Vehicle Operation and Location Data

Our vehicles may be equipped with technology that collects
and transmits data from your rental vehicle. This may include information
collected from event data recorders, global positioning devices, OnStar®
systems, or any other similar technology. When installed and where permissible, this technology will enable us to collect and use information such as:

  • location information;  
  • collision information; and
  • vehicle operation information, such as operational condition, mileage, tire pressure and fuel status, and other diagnostic and performance information.

Once collected, this information may be combined with information you have provided us and used to generate safety, performance, and other similar information so that we can deliver better services. Our use of the information may also include storage of this information after the expiration of your rental agreement. Renting a vehicle does not prohibit us from obtaining and using data collected from the vehicle. Our use of the information may also include storage of this information after the expiration of the rental agreement. Your use of the Vehicle Data Systems made available to you is subject to the terms and conditions and privacy policy posted by the applicable Vehicle Data Systems provider and/or vehicle manufacturer (in the case of OnStar, information is available at www.onstar.com), which may include system and service limitations, warranty exclusions, limitations of liability, wireless service provider terms, privacy practices, descriptions of use and sharing of information and user responsibilities. See a list of manufacturers from which we purchase vehicles on the Vehicle Manufacturers page.  Our use of information collected from the rental vehicle may include sharing information with third parties as described in this policy. 

If you pair your mobile device with the rental vehicle’s satellite navigation or infotainment systems, your personal information may be transferred to and stored on these systems. We cannot guarantee the privacy or confidentiality of such information and it is your responsibility to wipe your personal information from these systems before returning the vehicle. Otherwise, the next users of the vehicle will be able to access this information.

If you download a mobile application made available by the vehicle manufacturer and you register the rental vehicle in that app, your use of the app may result in the sharing of personal data, vehicle information, location information and driving characteristics with the vehicle manufacturer. Your use of these apps is strictly governed by the vehicle manufacturer’s terms and conditions and privacy policy.  Prior to returning the rental vehicle, it is your responsibility to either remove the app or delete the rental vehicle from the app.

Vehicle Data will be shared with emergency service providers, others who assist in responding to an accident, telematics service operators or those with whom we have a legal or contractual obligation to provide such data.

Children's Privacy

Our websites and online marketing are not directed to, and Commute with Enterprise does not knowingly collect personal information from, children under the age of 18. If you nevertheless believe that your child has provided us with their personal information and you need to let us know to delete it, please contact us using the contact information listed below.

These companies may sell that information to other businesses for advertising and other purposes.
