the credit card or Personal Information for any purpose other than to fulfill the specific purchase transaction. We may also share select Personal Information with our subsidiaries, affiliates, and subcontracted service providers who need such information to provide the services that you have specifically requested.

HOW DOES ACS PROTECT YOUR DATA?

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology is used to protect personal information such as credit card details when making a booking. Any personal information that we hold as part of your customer profile will be held in a database with physical and technological security controls and procedures in place.

Only the last 4 digits of your credit card number will be displayed when viewing, amending or deleting your credit card details or on any booking on our website.

Our commitment to data security

The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as your payment card number) during any registration or booking process, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personally identifiable information and personal data submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. With this in mind we would ask you not to enter any payment card number into fields on our websites, unless that the field is specifically marked for that purpose.

Accessing and updating information

You may request access to and correct your Personal Data held by us. If you wish to obtain a copy of any of your Personal Data, if you believe that the Personal Data relating to you which we collect and maintain is incorrect, or if you believe that the Personal Data held by us was used beyond the scope of the purpose of use disclosed above or was acquired by fraudulent or unlawful means or provided to a third party without your prior consent, please write to us at the address below.
