  2. 5iveruk Services
    1. 5iveruk and its licensors provide a digital marketplace and information society service, accessed via the Driver App and the 5iveruk passenger application, that allows 5iveruk to accept requests from Passengers for requests for transport services and then make these requests available, through the Driver App, to Drivers to select, to the extent the Drivers agree to do so on any given occasion, to fulfil such requests directly with the Passengers (together, the “Software Services”).
    2. 5iveruk and its licensors agree to provide the Software and Software Services to You free of charge, for use in accordance with these Driver Terms.

You have, and will continue to have, all the necessary permits, licences (including a private vehicle hire licence), insurances, road tax and authorisations to provide the Journeys under these Driver Terms. Where there are ‘special conditions’ attached to my London Private Hire Driver’s Licence, particularly though not limited to, limitations on the period of time which, or periods, during which I am/am not permitted to provide services, I agree to fully comply by those conditions.
      9. You will, at all times while providing Rides, have valid hire and reward insurance, liability insurance (if applicable) and any other insurance that is required in the United Kingdom for providing passenger transportation services.
      10. You are, and will at all times be, medically fit to operate a motor vehicle and shall not engage in reckless behaviour while driving, including by driving unsafely, operating a vehicle that is unsafe to drive, permitting an unauthorised third party to accompany You in the vehicle while providing Rides, providing Rides while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or taking action that harms or threatens to harm the safety of Passengers or third parties;
      11. You acknowledge that 5iveruk will process your personal data in accordance with the 5iveruk Privacy Policy available from the Website (https://www.5iveruk.com) (see clause 16 of these Driver Terms for further information); and
      12. You understand that 5iveruk will provide information regarding You, Your Driver account, and Your trip history to law enforcement agencies as 5iveruk deems it appropriate do so in cooperation with investigations or otherwise.

These conditions shall include owning a GPS-supporting mobile device, having the right to use a motor vehicle, and not having a criminal record and may include completing a Software introductory course, driver training and other conditions as determined by 5iveruk.
    5. 5iveruk will review Your application and may approve You to be a driver associated with 5iveruk if You meet the necessary criteria.
    6. 5iveruk will continually monitor Your compliance with these Driver Terms, including by verifying Your licences, insurances, and information (also with third persons). You agree to:
      1. co-operate with 5iveruk and provide any further documents or information requested in order for 5iveruk to conduct such checks; and
      2. promptly disclose to 5iveruk if there has been any material change in Your circumstances that relate to Your ability, fitness, or legal entitlement to offer or perform Rides or ability to comply with these Driver Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, but without limitation, this will include any revocation of Your driver’s licence, refusal of insurance, changes to Your eligibility for a private vehicle hire licence, and criminal investigation, charges, or convictions.
    7. Where You fail to comply with any of the requirements and/or conditions set out in these Driver Terms, 5iveruk will be entitled to immediately terminate these Driver Terms with You, in which case you will no longer be permitted to use the Software.
  4. 5iveruk Driver App
    1. Once approved to use the Driver App, 5iveruk will send You details of how to download and set up the Driver App as well as a personal account which can be used by You to access the Software.
    2. As long as you comply with these Driver Terms, 5iveruk agrees to allow You to access and use the Software Services in accordance with these Driver Terms, the 5iveruk Privacy Policy, and the applicable app-store terms (incorporated into these Driver Terms by reference). You may not transfer or sub-license this right to use the Software Services.
    3. In order to use the Software, you must access your personal account in the Driver App using your username (your email) and password You selected during registration and update Your account information. You warrant that You will always keep this account profile up to date.
    4. 5iveruk will use the Driver App to communicate with You in relation to possible Rides you may or may not wish to agree to provide to Passengers as part of your business undertaking which are around Your current location and to remind You of various road rules, send You messages and restrict pick-up areas as per Your licence jurisdiction. The Driver App is the only way in which You:
      1. can elect to fulfil a Journey with a Passenger and record and process the Rides performed through the Software; and
      2. may contact a Passenger who is the receiver of the Ride You have elected to fulfil. You must not contact, through the Driver App or by any other communication method, any Passenger to find out the destination of their requested Journey.
    5. 5iveruk will have the sole authority under its Operating Licence to make provision for the invitation or acceptance of, or to accept, Ride requests from Passengers (through the 5iveruk passenger application). Once 5iveruk has accepted a journey request from a Passenger, 5iveruk will then seek to allocate this Ride booking to the closest Driver (geographically) to the Passenger to fulfil through the Driver App. If the closest Driver does not acknowledge the booking allocation within a set timeframe or declines to fulfil the Ride booking in the Driver’s absolute and sole discretion for whatever reason, the booking will then be re-allocated to the next closest Driver (and so on). It will be up to 5iveruk to terminate an accepted private hire booking for a Journey with a Passenger if it cannot successfully allocate a Driver to the relevant Ride. Once You have accepted the allocation of the Ride through the Driver App, all the relevant Ride information will appear in Your Driver App, including the details of the Passenger and the Ride starting point.
    6. In order to prioritise Driver and Passenger safety, 5iveruk may (at its discretion) limit Your access to the Driver App where You have been providing Journeys for long periods.
    7. If 5iveruk is made aware that Your behaviour has deviated from our Driver Terms, or that you are under investigation for a criminal offence, 5iveruk reserves the right to act by revoking Your access to your Driver account indefinitely or until 5iveruk sees fit.
    8. 5iveruk will, always, retain control and management of the Software Services (including dispatch services) in order to:
      1. accept and manage Ride bookings as set out in these Driver Terms.
      2. monitor driver and vehicle profiles.
      3. monitor, on screen, the location, status, and Ride details of all vehicles using the Software Services at any given time.
      4. provide support services in respect of dispatching.
      5. report on the Journeys.
      6. reject certain Passengers if their accounts are in arrears; and
      7. address complaints and lost property issues including liaison with local law enforcement.
    9. You are responsible for all information posted on, and use of, the Software, from Your personal account. If You suspect that Your username or password have been copied or stolen, you must notify 5iveruk immediately.
    10. All intellectual property rights in the Software, its content and any related documentation existing anywhere in the world belong to 5iveruk or it’s licensors (and are protected by copyright and/or trade secret laws and other international treaty provisions) and may not be copied, distributed, uploaded, republished, decompiled, disassembled or transmitted in any way without 5iveruk’s prior written consent. You will not have any rights of ownership in the Software, its content, or any related documents.
  5. Support for the Driver App
    1. 5iveruk may provide support services in relation to use of the Driver App on business days from 08:00 – 18:00 GMT+2). The support services consist of in-app messaging and telephone support Taasai has the right to stop providing the support services at any time by giving You reasonable notice.
  6. Journey Bookings
    1. 5iveruk will accept Passenger requests for Journeys and then prompt You via the Driver App if a relevant Passenger booking has been generated for a Journey in Your area when You are available. These Passenger bookings will not be exclusive to You and will also be offered to other Drivers.
    2. Each Journey booking You choose in your absolute and sole discretion to fulfil through the Driver App will constitute a separate and distinct agreement in respect of the provision of that Journey by You to the Passenger, with each such agreement coming into force from the time You agree to undertake the specific allocated Journey booking made available to You by Taasai through the Driver App. You acknowledge that 5iveruk only provides the Software Service to facilitate the Journey bookings and allocation thereof to Drivers.
    3. 5iveruk does not guarantee that the use of the Software will result in You receiving offers for allocations of bookings for Journeys.
    4. You are not obliged to accept any offers for allocations of Journey bookings. 5iveruk encourages You to keep your profile up to date with when You are and are not available, in order to get relevant requests as this helps 5iveruk to offer to allocate, in principle, the bookings for Ride it has accepted in an efficient manner.
    5. You may cancel a Ride which you have accepted any time before You begin the Ride by informing the Passenger through the Driver App functionality available on the Software Services. However, 5iveruk will monitor the number and frequency of Ride’s You cancel and reserves the right to suspend or terminate Your access to the Software Services where You repeatedly, or consistently, cancel Rides after You have accepted them.
    6. As part of the Software Services, Passengers may provide feedback on You and Your provision of the Rides in the form of ratings. These ratings are made available to prospective Passengers as part of 5iveruk’s passenger application. You should contact Taasai if You have any issues with the ratings that You are provided with. 5iveruk shall provide You with assistance on the Software Services including steps to consider taking to help You maintain good Passenger feedback and ratings.
  7. Your Commitments to Passengers
    1. As a Driver you commit to each passenger that You will provide a high level of service to the Passengers in respect of the Rides which You agree to provide to the Passengers. In order to maintain 5iveruk integrity and reputation with a view to creating a successful digital marketplace for Drivers and Passengers, 5iveruk monitors Your activity on the Software. In the course of You providing the Journeys to the Passengers, you commit to the Passengers that you will:
      1. convey the Passenger from their collection point to their point of destination in a reasonably direct and efficient manner as You deem fit in your discretion, subject to appropriate unforeseen circumstances (such as a mechanical breakdown).
      2. comply with all laws and regulations applicable.
      3. at all times be medically fit to operate a motor vehicle, including being free from the influence of alcohol or drugs.
      4. not engage in reckless behaviour while driving or drive unsafely, including by operating a vehicle that is unsafe or illegal to drive or allowing a third party to operate the vehicle.
      5. act in a professional manner in accordance with the business ethics applicable to providing passenger transportation and endeavour to perform the Passenger’s request in the best interest of the Passenger.
      6. not carry weapons (or permit weapons in your vehicle), use, or encourage violence, racism, or discrimination in any form.
      7. have and maintain valid hire and reward insurance, liability insurance (if applicable) and any other insurance that is required in the applicable jurisdiction for providing passenger transportation services; and
      8. only use personal data provided by the Passenger in accordance with clauses 16.3 and 16.4 of these Driver Terms.
    2. You acknowledge that 5iveruk has no control over the Passenger. 5iveruk shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to how (or whether) the Passenger uses Your Rides, including delays or damage to person or property.
    3. You commit to report to 5iveruk any event out of the ordinary which occurs during the Journey. 5iveruk shall keep a record of all Journey bookings, complaints and lost property for the purposes and uses as elaborated in the 5iveruk Privacy Policy.
  8. Identification of Passengers
    1. Before starting a Ride, you must verify that You are providing the Ride to the Passenger shown in the Driver App (or that the Passenger has expressly confirmed that they allow the passenger to use their account).
    2. If You have made a mistake in identifying the Passenger, and the Fare (as defined in clause 10) is charged to a person who has not been provided or has not approved the Journey, 5iveruk shall reimburse the Passenger for the Fare paid. In such case, you shall not be entitled to receive a 5iveruk Payment (as defined in clause 11) for the relevant Journey from 5iveruk. For the avoidance of doubt, the Commission (as defined in clause 9.3) for that Journey will still be retained by 5iveruk.
  9. 5iveruk App Services
    1. 5iveruk (or its authorised payment agents) processes all payments in relation to the Driver App, including invoicing, collecting payment from Passengers, reporting on payments, refunding Passengers (where appropriate), and remitting payment to Drivers (“Payment Services”).
    2. You acknowledge that all Payment Services in relation to the Driver App will be performed by 5iveruk.
    3. In exchange for the Payment Services, you agree that 5iveruk will retain a commission fee from any Fare collected in accordance with clause 10, based on each Ride. You provide to a Passenger as a result of using the Software (“Commission”).
    4. You can verify the amount of the applicable Commission on the Driver App or the Website by entering Your username and password.
    5. The Commission amount may change from time to time, but You will be notified prior to any such change. If You do not agree to the change, you must delete the Driver App and Software and stop providing Rides through the Driver App. Your continued use of the Software after any such change in the Commission shall be taken as Your consent to such change.
    6. 5iveruk is not entitled to any fares or commissions you earn by providing any passenger transportation services independently or via another software provider.
  10. Fares
    1. You agree that 5iveruk will collect a fare on your behalf (through the Drivers App) for each completed Journey You provide to a Passenger through the Software (“Fare”).
    2. Before accepting an allocation of a Ride booking, you will be provided with an estimated (non-binding) Fare for the Ride (“Estimate”). The Estimate will also be provided to the Passenger.
    3. The actual Fare for each Ride provided by You will be determined by the Software, having regard to the actual journey time, any peak pricing and distance travelled. It is therefore possible that the Fare may be more or less than the Estimate.
    4. A Passenger may be offered to use a Ride option that allows the Passenger to agree to a fixed Fare for a given Ride provided by You (“Upfront Fare”). The Upfront Fare is communicated via the Software Services to a Passenger before the Ride is requested, and to You when the Ride is accepted or at the end of the Journey. The Fare calculated in accordance with section 10.3 shall be applied instead of Upfront Fare if the Passenger changes the destination during the Ride, the Ride takes materially longer than estimated due to traffic or other factors, or when other unexpected circumstances impact the characteristics of the Ride materially (e.g., a route is used where tolls apply).
    5. You may complete a journey by any reasonable route, and 5iveruk does not set any route restrictions. However, you commit to each Passenger that You will provide the Ride in accordance with clause 7.1 and otherwise in accordance with these Driver Terms. Where any Journey You completed did not comply with these Driver Terms, 5iveruk reserves the right to set-off any refunds or compensation offered by 5iveruk to the affected Passenger(s) against Your 5iveruk Payments.
    6. A Passenger may cancel a request for a Ride that a Driver has accepted via the Software Services. The Driver is entitled to a 5iveruk Payment for a cancelled Journey (“Cancellation Fee”) in the event that a Passenger cancels an accepted request for a ride after a certain time period determined by the Software Services.
  11. Payment
    1. All payments for Rides take place via the Software. You must not ask for, or take, cash payment for completed Rides.
    2. Once You end a Ride on the Driver App, 5iveruk shall invoice the Passenger on Your behalf and charge the Passenger’s nominated credit or debit card for the amount of the Fare. 5iveruk will then create a receipt on Your behalf setting out the route, the Fare, time, and other relevant information relating to that particular Ride.
    3. The receipt for each Ride will be accessible to You on the Driver App. The receipt will also be forwarded to the Passenger.
    4. 5iveruk shall transfer the amounts collected on Your behalf as your Fares less the applicable Commission which have been credited to 5iveruk (or its authorised payment agent’s) bank account in each week, to Your bank account by the 4th day of the following week, but in no case later than within two weeks except where the amount owing to You is less than £15 (“5iveruk Payments”). Where the amount owing to You is less than £15, 5iveruk will pay You when the amount owing to You next exceeds £15 (or where the relationship is terminated in accordance with clause 17, in which case 5iveruk will pay You whatever amount is owing). If You request a review of the 5iveruk Payments, then the payment deadlines referred to above shall not apply and 5iveruk may transfer the 5iveruk Payments after it has concluded the review.
    5. In the event that You dispute the amount of the Taasai Payments, Taasai may withhold the disputed amounts until the dispute has been resolved.
    6. Without prejudice to clause 11.9, You acknowledge that 5iveruk shall not be obliged to pay You the 5iveruk Payments due from a Fare in the event of non-payment for whatever reason or if the Passenger’s payment failed because the Passenger’s credit card or mobile payment is reversed, cancelled or is unsuccessful for any reasons not attributable to 5iveruk. If this occurs, 5iveruk will help You in requesting the Fare due from the Passenger in respect of the Ride. However, if 5iveruk is unable to collect the Fare for whatever reason, 5iveruk may decide not to pay You a 5iveruk Payment or may decide to pay You a 5iveruk Payment in whole or in part if it considers it is reasonable to do so. In any event, 5iveruk will not pay more than £100 per any one Journey.
    7. Your 5iveruk Payments reports will be made available to You in the Driver App on a weekly basis. The reports will show the Fares collected in relation to Your Rides, as well as the amounts of the Commission withheld by 5iveruk.
    8. 5iveruk and their Affiliate Companies (as defined in clause 15) reserve the right to distribute promo code to Passengers, at their discretion, on a per promotional basis. You are required to accept the use of promo code when the Passenger applies the code using the Software to a trip. If the use of promo codes by a Driver is suspected as being fraudulent, illegal, or in conflict with any of 5iveruk’s Terms and Conditions relating to promo code use, then the promo code may be cancelled, and the outstanding amount will not be reimbursed by 5iveruk to the Driver.
    9. Without prejudice to clause 11.6, You are responsible for the risk of non-payment of Fares for Extensive Rides (as defined in this clause). 5iveruk will help You in requesting the Fare due from the Passenger for an Extensive Ride in the event of non-payment, and 5iveruk will transmit a 5iveruk Payment to You if the Fare is ultimately collected from the Passenger. However, if 5iveruk determines that the trip is fraudulent or is unable to collect the Fare for an Extensive Ride from a Passenger after making one attempt to do so, no 5iveruk Payment will be made to you in respect of that Ride. In this clause, an “Extensive Ride” means a Passenger journey in excess of 90 miles in distance and/or two hours in duration and/or between two local authority areas.
  12. Reporting Misconduct
    1. Without affecting any of 5iveruk’s other rights under these Driver Terms, where 5iveruk has reasonable grounds to suspect that You have committed, attempted to commit, aided, or abetted a crime, they shall take all steps deemed necessary in the circumstances, including reporting Your misconduct to the appropriate authorities. You acknowledge that this may include reporting Your conduct to the Police, Transport for London, or any other relevant authority and providing that agency with Your details and/or any relevant information 5iveruk holds about the circumstances at issue. Where the misconduct relates to fraud, including fraudulent documents, 5iveruk reserve the right to withhold any payments payable to You as a result of fraudulently performing Journeys.
  13. Your Content
    1. You confirm that any text, images, or any other information that You provide to 5iveruk whilst using the Software Services (“User Content”) will meet the Rules of Acceptable Use (as defined in clause 14 below).
    2. Neither 5iveruk claims ownership in Your User Content and ownership will remain with You (or the relevant third-party owner). You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, and perpetual licence to use, copy, reproduce, distribute, adapt, re-format, modify, publish, translate, license, sub-license, and exploit the User Content anywhere and in any form for the purposes of providing the Software Services (including, where applicable, allowing other users to view Your User Content).
    3. You must ensure that You are able to grant us the above licence for any content owned by a third party that You include in Your User Content.
    4. 5iveruk’s right to use Your User Content does not in any way affect Your privacy rights. Please see section 16 of these Driver Terms for further information about how we use Your personal data.
    5. The Software Services makes available third-party content, such as User Content. Taasai is not responsible for any such content in any way, but may monitor User Content and reject, refuse, or delete any User Content where 5iveruk considers that it breaches any of the Rules of Acceptable Use (as defined in clause 14 below).
  14. Rules of Acceptable Use
    1. In addition to the other requirements within these Driver Terms, this clause describes specific rules that apply to Your use of the Software Services (the “Rules of Acceptable Use”).
