1. Introduction

This Cookie & Tracking Notice explains how 3rip Technologies Ltd. ("3rip", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies, pixels, SDKs, local storage, device identifiers and similar technologies when you use our websites, mobile applications, online services and other digital platforms (collectively, the "Services").

These technologies help us operate the Services, remember your preferences, understand how our Services are used, improve performance, protect accounts and transactions, and support relevant communications and marketing where permitted.

This Notice should be read together with our 3rip Privacy Policy and other applicable 3rip policies.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files or similar identifiers that are stored on your browser or device when you visit a website.

Cookies may allow a website to:

• remember your preferences;
• keep you signed in;
• maintain a booking or session;
• understand how users interact with the website;
• improve website performance;
• detect fraud and security threats;
• measure advertising effectiveness; and
• provide relevant content or communications.

Cookies may be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period.

3. Other Tracking Technologies

Cookies are not the only technologies we may use.

Depending on the Service and your settings, 3rip may use technologies such as:

3.1 Pixels and Web Beacons

Small electronic images or code may be used to understand whether a page, email or communication has been opened or interacted with.

3.2 Software Development Kits (SDKs)

Our mobile applications may contain SDKs that help us operate features, understand application performance, identify technical problems, measure usage and maintain security.

3.3 Local Storage

Information may be stored locally on your browser or device to remember settings, improve performance or support functionality.

3.4 Device and Advertising Identifiers

Where applicable, we may use device or advertising identifiers to help distinguish devices, prevent fraud, measure campaigns or support permitted advertising and analytics activities.

3.5 Log and Technical Data

Our systems may automatically record technical information such as browser type, operating system, application version, IP address, device information, timestamps and interaction data.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies.

4.1 Strictly Necessary Technologies

These technologies are required for important parts of the Services to function.

They may be used for:

• account authentication;
• login sessions;
• security;
• fraud prevention;
• booking and ride functionality;
• payment processing;
• maintaining application sessions;
• remembering essential settings;
• load balancing; and
• preventing unauthorized access.

Because these technologies are necessary for the operation and security of the Services, disabling them may affect functionality.

4.2 Functional Technologies

Functional technologies help us remember choices and preferences.

For example, they may help us remember:

• language preferences;
• selected settings;
• preferred interface options;
• certain previous interactions; and
• other functionality preferences.

4.3 Analytics and Performance Technologies

These technologies help us understand how people use our Services.

We may use analytics information to understand:

• which pages are visited;
• which features are used;
• how users navigate our website or application;
• application crashes and technical problems;
• loading and response times;
• general usage trends; and
• the effectiveness of improvements we make.

Analytics information may be aggregated or otherwise analyzed to improve our Services.

4.4 Security and Fraud-Prevention Technologies

We may use cookies, device identifiers, SDKs and related technologies to identify suspicious activity and protect the 3rip platform.

These technologies may help us detect:

• unusual login activity;
• account takeover attempts;
• fraudulent transactions;
• fake or duplicate accounts;
• automated abuse;
• suspicious device activity;
• promotion or referral abuse; and
• other activity that may compromise the security or integrity of the platform.

4.5 Advertising and Marketing Technologies

Where applicable and permitted, 3rip or our service providers may use tracking technologies to:

• measure advertising campaigns;
• understand whether advertisements result in visits or actions;
• provide more relevant promotional communications;
• limit repetitive advertisements;
• understand marketing performance; and
• build aggregated audience insights.

We do not permit tracking technologies to be used for purposes inconsistent with our Privacy Policy or applicable law.

5. Third-Party Technologies

Some technologies used on our Services may be provided by third parties.

These may include providers of:

• analytics services;
• payment services;
• mapping and location services;
• communications services;
• security and fraud prevention;
• customer support;
• advertising and marketing;
• application performance monitoring; and
• other technical infrastructure.

Third-party providers may collect information through their own technologies in accordance with their applicable terms and privacy policies.

Where appropriate, 3rip takes steps to ensure that third-party service providers process information only for authorized purposes.

6. Cookies Used for Ride and Account Functionality

Certain technologies may be particularly important to a ride-hailing platform.

For example, we may use technologies to help:

• maintain your logged-in session;
• remember your selected pickup and destination information;
• maintain booking information;
• support rider and driver account functionality;
• maintain security during transactions;
• identify the appropriate application session;
• support customer support interactions; and
• protect against unauthorized activity.

Some of these functions may rely on technologies that are essential to the Services.

7. Location-Related Technologies

The 3rip platform may process location information when you use location-dependent features such as requesting or providing a ride.

Location information may be obtained through:

• your device's location services;
• application permissions;
• browser permissions;
• GPS;
• network information; and
• other technical location signals.

Cookies themselves are not necessarily the source of precise location information. Location processing is primarily governed by our Privacy Policy, applicable application permissions and device settings.

You may control location permissions through your device or browser settings. However, disabling location access may prevent certain 3rip features from working correctly.

11. Communications and Email Tracking

Where technically available and permitted, 3rip may use tracking technologies in certain electronic communications to determine whether a communication has been delivered, opened or interacted with.

This may help us:

• understand communication effectiveness;
• improve service messages;
• identify technical delivery problems; and
• improve the relevance of communications.

Essential transactional communications, such as account, security, booking or payment-related messages, may still be sent where necessary to provide the Services or meet our legal obligations.

12. Your Choices

Depending on the technology and the applicable Service, you may have choices regarding tracking.

These may include:

• browser cookie controls;
• device privacy settings;
• application permissions;
• advertising preferences provided by your device;
• communication preferences; and
• cookie or consent controls presented by the 3rip website.

Some technologies cannot be disabled without affecting essential Services.

13. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers provide a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting.

Because there is currently no universally accepted technical standard for responding to all DNT signals, our Services may not respond to every DNT configuration in the same manner.

We will continue to monitor applicable technical and legal standards regarding browser privacy signals.

14. Data Protection and Privacy

Information collected through cookies and similar technologies may constitute personal information depending on the circumstances.

3rip handles such information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection requirements.

Our Privacy Policy provides additional information about:

• how information is used;
• information sharing;
• data retention;
• security;

The length of time information collected through cookies or similar technologies is retained may vary depending on:

• the purpose for which it was collected;
• the type of technology used;
• technical requirements;
• security requirements;
• legal obligations; and
• our legitimate business needs.

Some session information may expire when you close your browser or application, while other information may remain for longer periods.
