Privacy Policy
Last Updated: December 3, 2025
Kind Ride Share is an online rideshare matching service that allows users to post available rides or request rides. This platform is not a transportation company and do not operate or manage any rides. It provide a bulletin-board-style platform using the latest open source mapping technologies for users to connect, communicate, and coordinate travel independently.
I collect the basic information necessary to operate the platform, including:
Users who opt in to the Commuter Passport program may voluntarily submit additional personal information for verification and trust-building within the community. This information may include:
Commuter Passport details are securely stored and encrypted. Only the user controls whether to share their Passport with others on the platform. It functions similarly to a "verified user" badge on other services.
Your information is used solely for the functioning of the rideshare-matching platform. This includes:
I never sell or share your information with third parties.
All personal information stored on the Kind Ride Share servers is encrypted. Only registered platform members may view ride details, and only Passport participants may choose to share their verification data. No one else has access to this information unless the user chooses to share it.
Users are solely responsible for their own safety when coordinating or participating in rides. Kind Ride Share does not verify identities, driving history, or safety backgrounds. Users should take all reasonable steps to protect themselves and make informed decisions.
The platform assumes no liability for user interactions, rides, or outcomes of any arrangements made through the service.
When a user deletes their account, the following policies apply:
Kind Ride Share uses only essential cookies for login sessions, fraud prevention, and security. I do not use advertising cookies, behavioral tracking, or third-party analytics tools.
Kind Ride Share does not sell, rent, or disclose your personal information to any third parties. Information may only be disclosed if legally required, such as through a court order.
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. All updates will be posted to this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
