Overview

How Zeli treats personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how Zeli collects, uses, stores, and shares information when people use the Zeli rides and delivery platform, including customer accounts, driver accounts, courier tools, merchant tools, dispatch tools, and related websites or mobile experiences.

The controller of that information is Shekhinah Tours B.V., trading as Zeli, KvK 13605, registered office Kaya Grandi 11D, Kralendijk, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands. Zeli operates in the Caribbean Netherlands and handles personal data in line with the Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens BES.

Zeli is designed for transportation and delivery operations in Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands. Because the service depends on live booking, dispatch, payments, safety, and delivery coordination, some personal information is necessary for the platform to work properly.

You must be at least 18 to hold a Zeli account, and Zeli does not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has created an account, contact Zeli and it will be removed.

02

Information we collect

The data needed to operate rides and delivery.

Account and contact details

Name, email address, phone or WhatsApp number, password credentials, customer profile details, and communication preferences.

Location information

Pickup and drop-off locations, delivery addresses, saved addresses, map pins, route information, and live driver or courier location when needed to complete trips or orders.

Ride and order records

Trip requests, assigned driver or courier, merchant details, cart items, delivery instructions, order status, timing, fares, fees, tips, cancellations, reviews, and support notes.

Driver and merchant information

Application details, vehicle information, documents, wallet and payout records, delivery availability, merchant profile details, menu information, and operational settings.

Payment and billing information

Transaction references, fare amounts, platform fees, delivery fees, tips, commission records, subscription status, payout records, and payment processor confirmations. Zeli does not intentionally store full card numbers.

Device and technical information

Browser or device type, app session information, IP address, approximate device identifiers, diagnostics, logs, and security events.

Notifications

If you allow notifications, Zeli stores the push token your device issues so it can tell you when a driver is assigned, an order is ready, or a delivery arrives. You can withdraw this at any time in your device settings.

Storage on your device

Zeli stores a small amount of data in your browser or app to keep you signed in and to remember choices such as your language. It is not used for advertising, and Zeli does not sell personal information or run third-party ad tracking.

03

How we use information

Why the platform needs this data.

Zeli uses information to create accounts, process bookings, calculate routes and fares, assign drivers or couriers, show live tracking, process payments, support customers, manage driver earnings, operate delivery orders, improve dispatch, prevent abuse, and maintain platform security.

Location information is used to show pickup and drop-off points, guide drivers and couriers, help dispatchers assign jobs, estimate arrival times, and improve map results. For couriers or drivers, location may be collected while they are on duty so customers and dispatch can follow active jobs.

04

Sharing

Who may receive information.

Drivers and couriers

Receive the pickup, drop-off, delivery, customer contact, route, and job details needed to complete an accepted ride or order.

Restaurants and merchants

Receive order details, customer instructions, and operational information required to prepare and hand off delivery orders.

Dispatch and support

Can access trip, order, account, driver, courier, merchant, and payment records when needed to operate or support the service.

Service providers

Zeli relies on a small number of named processors: Supabase (database, sign-in and file storage), Vercel (website and app hosting, plus anonymous performance analytics), Stripe (card payments), Resend (transactional email), Mapbox (maps, address search and routing), and Apple and Google (delivery of push notifications). Each processes information only to provide its part of the service.

Where your data is stored

Zeli’s database and hosting are located in the United States, and the processors above may also handle data outside the Caribbean Netherlands. Personal information is therefore transferred internationally, protected by the contractual and security terms Zeli has with each provider.

Legal and safety

Information may be disclosed where required by law or a valid request from a competent authority, or where reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, protect someone’s safety, or establish or defend a legal claim.

05

Retention and rights

Storage, access, correction, and deletion.

Zeli keeps information for as long as reasonably needed to provide the service, comply with operational and legal obligations, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, maintain accounting records, and improve platform reliability.

Customers can delete their account in Zeli from Profile → Personal info → Delete account & data. The flow removes account access, profile and contact details, saved places, notification subscriptions, promotions, and customer wallet data, and de-identifies completed service records. If a customer cannot sign in, the public Delete Account page explains how to submit a verified request.

Some de-identified or limited payment, accounting, safety, fraud-prevention, dispute, tax, or legal records may be retained where reasonably necessary or required. Invoicing and payment records are kept for seven years for tax and accounting purposes. A driver may use the same identity for customer and driver features; when a driver profile is connected, customer self-service deletion is blocked and the driver must contact the Zeli team. Driver, courier, merchant, and employee records require support review because they can include earnings, payouts, documents, vehicles, compliance, and business obligations.

You can ask Zeli for a copy of the personal information it holds about you, ask for it to be corrected if it is wrong, ask for it to be deleted, or object to a particular use. Write to support@zeli-bonaire.com from the address on your account and Zeli will respond within one month. Zeli may need to confirm your identity first, and may keep the limited records listed above where it is required to.

06

Security

Protecting the platform.

Zeli uses technical and organizational safeguards intended to protect user information. No digital service can guarantee absolute security, but Zeli works to limit access, protect credentials, and monitor operational systems for reliability and misuse.

Users are responsible for keeping account passwords secure and for contacting Zeli promptly if they believe their account has been accessed without permission.

07

Contact

Questions about privacy.

For privacy questions or account requests, contact Shekhinah Tours B.V. (Zeli), KvK 13605, at support@zeli-bonaire.com, through the in-app support form, or on WhatsApp at +599 787 7999. Postal address: Kaya Grandi 11D, Kralendijk, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands.

This policy may be updated as the platform, legal requirements, or operational practices change. Any change is reflected in the “last updated” date at the top of this page, and the latest version is always posted here.
