ATTOS Privacy Notice
Last updated: 11 November 2026
Ashley Tow Taxi Limited, trading as Ashley’s Tow Taxi, operates ATTOS as a private internal towing and dispatch system. This notice explains how personal information is handled in ATTOS and through its owner-authorised Google connection.
Information and purpose
ATTOS handles information needed to arrange and carry out towing and vehicle transport jobs. This can include customer names and contact details, vehicle details, collection and delivery addresses, job instructions, allocations and status updates. Location and tracking information may be used where the relevant feature is active. We use this information for bookings, dispatch, driver coordination, customer communication and business records.
Google permissions
The owner’s Google Drive read-only permission (drive.readonly) allows viewing and downloading files accessible to the connected Google account. It is a broad account permission, not limited by Google to one ATTOS folder or file. ATTOS uses this connection to access information needed for its business workflow. This permission does not allow ATTOS to create, edit or delete Google Drive files.
The email permission (userinfo.email) provides the connected Google account’s email address for account identification. It does not grant access to Gmail messages or permission to send email. The owner authorises this connection; reading these public pages does not connect a visitor’s Google account.
Access, sharing and protection
ATTOS information is for authorised business use. Access and disclosure should be limited to staff, drivers, service providers and other recipients who need the information to carry out the job, support the system, or meet legal obligations. Service providers may process information outside New Zealand. We take reasonable steps to protect personal information and keep account credentials and authorisation tokens private.
Google user data must not be sold, used for advertising, or used to train general-purpose AI models. ATTOS’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Retention and removal
We retain personal information for as long as needed for the business purpose for which it was collected, including relevant record-keeping and legal requirements. Contact us to request access, correction or deletion. Some records may need to be retained where there is a lawful reason.
The owner can revoke ATTOS access through the connected Google account’s third-party connections settings. This stops future access through that authorisation and may interrupt the connected ATTOS feature. Revoking access does not automatically delete business records already held. Contact us to request removal of retained Google-derived data or authorisation credentials that are no longer needed.
