Effective
April 2026
Version
1.0 — MVP Release
Platform
DriveDocket Mobile Application (iOS & Android) and Web Application

1. Purpose

This Data Retention and Deletion Policy describes how DriveDocket Solutions LLC ("DriveDocket") retains, manages, and deletes personal information and documents collected through the DriveDocket mobile application (the "Application"). It is intended to complement the DriveDocket Privacy Policy and Terms of Service and to provide users with clear information about their rights regarding their data.

2. Scope

This policy applies to all personal information and documents collected from users of the DriveDocket Application across both the mobile application (iOS and Android) and the web application, including account information, uploaded documents, vehicle records, infraction records, compliance data, and authentication data.

3. Data Retention Principles

DriveDocket retains personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the service to you and to fulfill the purposes described in our Privacy Policy. Our retention approach is guided by the following principles:

  • We do not retain data beyond what is necessary for the stated service purpose.
  • We provide you with full control over your data, including the ability to delete individual documents and your entire account at any time.
  • We do not sell, license, or otherwise transfer retained data to third parties.
  • We apply appropriate security controls to all retained data throughout its lifecycle.

4. Retention Periods by Data Category

Data categoryRetention period
Account information and profile dataLife of your active account. Permanently deleted upon account deletion.
Uploaded documentsHeld in encrypted storage (AWS S3) for the life of your active account. Individual documents can be deleted at any time; all copies are permanently and irreversibly deleted upon account deletion.
OCR-extracted dataRetained for the life of your active account and deleted upon account deletion.
Vehicle records and infraction recordsLife of your active account. Deleted upon account deletion.
Authentication tokensJWT and refresh tokens expire per their configured expiry periods and are revoked on logout. Expired tokens are soft-deleted and may be retained briefly for security audit purposes before permanent deletion.
Push notification tokensLife of your active account. Deleted upon account deletion.
Server-side logsUp to 90 days for operational, debugging, and security purposes, then permanently deleted. Logs do not contain the content of uploaded documents.
One-time passcodes (OTP)Not retained. Time-limited, single-use, and discarded immediately upon use or expiration.

DriveDocket uses optical character recognition to automatically read and extract information from documents you upload — such as expiration dates, names, policy numbers, and violation details — without requiring you to type that information manually.

6. Account Deletion

6.1 User-Initiated Account Deletion

You may delete your account at any time through the Application Settings (Settings > Account > Delete Account). Account deletion is permanent and irreversible. Upon deletion, the following data is immediately and permanently removed from DriveDocket's systems:

  • User account record and all profile information.
  • Driver profile and all extracted license data.
  • All uploaded documents and all copies stored in AWS S3.
  • All vehicle information and records.
  • All infraction, citation, and violation records.
  • All notification history.
  • All push notification tokens.
  • All address history.
  • All authentication and refresh tokens.

Once your account is deleted, this action cannot be undone. You will not be able to recover any documents or data previously stored in the Application.

6.2 Account Deactivation

If you wish to temporarily suspend access to your account without deleting your data, you may request account deactivation by contacting DriveDocket at support@drivedocket.com. A deactivated account retains your data but prevents login access. You may reactivate your account at any time by contacting us. Deactivated accounts that remain inactive for more than 24 months will be subject to permanent deletion in accordance with this policy.

6.3 Operator-Initiated Deletion

DriveDocket reserves the right to delete accounts that are found to be in violation of the Terms of Service or that are otherwise determined to pose a risk to the Application or other users. Users will be notified prior to deletion where practicable.

7. Data Deletion Requests

In addition to in-app account deletion, you may submit a data deletion request by contacting DriveDocket at privacy@drivedocket.com. We will respond to verified deletion requests within 30 days. We may request verification of your identity before processing a deletion request.

Certain information may be exempt from deletion where retention is required by applicable law or where the information is necessary to resolve a dispute or enforce our Terms of Service.

8. User Rights by Jurisdiction

8.1 California Residents

California residents may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete personal information, and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. DriveDocket does not sell personal information. To exercise your California privacy rights, contact us at privacy@drivedocket.com.

8.2 Other State Privacy Laws

Several states have enacted or are enacting comprehensive consumer privacy laws. As DriveDocket serves users across the United States, we are committed to reviewing and updating this policy as additional state privacy laws take effect. Users in Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, and other states with applicable privacy laws may have rights similar to those described above. Contact us at privacy@drivedocket.com to exercise any applicable rights.

9. Security During Retention

All data retained by DriveDocket is stored using the following security measures:

  • Encrypted storage using AWS S3 with server-side encryption.
  • Secure API communications using TLS/HTTPS protocols.
  • Access controls restricting data access to authorized personnel only.
  • Automatic session expiry and token revocation to limit unauthorized access.

10. Changes to This Policy
