Sharing your information
Personal information that you share
The Services are based on a community of users publicly sharing information with Roolz, with other members of that community and Roolz Business companies that users are related with and/or work for.
In particular, users may choose to share personal information such as name, age, gender, picture, their location information, email address, phone number, reports and other files. This information may be shared either directly to the Services and to all users, such as in the case of traffic reports, or just to your friends and/or colleagues on Roolz. This information may also be shared via third party services (such as social networks) which interact with the Services upon such users’ choice. For more information about your Roolz Business profile (if you choose to set one), see section titled Roolz Business Profile below. You can decide whether or not to upload content to the Services. However any content that you choose to share and submit for posting is neither private nor confidential and you should expect that it may be made public and known to others. Information you choose to upload will be posted along with your user name and other information including personal information you attached to your publicly available user profile. For example, your reports (map and road updates, traffic congestion updates, road accidents, etc.) will be posted on the Roolz map along with your username. You should note that certain road incidents you report may include your driving path within the vicinity of those incidents. Therefore, you must exercise caution and common sense when submitting information. At the very least you should demonstrate the same degree of caution as when publishing personal information by means other than the Internet and cellular services. if you choose to either record your own voice onto the Service, or to use the voice command features, Roolz will collect the voice information related to such use, including voice files. If, after recording your own voice, you chose to share your voice recordings, other Roolz users and other people will be able to download and use your voice recordings. Once downloaded, Roolz may not have any control over the voice files (and other types of files), so you should only share content that you are comfortable being made public.
We, at Roolz, take great measures to provide you with the best experience you can have while using the Services. However, Roolz has no control over the conduct of any user and disclaims all liability in this regard. Users are advised to carefully and thoroughly consider whether or not to make public or available any information and carefully examine all necessary details related to any communication with other users prior to any engagement or communication being made. Participating in any user’s activities as a result, directly or indirectly, from using Roolz, is entirely at your own risk. Roolz is not a party to any agreement entered into between the users in any circumstances. The user has the sole and ultimate responsibility regarding compliance with all laws, regulations or any other duty. We do not accept any liability for any loss, damage, cost or expense that you may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with your participation in any activity or event initiated, held or conducted by a user or a third party nor in connection to any agreement between the users or third parties, including any activity or event related in any way, directly or indirectly, the Services or the use thereof.

- As necessary for the facilitation and operation of the Services. For example, making public road incidents you report and which are associated with your username and your location;
- If Roolz reasonably believes that you have breached the Terms of Use or is investigating potential breach of the Terms of Use, or believes that you abused your rights to use the Services, or performed any act or omission that Roolz reasonably believes to be violating any applicable law, rules, or regulations.

- If Roolz organizes the operation of the Services within a different framework, or through another legal structure or entity, or if Roolz is acquired by, or merged into or with another entity, or if Roolz enters bankruptcy, provided however, that those entities agree to be bound by the provisions of this Privacy Policy, with respective changes taken into consideration;
- To collect, store, hold and manage your personal information through cloud based or hosting services or a third party or a party affiliated or connected to Roolz, as reasonable for business purposes, which may be located in the European Union and the U.S.A., potentially countries outside of your jurisdiction;
- Roolz may also share personal information with companies or organizations connected or affiliated with Roolz, such as subsidiaries, sister-companies and parent companies;
- We also work with selected advertising and measurement services which help us understand how our users interact with ads served in our platform and in order to provide marketing, advertising and measurement services for Roolz with respect to Roolz’s own marketing efforts, by using and sharing devices’ identifiers (i.e, Advertising ID, cookies or similar technologies).
- Personal information may also be shared with Roolz’s trusted partners and service providers to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with this policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. For example, we use service providers to help us with customer services.
We may share information which does not personally identify you with third party transportation services. For example, to allow you to deliver a shipment or find a new freight, we may share a temporary unique identifier along with pick-up and drop-off points that are generated based on proximity to your intended travel itinerary, with those third party transportation services.
Roolz partners with employers, organizations and governmental entities (“Roolz Business”) in order to encourage the use of Roolz’s platform and benefit all our users. If you have joined a Roolz Business group which is promoted by a partner or any other third party, your business profile (or other information you have chosen to share) may be visible to other members of the group, including representatives of the partner or third party who may also be part of the group.
Sale of Business
We reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Roolz or any of its Corporate Affiliates (as defined herein), or that portion of Roolz or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service relates, or in the event that we discontinue our business or file a petition or have filed against us a petition in bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Visibility
Please note that your username and some other information will be visible to others. Note that your username will be included along with any information you submit for posting (such as traffic reports or chat messages). It will therefore be visible to others. Also - your friends on Roolz will see your name, profile photo, online status and any other information you chose to share with them.
If you prefer to remain invisible on the Roolz map, you can set the Roolz Application not to show your location on the map. To do so you should go to the Privacy Settings and adjust accordingly by switching on to Invisible Mode. If on, some features may not be available. If you make this choice, while you will be ‘invisible’ on the map to other users, your location and route information will continue to be collected by Roolz for the purposes listed in this Privacy Policy and your Roolz Business profile (if you choose to set one) may be visible to other Roolz’s users.
Roolz Business Profile
Roolz Business is uniquely designed to help drivers, freight forwarders, shippers and everyone in logistics including companies to improve their productivity. If you have opted-in to use the Roolz Business feature, you may be required to provide additional information, including your company-related one. Your Roolz Business profile includes your name, photo, number of completed rides and km, the date you joined the services, information that you have chosen to share from your social account, your rating and endorsements you have received, and any other information you shared about yourself (for example your car details or any other information). You can edit some of this information through the in-app settings or through your social account (in case you have chosen to share the information from your social account).
A complete Roolz Business profile is important so that shippers and logisticians can learn more about you, and vice versa. Your profile is therefore public to other Roolz users and may be shared through our services. If you have joined the Roolz Business Groups feature, your Roolz Business profile will be visible to other group members, including your colleagues and/or employer in case of work related groups. If you choose to verify your work or university’s email address, your work or university will be listed publicly on your profile as well (but your email address will stay private).
Note: your home and work addresses are not listed publicly on your profile, but rather only be saved on your Roolz account. However, in certain circumstances, your pickup/drop-off spots may be your home or work address if for example you share a similar route with your driver or rider.
Integration with social networks
You may choose to share information between your Roolz account and your social network account (such as Facebook). Through this option, you may choose to have personal information and other content about you available from social networks, transmitted and shared through the Services. Similarly, you may choose to have personal information and other content about you available from Roolz, including your location and route information, transmitted to and shared through your social network account.
By setting your Roolz Account to integrate with social networks, including by signing onto Roolz by using your social network account, you agree to share information (including personal information) between Roolz and such social networks, for the purposes provided under this Privacy Policy. The social network’s use of information made available by Roolz is governed by that social network’s privacy policy and controlled by the social network, not by this Privacy Policy or Roolz.
When you connect to the social network account through the Services for the first time or otherwise make the Services interact with your social network account, you will be asked by the social network to permit the social network to share your personal information stored on such social network with Roolz. We collect your information from your social network account only in accordance with the permissions granted by you (such as your name, email address, list of friends, profile picture and other information available via the applicable social network).
You understand and agree that the Services may access, make available and store such information so that it is available on and through yourRoolz Account, until your Roolz Account is deleted.
Please note that certain information which you have defined as private on your third party social network accounts may become public to other Roolz Users through the Services once you have allowed the social network to share such information with Roolz (for example through your Roolz Business Profile).
Integration with other third party services
Roolz may offer you the option to link Roolz to third party services that may be useful to you (like, freight marketplaces). Where Roolz detects an integration may be available (either because a third party service attempts to link to Roolz, or Roolz detects an installed service on the device which has an integration option, or you request a particular integration), Roolz will ask for confirmation to connect the accounts. If you choose to connect the accounts, Roolz will ask for your permission to share data with the third party service. You should only agree to connect accounts if you are comfortable with the third party service receiving the data set out at the time of connecting the accounts and Roolz is not responsible for the third party service’s use of data. You can disconnect Roolz and the third party service at any time and Roolz will cease sharing data with that service from the point of disconnection onwards.
Controlling your personal information
You can always review and update certain information by visiting your profile and settings (such as your phone, name, photo and more) or the in-app left menu (to update your home, work and favorites).
Your location and route history is associated with your Account.
If you find that the information associated with your Account is not accurate, complete or updated, then you should make all necessary changes to correct it. Please keep in mind that false, incorrect, or outdated information may prevent you from setting up an Account and impair the ability to provide you with Services.
Privacy controls
Your in-app Privacy Settings provide you with quick access to settings and tools that let you safeguard your data and decide how your information can make Roolz services work better for you. For example, you can control your visibility on the map.
There are other ways to control the information Roolz collects whether or not you’re signed in to a Roolz Account, including device-level settings: your device may have controls that determine what information we collect. For example, you can modify location settings on your device.
Deleting your information
If you would like us to delete your Account, please use the “Delete Account” function available on your profile screen or page. On receiving such a request, Roolz will use reasonable efforts to delete such information, however please note that information may not be deleted immediately from our back-up systems. We aim to initiate the deletion process within 120 hours after your request. We then begin a process designed to safely and completely delete the data from our storage systems. This process generally takes around 6 months from the time of deletion. As with any deletion process, things like routine maintenance, unexpected outages, bugs, or failures in our protocols may cause delays in the processes and time frames defined in this policy. We maintain systems designed to detect and remediate such issues.
How Roolz retains data we collect
Some data you can delete whenever you like, some data is deleted automatically, and some data we retain for longer periods of time when necessary. This section describes why we hold onto different types of data for different periods of time.
- Information retained until you remove it - such as your “Home, “work”, favorites, profile picture and other account related information. We’ll keep this data in your Roolz Account until you choose to remove it and/or update it.
- Data that expires after a specific period of time - in some cases, you don’t need to actively delete your information as we set retention timeframes based on the reason for the data’s collection. We may also take steps to anonymize certain data within set timeperiods.
- Information retained until your Roolz Account is deleted - we may keep some data for the life of your Roolz Account if it’s useful for helping us understand how users interact with our features and how we can improve our services. For example, if you made an incident report, we will keep information about how many reports you have submitted, even after the event is removed. When you delete your Roolz Account, the information about how many reports you have submitted is also removed.
- Information retained for extended time periods for limited purposes - sometimes business and legal requirements oblige us to retain certain information, for specific purposes, for an extended period of time. For example, when Roolz processes a payment for you, we’ll retain this data for longer periods of time as required for tax or accounting purposes. Reasons we might retain some data for extended periods of time include:
- Security, fraud & abuse prevention
- Financial record-keeping
- Complying with legal or regulatory requirements
- Ensuring the continuity of our services
- Direct communications with Roolz

- We don’t knowingly collect nor do we show you personalized ads based on sensitive categories, such as race, religion, sexual orientation, or health.

Please note however that other Roolz users are not allowed to use your contact details or our internal messaging account for commercial advertising purposes. It is clarified that we are not responsible for the content of said advertisements and the products delivered or services rendered thereby by third parties and you irrevocably and unconditionally agree that we shall not be held responsible or liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense that you may suffer or incur as a result or in connection thereof.
Information security
Roolz considers information security to be a top priority. Roolz services are built with strong security features that continuously protect your information. Roolz implements systems, applications and procedures to secure your personal information, to minimize the risk of theft, damage, loss of information, or unauthorized access or use of information. For example, we review our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to prevent unauthorized access to our systems. In addition, we restrict access to personal information to Roolz employees, contractors, and agents who need that information in order to process it. Anyone with this access is subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.
The insights we gain from maintaining our services help us detect and automatically block security threats from ever reaching you.
However, these measures are unable to provide absolute assurance. Therefore, although Roolz takes great efforts to protect your personal information, Roolz cannot guarantee and you cannot reasonably expect that Roolz’s databases will be immune from any wrongdoings, malfunctions, unlawful interceptions or access, or other kinds of abuse and misuse.
