Who processes your data

Your employer (the “Data Fiduciary”) uses Namma Payaṇa to run its commute programme. The platform operator processes data on your employer’s behalf.

What we collect and why

  • Identity & contact — name, work email, mobile, gender: to verify you are an employee and to offer women-only rides.
  • KYC documents — corporate ID, driving licence, RC, insurance: to verify drivers and vehicles. Files are private; document numbers are encrypted.
  • Locations — home area and office: to match you with colleagues on your route. Live location is used only during an active ride or SOS.
  • Emergency contacts — used only when you trigger an SOS: they receive an SMS / WhatsApp with a live-location link if your security desk does not respond in time.
  • Trip recordings & ride chat — GPS points of trips in progress and messages between the driver and confirmed riders, visible to them and to your company’s security desk, deleted automatically after 90 days.
  • Ride money — fares, how they were paid (UPI, online or salary), payouts and your UPI ID, kept in an accounting ledger for statutory record-keeping. Card and bank details are handled by Razorpay and never stored by Namma Payaṇa.
  • Share-trip links — show only first names, the vehicle and its position, need no sign-in, and stop working 30 minutes after the trip or when you revoke them. Phone numbers are never shown; calls go through a masked number where available.
  • Activity logs — sign-ins and admin actions, kept for security and audit.
