II. Personal information collected and use of this information
- Core Account Data - although it is not compulsory to give us this information, if you do not then you cannot register as a member of the Service, or make a booking for a parking space. A User may also amend or update the data concerning him/her by using the tab "My Account". We will collect the following data.
- Name - we need to store this to identify you in the provision of our service.
- Email - we’ll send emails to you about your bookings and the MyflexiPark service. We won’t share your email with third parties.
- Car number plate - we store this for enforcement purposes. We share this with the owner of the parking along with parking session dates and times
- IP Address - this is used by us and some of our third-party providers to identify your device in the provision of our service. It is also used for fraud checks and to ensure a secure product.
- Payment method - payment method details you provide (including name, email address and sometimes address) are sent directly to PCI-compliant third party payment providers. They are not stored on MyflexiPark servers and MyflexiPark employees do not have access to these details.
- Booking history - we store a history of where and when you’ve booked parking to make repeat use faster and easier for you, and in interest of your and our accounting purposes.
- Phone number - we store this so drivers can contact parking space operators and vice versa. Phone numbers are only shared when you’ve made payment for a booking. We may contact you via phone should there be any issues with your bookings or account.
- Reviews - if you choose to leave a review for a parking location, this will be shown to other drivers considering booking the space (only showing your first name and the initial of your last name).
- Location data - if you choose to enable location services, we will occasionally store your location services data to improve our parking availability engine - which helps us show you and other drivers when we think spaces will be available to park in. You can stop this data from being stored by turning off your location services.
- Administering your booking - MyflexiPark customer support workers may view the above data (aside from sensitive payment method details) when administering your booking.
- Parking Space Listing Data - to list your parking space with us we will collect the following data:
- Parking space address - we use this to show drivers where your space is.
- Space description - this is a public-facing description you provide when adding your space which helps drivers decide if a space is suitable.
- Photos of your space - these public-facing photos help drivers decide if a space is suitable and help them access it on arrival.
- Facilities - these are public-facing space attributes, which you can optionally provide to help drivers decide if a space is suitable for them.
- Access instructions - if you provide these when adding your space, they are used to help drivers access your space. They are not shown to the driver until they have paid to park in your space. Once the parking session has finished, they are hidden from the driver.
- PIN code for accessing space - if you provide a pin code (e.g. for a gate) it is given to drivers to help them access your space. It is not shown to the driver until they have paid to park in your space. Once the parking session has finished, it is hidden from the driver.
