All capitalised terms but undefined terms used herein shall bear the same meaning as those defined in the Terms of Use and Grab’s Privacy Notice
This Addendum forms part of the Grab Privacy Notice. In the event of any inconsistency between the Grab Privacy Notice and this Addendum, this Addendum shall prevail.
Grab for Business is provided as an add-on feature for organisations (“Client”) to facilitate corporate billing for itsAuthorised Users’ (e.g. employees) use of Grab’s Services in the course of work.
When a Client chooses to utilise Grab for Business, the Authorised User is given the option of tagging his/her rides or other transactions to the Client or to tag it as a personal ride. As part of this feature, Grab will disclose detailed trip and booking information that Authorised Users have tagged as being for business purposes to the Client. Apart from this, Grab does not disclose other Personal Data of Authorised Users to the Client.
Alternatively, an individual user may choose to set up a business profile within the App to facilitate the tagging of business-related rides and to generate consolidated trip reports to facilitate the submission of claims from his or her employer. When used in this mode, the claims process is user-driven and the user’s employer need not be a Client.
For ease of reference, Authorised Users and individual users will each be referred to as a “User” and collectively as “Users” in this Addendum.
In respect of any User and the processing of their Personal Data , Grab acts as a data controller. For further information on how Grab collects, uses and discloses Users’ Personal Data, please refer to the Grab Privacy Notice.
Due to the way Grab for Business works, Grab does not process any Personal Data for and on behalf of the Client. Accordingly, Grab is not the data processor of the Client, but an independent data controller in respect of all Personal Data that it processes in the course of providing the Grab for Business feature. Likewise, the Client is an independent data controller of the Personal Datathat it discloses to and/or receives from Grab.
As independent controllers, Grab and the Client individually determine the purposes and means of processing Personal Data, subject to the provisions set out in the Terms of Use and this Privacy Notice. Grab and the Client are also individually responsible to ensure the protection of Personal Data under their charge.
In order to provide the Grab for Business feature, the User or the Client will be required to provide the following information about the User to Grab:
Grab will use this information for the purposes of:
Upon onboarding aUser to the App, Grab will process the Personal Data of the User in accordance with the Grab Privacy Notice and this Addendum.
Grab will disclose relevant trip and booking information as determined by Grab from time to time to the Client to facilitate Corporate Billing.
Depending on the business profile settings selected by the individual user, the user may retrieve and generate reports containing his/her relevant trip and booking information.
The Client and Grab shall each:
