Orders can be placed online via our website, by e-mail, by phone, or by SMS. The agreement on the basis of which the provision of services to the Customer is realized arises on the basis of a binding order confirmation. The binding confirmation is a confirmation by SMS for phone and SMS order, and an e-mail confirmation for orders created through the web page and via e-mail. An acknowledgment of receipt of an order in the system is not considered binding unless it is confirmed by the Company, where the Customer is at the same time advised that the Company’s services can only be used under these Terms.

Payment options
Cash

Payments in cash in foreign currency are based on the current exchange rate of the Czech crown on the day of the pickup, determined by the Company, not on the rate that was current on the day of booking.
Credit card
If the Customer pays by a debit or credit card online, it is possible to make payments in the following currencies – CZK, EUR, GBP and USD. If the Customer pays directly to the driver or Company representative, it is possible to make a payment only in CZK and only by cards whose logos are displayed on the Company’s website. If the Customer pays online in advance, the driver or a representative of the Company is informed of the payment; it is not necessary to print a payment receipt.
Bank transfer
Payment by bank transfer (by invoice) is only possible upon request or when the Company has allowed this payment option exclusively in the case of the particular Customer. The Company may require payment of an advance before the order is executed, otherwise it is entitled to cancel the order. Invoices can only be issued in the following currencies – CZK, EUR, USD or GBP. For invoices issued to foreign Customers where the transport price is less than CZK 5 000, the Company is entitled to charge a handling fee of CZK 200 for receiving a foreign payment.
For payments made directly to the driver (by credit card or in cash), the driver will issue a receipt on the day of pickup to the Customer (usually a simplified tax document). For payments made online via the Company’s website, the Customer will be sent a receipt for the ordered service. The final tax invoice for the online deposit is issued by the Company upon request. If the Customer pays for an invoice (bank transfer), the invoice is issued by the Company and the price includes VAT. If the document is issued directly by the contractual driver, the tax document may or may not include VAT, depending on whether or not the driver is a registered VAT payer. All listed prices are final and include VAT.
If the reservation consists of the return ticker, or more transports, the Customer can pay the total sum at once, or pay each way seperately. The driver will issue a voucher/confirmation of payment with the exact sum. If both ways were paid in full in advance, the customer shall submit the voucher/confirmation to the driver.
Change of reservation and cancellation conditions
Usual transport
If a Customer wishes to change or cancel his reservation for any reason, he may do so through the Company’s website – www.czechdrivers.cz, by email or by telephone before leaving – at least two hours before the pickup time. If the Customer has already paid for the pickup and cancelled the ride in the required time, the Company will return the money to him or the service will not be invoiced.
If the Customer fails to cancel the service in a timely manner, the prepaid advance or the amount for the execution of the transport is considered to be the amount of the contractual penalty that compensates the Company with the damage caused by the late cancellation.
Transport with pickup outside of Prague
Changes and cancellations of transfers that have a designated pickup spot outside of Prague are subject to different cancellation conditions. Cancellations must be made at least 1 hour before the scheduled pickup time, otherwise the Company will charge a 100% cancellation fee as a flat-rate compensation in the form of a contractual penalty paid by the Customer. The reason for applying a 100% cancellation (contractual penalty) is to cover all the costs of the ordered and non-shipped transportation from the Company.
Refunds
If the Customer cancels a prepaid online service and is entitled to a refund, the money will be automatically returned to the card (or account) that was used to pay the order. All claims to refund must be placed withing 14 days in letter, or with e-mail, delivered to the registered adress, or e-mail adress

With drivers’ consent, CzechDrivers processes and uses GPS tracking or location data (i.e. longitude, latitude, speed, accuracy). Drivers must first agree to this on their mobile device using the confirmation field or the system settings in Android or iOS ("Allow"). Drivers’ position is then determined using the GPS data from the CzechDrivers App (hereinafter “location data”) as soon as the drivers starts a journey (i.e. as soon as he presses the button "On the way to Pick up Location" in the CzechDrivers App) and ends once the driver presses the button "Finish Ride" in the CzechDrivers App. Purposes of processing are the execution of the contractual relationship (planning, disposition, arrangement, execution, accounting for and payment of transportation), to monitor the performance of the ride, to increase the quality of rides, to support CzechDrivers, the driver and the customer in case of questions or problems, the design and improvement of CzechDrivers services, the detection, limitation and elimination of faults, errors or problems of a technical or process-related nature and the prevention or detection of illegal use (otherwise see Section 6 above). Location data may be passed on to the current end customer of the driver to facilitate and enhance the meeting with the driver or for accounting and payment purposes. Otherwise, location data will not be transmitted to third parties, unless it is a CzechDrivers contractor (see Art. 28 GDPR) or otherwise legally permitted. Location data is processed safely and stored on encrypted media. Location data is not permanently linked to the drivers’ profile but stored separately. It can only be accessed according to a separate authorization concept, which allows only a limited group of people access for a limited time. Evaluations are otherwise carried out pseudo- or anonymized. Profiling (Art. 4 Paragraph 4 GDPR) using location data does not take place. Location data is not stored for more than 2 years and then deleted or anonymized.
The legal bases of the processing of location data by CzechDrivers are Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit a GDPR (consent) and Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit b GDPR (contract performance and contract initiation). The described tracking of location data is necessary, so the driver can use a navigation app at the same time whilst using the GPS tracking on the CzechDrivers App. Rides can only be performed when GPS tracking is active and switched on for the CzechDrivers App. The driver can withdraw his consent to GPS tracking at any time by changing the device settings for the CzechDrivers App. Such withdrawal of consent will not affect the processing of drivers’ location data tracked before driver’s withdrawal. The driver can also withdraw his consent to further use of his location data at any time by sending us a message to that effect (communication channels see Sections 2 and 3 above). Such withdrawal of consent will not affect the processing of drivers’ location data before driver’s withdrawal.
Data Erasure and storage period
We will delete your personal data as soon as the legal basis for its processing no longer applies. In some cases, however, other legal bases can also apply, for example if processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation of CzechDrivers (e.g. in accordance with commercial or tax law).
