8. Safety Policy for Car Owners
A Driver Hire recognizes the importance of safeguarding the interests of car owners who list their vehicles on the platform. The following safety measures are implemented to the extent commercially and legally feasible.
All renters are subject to identity verification and screening procedures before being permitted to book a vehicle. Vehicle usage details, booking duration, and renter information are recorded for accountability and traceability.
A Driver Hire encourages car owners to ensure that their vehicles are adequately insured and roadworthy before listing. Where applicable, the Company may facilitate access to insurance or protection programs through third-party partners; however, A Driver Hire itself does not act as an insurer unless expressly stated.
Security deposits, where applicable, are collected to mitigate risks relating to damage, misuse, or contractual breaches. In case of disputes, A Driver Hire may assist with documentation, transaction records, and communication between parties, though final liability shall be governed by the booking terms and applicable law.
A Driver Hire reserves the right to suspend or terminate users, including renters, in cases of misuse, fraudulent activity, safety violations, or breach of platform policies, in order to protect car owners and the integrity of the platform.
9. Limitation of Liability
A Driver Hire acts as a technology and facilitation platform and does not guarantee the conduct of users. Liability, if any, shall be limited in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions, contractual agreements, and governing law.
