Last Updated: August 15, 2026

Welcome to Sogeza.

Your privacy and trust are important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how Sogeza collects, uses, shares, stores, and protects personal information when you use our mobile applications, website, customer support services, ride-hailing services, vehicle rental services, delivery services, and related platform features.

This Privacy Policy also explains the choices and rights available to you regarding your personal information.

Sogeza is a technology platform that connects users with drivers, vehicle rental providers, delivery partners, and other independent service providers available through the platform.

Where services are provided by independent drivers, delivery partners, rental providers, or other third-party providers, those providers may operate independently from Sogeza and may be subject to their own legal and privacy obligations.

  • Register as a driver, delivery partner, vehicle provider, or other service provider.

  • Contact Sogeza customer support.

  • Use location, payment, booking, messaging, or other features available through Sogeza.

This Privacy Policy does not govern third-party websites, payment processors, service providers, or other external services that maintain their own privacy policies.
