Peg City Car Co-op is an independent organization. We do not share member information automatically with other organizations with which we are affiliated. Members (and potential members) can opt-out of providing certain information.

We do not collect personal information without your consent.

- Disclosure of Personal Information
Peg City may disclose your personal information to:
- Its employees, partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, distributors, retailers and service providers as necessary to perform a business, professional, or technical support function for Peg City;
- Fulfill the purpose for which you provided the information or any purpose for which you have given consent;

- As necessary when we believe your behaviour violates any Peg City policies applicable to you or your use of the Service;
- To the other drivers on a shared account. Where a member account includes additional drivers, all drivers agree to share a single bill on the member account, which means all drivers will have access to the information included in the invoice, such as the number of Trips, distance traveled, duration of Trips, location of the pick-up, the type of Peg City Vehicle reserved, and the total cost, including any fines or penalties incurred (If you do not wish to share this information, you must obtain your own account);
- To enforce an agreement we may have with you, including to collect payments, or deal with any Proceedings; or
- If we believe the disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property or safety of Peg City, our customers, or others.
Corporate Reorganization and Business Transfers
Peg City may disclose your personal information during corporate transactions, like reorganizations, mergers, amalgamations with another entity, a sale of all or a substantial portion of our assets or shares, or financing activities. This includes sharing data during due diligence for these transactions. Any such disclosure will comply with applicable privacy law, including requirements to enter into agreements to protect your personal information.
Consent
The consent required can be express or implied, depending on the circumstances, but there are also some circumstances where the law allows or requires us to collect, use, or disclose your personal information without your knowledge or consent (e.g. to collect a debt you owe us). We will only process your personal information without your knowledge or consent where this is permitted or required by law.
You can withdraw your consent to the collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information by Peg City at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. Please note that if you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of the Service. Please contact our Privacy Officer using the information in Section 18 to withdraw your consent or for more information about how doing so may affect your access to the Service.
Change of Purpose
Peg City will only use your personal information for the purposes for which it was originally collected, unless required or permitted by law, or where the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose (based on factors like the relationship between the purposes and your reasonable expectations).
If the new purpose is unrelated, we’ll notify you and get consent where required (See Section 21 for more information).
Children
The Service is intended for general audiences and is not directed at any one under the age of fifteen (15) unless they are an emancipated minor or otherwise capable of providing consent. We do not knowingly collect personal information from such individuals, or from any other individual incapable of providing consent on their own behalf, without the consent of that individual’s parent, legal guardian, attorney under a valid power of attorney, or other person capable of consenting on behalf of the individual. If we learn that we have collected personal information from such an individual without appropriate consent, we will delete that personal information. If you think such an individual has provided us with personal information, please contact us as provided in Section 18.
Safeguarding Your Personal Information
Peg City is committed to safeguarding your personal information through a combination of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect against risks such as loss or theft, unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, destruction, or any other unlawful processing. The methods of protection and safeguards used by Peg City include, but are not limited to:
- Administrative safeguards such as privacy and security policies and procedures, privacy and data protection training for Peg City employees;
- Technical safeguards such as annual security reviews, security testing, and technological measures, including the use of passwords, encryption, firewalls, and secure coding frameworks; and
- Physical safeguards such as locked filing cabinets, and need-to-know access for Peg City employees, partners, subsidiaries, affiliates and service providers.
While we have implemented these measures to reduce the risk of a privacy breach, we cannot guarantee absolute security. The nature of digital systems and internet communications means that it is possible our safeguards may be breached by third parties. The risks that come from a breach can include financial loss, identity theft, reputational harm, damage to relationships, and loss of employment or business opportunities, among other things. The more sensitive the personal information, the more significant the possible harm. You are providing your personal information at your own risk.
Cross-Border Transfer of Personal Information
Subject to any agreement to the contrary, your personal information may be stored and processed in any province or country where our third-party service providers operate (e.g. Canada, United States). Your personal information is subject to the laws of that jurisdiction, which may allow access by their governments, courts, law enforcement, or regulatory agencies. For example, personal information stored in the United States is subject to the USA PATRIOT ACT.
Peg City has measures in place to protect your personal information during cross-border transfers in accordance with data protection laws, like contractual safeguards stipulating the confidentiality of the information and the purposes for which it is to be used.
Retention of Personal Information
To determine the appropriate retention period for your information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your information, the purposes for which we process your information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
With some exceptions, Peg City will keep your personal information for the duration of your business relationship with us, plus a 36-month retention period. If your relationship with us never passes the registration request page, either because your registration wasn’t completed or you didn’t meet the eligibility criteria, the personal information you provided to us will be kept for a period of 36 months from the latter of its collection or our last contact with you.
This retention period was chosen to ensure that we have access to necessary information and can respond if any issues are brought to our attention after our relationship has terminated, but there may be times when we need to keep your personal information beyond this timeframe. For example, we may need to keep your personal information longer than these time periods if there is an ongoing Proceeding (defined below). In that case, we would keep the required personal information for a period of 36 months after the Proceeding is completed (including all potential appeals). We also have certain legal and regulatory obligations, like tax reporting, that require us to keep some of your personal information for specific time periods. Finally, if we need to enforce a ban, we will keep the necessary information to do so for as long as required.
In all cases, we only keep your personal information longer than our retention periods if there is a legitimate reason to do so, and only for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and/or communicated to you. Please see the chart below for a breakdown of how long your personal information is retained based on the kind of data it is and its purpose.
Once the applicable retention periods have passed, personal information is either:
- Destroyed;
- Anonymized; or
- In the case of information that needs to be kept to meet our legal and regulatory obligations, it will be removed from the database accessible through our usual transactional tools (the “Standard Database”) for an intermediate archival period.
Category | Retention Period |
Personal information collected at registration | If the registration is never completed:The personal information is kept for a maximum of 36 months from the latter of its collection or our last contact with you, unless there is a legitimate reason for keeping a record of the registration, for example, if we reject your application because of some suspicious circumstances. In that case, we retain your driver’s licence number in an encrypted form as an identifier, and only the notes and attached documents necessary to justify the rejection and retention of some personal information are kept. All other data is deleted.If the registration is approved: Generally, your personal information is kept the duration of your subscription and for 36 months after the effective date of the termination of your subscription, or after the conclusion of any proceedings, if applicable (i.e. unresolved dispute, recovery, case of fraud, insurance monitoring, other legal procedures, including any appeals of decisions etc.) (“Proceedings”), whichever is later. After the 36-month period, the following personal information is deleted from the Standard Database: the photos of your driver’s licence, the selfie-type photo of you holding your driver’s licence with the photo side up to your face, your name, email address, phone number, residential address (except postal code), information relating to the person to contact in case of emergency, the number of your public transport card if you used one, any payment information in our possession (though please recall that we do not collect your credit or debit card information. Processing of your payments is handled by a third party).Your driver’s licence number is encrypted and kept in the Standard Database after the 36-month period to serve as an identifier.Although deleted from the Standard Database, the following personal information is kept in a separate, secure environment accessible to a limited number of people for an intermediate archiving period required by law in order for us to meet certain legal obligations, like tax reporting and retaining proof of transactions: customer number, first and last name, residential address, and email address. |
Booking notes (notes written by you) | Personal information is kept for a maximum of 36 months from the effective date of the termination of your subscription or after the termination of any Proceedings, if applicable, whichever is later. |
Notes in your customer file (notes entered by our employees) | Personal information is kept for a maximum of 36 months from the effective date of the termination of your subscription or after the termination of any Proceedings, if applicable, whichever is later, unless there is a legitimate reason for keeping certain information beyond the 36-month period. For example, if you violated our policies and were banned, we may need to keep certain information to enforce that ban. If we need to keep information past the 36-month period, we retain your driver’s licence number in an encrypted form as an identifier, and only the notes and attached documents relevant to the situation and necessary to justify the retention of some personal information. All other data is deleted. |
Booking history and billing history | Subject to legal and regulatory obligations, personal information is kept for a maximum of 36 months from the effective date of the termination of your subscription or after the termination of any Proceedings, if applicable, whichever is later.As discussed above, we may need to retain some of this information to meet certain legal obligations. In that case, the information we need to keep is moved from our Standard Database into a separate, secure environment accessible to a limited number of people and kept until we’ve fulfilled our obligations. During that time, your driver’s licence number is encrypted and kept in the Standard Database after the 36-month period to serve as an identifier. |
GPS tracking of trip-related events | This information is kept in an identifiable format for a maximum of 36 months after the end of the Trip for operational purposes, after which it is anonymized and can no longer be linked to you. |
Call recording | Recordings are kept for a maximum of 36 months after the call or the termination of any Proceedings, if applicable, whichever is later. |
Contents of exchanges with Peg City that took place via email | Personal information is kept for a maximum period of 5 years from the end of the year in which we received the email from you, unless there is some legitimate reason to keep it beyond this period. For example, if the email is relevant to an ongoing Proceeding, it will be retained for a period of 36 months after the termination of Proceedings. |
Solicitations and promotional operations, sending of offers | Personal information is anonymized after a maximum period of 36 months from the end of the relevant campaign. |
Non-Personal Information
Peg City may collect or create non-personal information, including by anonymizing your personal information or aggregating data collected from you with other data in a way that no longer personally identifies you. We don’t try to link this non-personal information with the identity of individuals. Non-personal information, including anonymized and/or aggregated data, is not personal information and is not subject to this Privacy Policy. We may permanently archive non-personal information for future use in any manner whatsoever.
Accuracy of Personal Information
Peg City is committed to keeping your personal information as complete, up-to-date, and accurate as necessary for its intended purposes. Upon request and to the extent required under applicable law, Peg City will promptly correct or complete any inaccurate or incomplete personal information. Where appropriate, we’ll send the updated information to third parties that have access to the personal information in question.
You can request an update or correction of your personal information by contacting our Privacy Officer using the information in Section 18.
Access to Personal Information
You have the right to access your personal information and understand how it has been used and disclosed by Peg City, subject to certain exceptions.
Upon request, and to the extent required by law, we will:
- Provide you with access to your personal information (subject to the below) to review its accuracy; and
- Provide you with information about how your personal information has been used and disclosed, including the source of that information if possible. If providing a specific list of disclosures is not reasonably possible, we will provide a list of organizations to which your personal information may have been disclosed.
Sometimes, we may be prevented from providing you with access to some or all of your personal information. Applicable law sets out these exceptions to access. If that’s the case, we’ll explain our reasoning. Some examples of when we may deny access include:
- If giving you access could reveal personal information about another individual that can’t be severed, or the information could threaten the life or safety of another individual;
- If doing so would reveal any of our confidential information;
- If the information is protected by solicitor-client privilege;
- If the information was generated during a formal dispute resolution process; or
- If the information was collected during an investigation of a breach of an agreement or law, or relates to such an investigation.
To request access to your personal information, contact our Privacy Officer using the information in Section 18.
