We do this on the basis that it is necessary to enter into a contract with you, or that it is within the substantial public interest (processing to prevent or detect a crime).
  2. Pricing – we may use information relating to your location and timestamps, the estimated duration and distance of journey related to deliveries of the Meal Orders, the number of concurrent Clients and Couriers using the app and our services within the vicinity, estimated traffic and other related information to determine the estimated duration of journeys related to deliveries.

We may reject the request, as permitted by applicable law, including when providing the information would result in a disclosure of a trade secret or would interfere with the prevention or detection of fraud or other crime. However, generally in these circumstances, our response will be limited to verifying (or requesting an applicable third party to verify) that the algorithm and source data are functioning as anticipated without error or bias.

It is important that you read this Statement, together with any other privacy statement we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you, so that you are aware of how, why we are using such data, your rights regarding your personal data and how to exercise them.

What data is processed in the Go Food App

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about you from which you can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data). The moment you start your shift with us, you are required to activate the Go Food App (hereinafter: “App”). This following data is collected through the Go Food app and stored by us:

Why we process personal data

Whiles using the App, LAC may process your personal data for the following purposes:

1. Shift planning and Human resources

To enable you to work as a Courier, the Go Food app provides you with the option to give up your availability and plan your working shifts. The Go Food app also enables you to contact the LAC Human Resources department for any comments or questions (e.g. to inform us about sickness). The legal ground for this purpose is the performance of our contract with you.

2. Order delivery planning and optimisation

Your live GPS location is used for order delivery and optimisation. This enables us to run our delivery service as effectively as possible and subsequently ensure that orders are allocated to you and you only. Also to ensure that the couriers have to ride the shortest distance possible each time. To enable the order delivery the Go Food App provides a chat function to communicate directly with order dispatchers to discuss possible issues. The legal ground for this purpose is the performance of our contract with you. Your GPS location is processed during your active shift or 30 minutes pre-shift if you actively activate your Go Food app early. As soon as you actively end your shift or start a pause (stop/pause button in the app) your GPS location will no longer be processed. Your GPS location is relayed to us at 15 second intervals. Motion data are processed via the App by default but will not be registered or used by us.

3. Food Tracker

Your live GPS location, together with your first name, is relayed to the customer during the delivery of the order. We call this the Food Tracker. This Food Tracker enables customers to easily check the status of their order, and allows them to identify your live location for the duration of your delivery (with consumers able to track your live location once you have collected their order). The legal ground for this purpose is the legitimate interest of LAC.

4. Support questions

The App allows you to ask support questions related to the App or your job. LAC will use this data to provide you with the necessary support. The legal ground for this purpose is the performance of our contract with you.

5. App Analytics

Personal data that is processed within the app is also used by us for analytical purposes and to improve the app and delivery process. Analytics data will be anonymized as much as possible and will never be used for purposes other than the improvement of the App and processes. The legal basis for this processing of personal data, as defined in the GDPR, is the legitimate interest of LAC unless your consent is necessary according to the applicable law.

6. Performance improvement and evaluation

If you are an employee of LAC or working as a Driver but employed by a third-party employer, LAC will also use your personal data to improve the Driver performance on both a global and individual level. The following data is gained via the Go Food App, Salesforce, Shift planning tool, for this purpose:

7. Usage of Users’ Image Collection

We may collect user’s image by requesting your device’s photo roll or camera in order to for us to upload your media to the App. Any media uploaded in our App, will be collected and stored on our servers. If you wish to change our access or permissions, you may do so in your device’s settings. The user may voluntarily choose to upload their profile pictures in the App because this is not obligatory. The image collection from the user might be shared with our third party with whom we share app user data with equal protection of user data as stated in the app’s privacy policy and by law.

The data gained through the Go Food App together with your employment data will be used for your individual performance evaluation. Your evaluation will always involve the judgement of the HUB- and/or City Coordinators and will never be based solely on the gained data or on automated decisions made based on this data.

Our use of tracking technologies

All of our uses of your data make use of tracking technologies on your device. Mobile users can often refuse tracking or reset their device identifiers (which will reset any prior tracking history) through the settings menus on their device. Please note that if you turn off the tracking settings on your phone, the App will not work properly, and your phone will prompt you to switch the location settings back on. We really need your GPS location to provide you with App’s core services and turning this off means that the App cannot notify you of delivery opportunities, which will impact your ability to make money and may be contrary to the terms of your employment.

We use cookies and other techniques to improve and personalize your experience and ads together with third parties.

Additional purposes

We will only use your personal data for the purposes described above, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we want to use the data for a different purpose, we will take appropriate measures to inform you, consistent with the significance of the changes we make. Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where required by applicable data protection law.

Automated decision-making and profiling

For the purposes described above we may use automated decision-making and profiling. Automated decision-making takes place when an electronic system uses personal information to make a decision without human intervention. In limited circumstances, with your explicit written consent where required by applicable data protection law and where appropriate measures are in place to safeguard your rights, we will use automated decision-making. We for example use automated decision-making to select the orders that will cost you the least amount of time to deliver as a Courier. These automated decisions are always under control of a natural person.

You will not be subject to decisions that will have a significant impact on you based solely on automated decision-making, unless we have a lawful basis for doing so and we have notified you. When such automated decision-making and/or profiling leads to a negative decision about you, and you do not agree with it, you can contact us via our email. We will then proceed to reassess the situation.

How long we store personal data for

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you.

If you have any questions on the way we retain your personal data you can contact us via Email (info@lacgloballimited.com).

Sharing with customers and restaurants

When using the Go Food App during the delivery of an order, both the restaurant and the customer will be able to see your first name and your location while you are on delivery. Your personal data will only be shared with the customer and restaurant during the delivery of the order and will no longer be available once the order has been delivered.

We use cookies and other techniques to improve and personalize your experience and ads together with third parties.

Sharing with others

We will only disclose your personal data to third parties if necessary for the purposes described above. In addition, we may also disclose your data to law enforcement agencies, competent government authorities and other third parties where we believe we are required to do so by applicable law or regulation (including a court order), or where we believe disclosure is necessary to exercise, establish or defend legal rights or to protect the vital interests of any person. We may also disclose your data to any company or prospective buyer of all or substantially all of our assets in connection with any potential sale, restructuring or transfer of those assets.

Your personal data may be shared with the following parties:

  1. LAC’s affiliates, subsidiaries and/or group companies of LAC
  2. Software providers
  3. Implementation partners
  4. Professional advisors
  5. Law enforcement, regulatory bodies and/or government agencies

This may include transferring it to or accessing it from other jurisdictions, including jurisdictions that may not provide a level of protection equivalent to the EU data protection laws. Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA we will take into account any applicable statutory obligations relevant to personal data transfers and, where there is no European Commission (EC) adequacy decision in place, we will rely on appropriate safeguards, including EC approved standard contractual clauses.
