Yodel Driver & Courier Cookie Policy

We, Yodel Delivery Network Limited ("Yodel", "we", "us") use certain technologies on our mobile applications (the "Apps") to collect, stores and access information about your device and your use of the Apps. Information about how we use your personal information is available in the Apps Privacy Policy

The purpose of this Policy is to provide you with information about the use of these technologies in connection with the Apps.

For some of these technologies, where they are considered non-essential to the functioning of the Apps, we will require your consent before we can use the information stored and accessed by the technologies. In particular, we request your consent to conduct analytics regarding your use of these Apps. This will be requested from you when you first download the Apps.

Please note that if you refuse or later withdraw your consent to allow us to use these technologies, this may result in you being unable to access the Apps, and therefore unable to provide and be paid for services supplied to Yodel.

We use the following technologies which store and access information about your use of the Apps and your device:

• Strictly necessary: Some of the technologies we use are strictly necessary for the operation of the Apps. These include technologies which allow you to login to secure areas of the Apps. We do not require your express consent to use these technologies.

• Performance / Analytics: These non-essential cookies allow us to recognise you as a user and how you move around the Apps when you are using it. This helps us to improve the way the Apps works, for example, by helping us identify:

• design flaws in the Apps;

• where additional guidance and end-user demonstration of the Apps may be required;

• common causes for Apps faults;

• where the Apps are not performing as expected (in terms of user experience); and

• how we can continue to improve the functionality and efficiency of the Apps.

You can find more information about the individual technologies we use and the purposes for which we use them below:

AsyncStorage - Async storage is used to store data on the YDAC mobile application database. The data being stored includes tour data for supporting working offline and all messages that are pending to be sent to the backend application (tracking event data). For more information see - https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/asyncstorage

· React Native Geolocation is a third-party library to allow the YDAC App to detect location in a battery efficient way. The data is stored within the App and is critical to the capture of location in the provision of services to us. No data is transmitted to the library provider. For more information see - https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation/blob/master/help/PRIVACY_POLICY.md and https://github.com/transistorsoft/react-native-background-geolocation/wiki/Philosophy-of-Operation
