Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

This policy explains what personal data CourierAssist ("we", "us") collects from shippers and drivers who use our platform, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have over it under UK GDPR.

What data we collect

  • Identity and contact details — your name, email address, and phone number.
  • Location data — pickup and drop-off addresses for every job, and, for drivers, live GPS location while a delivery is in progress so shippers can track it.
  • Payment information — card details are collected and processed directly by our payment processor, Stripe; we never see or store full card numbers ourselves.

How we use it

We use your data to:

  • Match shippers with nearby, available drivers and dispatch jobs.
  • Process payments, commission, and weekly driver payouts.
  • Send transactional communications — job offers, status updates, receipts, and account notices.
  • Maintain the security and integrity of the platform.

Who we share it with

We share data with a small number of service providers who process it on our behalf, strictly to operate the platform:

  • Stripe — to process card payments and driver payouts.
  • Supabase — our database, authentication, and file storage provider.
  • Resend — to deliver transactional emails.

We do not sell your personal data, and we only share what each provider needs to perform its function.

Your GDPR rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Erasure — ask us to delete your data, subject to legal and accounting retention requirements.
  • Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@courierassist.co.uk.

Data retention

We retain account and job data for up to 2 years after your last activity on the platform, after which it is deleted or anonymised, except where we're required to keep it longer for legal, tax, or accounting purposes.
