Privacy Policy
Last updated: 17 July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what information Spinoto collects when you book a doorstep mechanic visit, how that information is used to dispatch and complete your service, and the choices you have over your data.
1. Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Aeromechx Automotive Private Limited, operating under the brand name "Spinoto" ("Spinoto", "we", "us", or "our"), collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the Spinoto website, mobile app, and related booking services (together, the "Platform").
This policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions. By using the Platform, you agree to the collection and use of information as described here.
2. Information we collect
- Account details: name, phone number, email address, and password or login credentials.
- Booking details: vehicle type and issue description, service address, preferred time, and any photos or notes you choose to share about the problem.
- Location data: your live or entered location when booking, so we can match you with the nearest available mechanic and provide arrival tracking.
- Payment information: transaction records for bookings, packages, and subscriptions. Card and UPI details are processed directly by our payment gateway partners — Spinoto does not store full card numbers.
- Support communications: messages sent through in-app support, email, or WhatsApp support, including booking-related context shared during those conversations.
- Usage information: basic technical data such as device type, app version, and pages visited, used to keep the Platform working reliably.
3. How we use your information
- To match your booking with the nearest available verified mechanic and dispatch them to your location.
- To show accurate pricing, process payments, and manage packages or subscriptions.
- To communicate booking confirmations, arrival updates, and support responses.
- To verify mechanic partners and investigate safety, fraud, or misuse reports.
- To improve the reliability, coverage, and usability of the Platform over time.
- To meet legal, tax, and regulatory record-keeping obligations.
4. Who we share information with
When you book a service, we share the details necessary to complete that job — your name, contact number, service address, and issue description — with the mechanic partner or workshop assigned to your booking.
We also share information with service providers who help us run the Platform, such as payment gateways for processing transactions and communication providers (including WhatsApp) for delivering support messages you initiate.
Spinoto does not sell your personal information to third parties for advertising purposes. We may disclose information where required by law, to protect the safety of customers or mechanics, or in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition.
5. Location data
Location data is used specifically to find nearby mechanics, estimate arrival times, and allow you to track an assigned mechanic during an active booking. You can control location permissions through your device settings; note that declining location access may limit Spinoto's ability to dispatch a mechanic to you accurately.
6. Cookies and similar technology
The Spinoto website uses limited, functional cookies or local storage — for example, to remember basic display preferences — necessary for the site to work as expected. We do not currently use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. If this changes, this policy will be updated to reflect it.
7. Data retention
We retain booking, payment, and support records for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period afterward to meet legal, tax, dispute-resolution, and service-quality requirements. You may request deletion of your account data as described in Section 9, subject to any records we are legally required to keep.
8. Data security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures — such as restricted access to booking and payment systems — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we encourage you to keep your account credentials confidential and to report any suspected unauthorized access immediately.
9. Your rights and choices
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or ask how it has been used, by contacting support@spinoto.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
10. Children's privacy
The Platform is intended for use by individuals aged 18 and above, consistent with our Terms & Conditions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our services, technology, or legal obligations evolve. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "last updated" date. Continued use of the Platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
12. Governing law and contact
This policy is governed by the laws of India, with the courts of Ahmedabad, Gujarat having exclusive jurisdiction over related disputes. For any privacy questions, reach Aeromechx Automotive Private Limited (operating as Spinoto) at support@spinoto.com or via the Contact page.
