TERMS SPECIFICALLY APPLICABLE TO HASTINGS DIRECT YOUDRIVE POLICIES ONLY;

Google Maps	google.com/help/terms_maps/	policies.google.com/privacy
Apple Maps	www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/maps/terms-en.html	www.apple.com/privacy/

Meaning of words used in this section applicable to Hastings Direct YouDrive policies only:
- YouDrive Tab (or Tab) is the small wireless device you fit to your Car as part of your Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy.
- Driving Data is the information that is collected from the App and YouDrive Tab.
- Driving Style is the way you drive.
- Driving Score is the rating we create based on your Driving Data visible to you in the App.
The Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy is aimed at customers who wish to share their Driving Data with Hastings Direct to gain visibility of their Driving Style. You'll find your Driving Data in the "Your Driving" section of the App. Please refer to the Frequent Asked Questions section available for a detailed description of the App features. For more detail on what sorts of information we capture and how it is used please refer to our Privacy Notice.
The Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy require that:
1. you must accept these App terms and install the App on to a Device within 7 days of taking out a Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy, failing which we may cancel your Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy (See Cancellations in the Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy); and
2. you give us permission to use location services, Bluetooth and motion sensors (where applicable) as these are necessary for the Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy. You must allow the App to use these services and ensure they are turned on when you drive. For more information see the Hastings Direct YouDrive Policy.
3. you should ensure that the battery of your Device is sufficiently charged and you always have access to mobile data to enable your driving data to be recorded and shared via the App. You can set the App to "upload trip data using Wi-Fi only", which can be found in the settings section of the App. This will reduce the amount of data the app uses from your own mobile data allowance. This feature will only stop your trip data from being uploaded via mobile data. We cannot be held responsible for any charges relating to data use.

You understand that your safety and the safety of others through the safe control of your vehicle is of paramount importance and you will make sure that your Device is safely secured in your vehicle in a way which does not interfere with your ability to drive safely and legally; and you will only interact with the App once you have completed you're driving. Interaction for starting and stopping your journey is not required and will happen automatically (see Hastings Direct YouDrive FAQs for more details). The above is not meant to serve as a comprehensive set of instructions and you must exercise prudence as is expected from any diligent driver from your own safety and that of other co-passengers or other persons or drivers with whom you share the road.
