This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website, twincitiesshuttle.com, our booking services, and related customer communications. By using our website or booking services, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information when you use our website or booking services:

2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To process, manage, and confirm shuttle bookings.
- To provide transportation services, including pickup, drop-off, scheduling, route coordination, and customer support.
- To send booking-related communications, including booking confirmations, pickup reminders, schedule updates, delay notices, driver-arrival updates, cancellation confirmations, and customer-service replies.

3. SMS Communications
If you provide your mobile phone number and opt in to receive text messages from Twin Cities Shuttle, we may use your number to send transactional booking-related SMS messages. These messages may include booking confirmations, pickup reminders, schedule updates, delay notices, driver-arrival updates, cancellation confirmations, and customer-service replies.
Message frequency varies based on your reservations and support requests. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of SMS messages at any time by replying STOP. You may reply HELP for help.
SMS consent is not required to purchase shuttle service. If SMS consent is optional on a booking form, you may still complete your booking without agreeing to receive text messages, although we may need to contact you by another method for booking-related service issues.
We do not sell, share, rent, or disclose your mobile phone number or SMS opt-in consent information to third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may share mobile number and SMS consent information only with service providers who help us deliver text messages, operate our communications systems, provide booking services, or comply with legal and carrier requirements.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:
- With Service Providers: We may share information with third-party service providers who help us operate our business, website, booking system, payment processing, customer communications, SMS delivery, email delivery, hosting, analytics, or related services. These providers are permitted to use information only as needed to provide services to us.
- With Payment Processors: Payment information may be processed by third-party payment processors such as Stripe or other payment providers. Their use of your information is governed by their own privacy policies and security practices.
- With Booking, Communication, and Transportation Support Tools: We may use third-party systems to help manage reservations, customer communications, dispatch coordination, and operational messages.
- For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, legal process, or government request, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, customers, business, safety, or property.
- Business Transfers: If Twin Cities Shuttle is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
For clarity, SMS opt-in consent information and mobile phone numbers will not be sold, shared, rented, or disclosed to third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
