We may need to contact you by e-mail or telephone for administrative purposes, such as confirming your bookings and payments, notifying you in regard to your reservation, handling requests you have submitted for services not received and generally speaking, handling your complaints.

To let you know about our news and offers. Once you have consented to this, we will send you promotional messages about our rental services, updates and the offers of Ryde Rentals, sometimes tailored to your preferences and interests, if you have chosen to do so, so that we may improve your customer experience.
