Overview
This policy covers Safar: ride-hailing for riders, drivers and fleet operators: safer rides, fairer fares.
It was built by Ahsan Mahmood, a software developer in Lahore, Pakistan. I am responsible for it, and you can reach me at aoneahsan@gmail.com.
Safar is not released. I froze it on October 21, 2026, with my other idea projects, so the products already in production get finished first. It is not being developed or sold now, and these documents change before that does.
What it holds
Sign-in runs on Firebase Authentication, a Google service. It keeps your email address and a sign-in record, and any password you set is held by Firebase, never by me.
If you used a build of Safar, it may hold:
- your name and email address
- pickup and drop-off points and your trips
How it is used
Only to run the part of Safar you were using. Nothing is sold, and nothing goes to anyone outside the services listed below.
Nothing is used for advertising.
Services it uses
| Service | What it receives |
|---|---|
| Google Firebase | Your sign-in record and the data you save, stored in Cloud Firestore. |
| Google Maps | Pickup and drop-off points, to draw the map and the route. |
Each service keeps what it receives under its own privacy policy.
How long it is kept
Until you ask me to delete it, or until I switch the Safar backend off, whichever comes first.
Children
Safar is not meant for children under 13, and I do not knowingly keep anything about them. If you think a child has used it, email me and I will delete what it holds.
Deleting your data
How to ask, what is deleted and what is kept are on the Safar account deletion page.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version goes on this page with a new Last updated date. There is no mailing list, so that date is the notice.
