2. Use of Services
2.1. Ride Bookings: Our Services enable you to request rides from independent drivers who are registered with us. By requesting a ride, you agree to be matched with a driver and abide by the driver's terms and conditions.
2.2. User Conduct: You agree to use our Services responsibly and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. You will not engage in any unlawful, fraudulent, or abusive conduct while using our Services. Any violation of these Terms may result in the suspension or termination of your access to the Services.

3. Pricing and Payments
3.1. Fare Calculation: The fares for rides booked through our Services are calculated based on various factors, including distance, time, and additional charges. We strive to provide transparent fare information, but actual fares may vary depending on factors such as traffic conditions and driver availability.
3.2. Payment: You agree to pay the fare and any additional charges incurred for the services provided by the driver. Payment may be made through the payment methods available in our Services. We may use third-party payment processors to facilitate transactions, and your use of such processors is subject to their terms and conditions.
4. Data Collection
4.1. How we collect location data (Driver): We collect precise or approximate location data from driver’s device when the Kabukabu app is running in the background (when the app is open but not on-screen) or foreground (when the app is open and on-screen).
4.2. How we collect location data (Riders). We collect precise or approximate location information from the rider's device if they enable the app to do so via their device settings.
4.3. We collect such data from the time a ride is requested until the end of the trip, and any time the app is running in the foreground (when the app is open and on-screen).
4.4. Riders can choose to use the Kabukabu app without enabling location data collection from their mobile devices. However, this may affect certain features in the app. I.e, a rider who has not enabled precise location data will have to manually enter their pickup location.
4.5. Precise location data collected from a driver’s device during a trip is linked to the rider’s account, even if the rider has not enabled precise location data to be collected from their device. This data is used for purposes such as receipt generation, customer support, fraud detection, insurance, and litigation.
