We process the collected personal data for the following purposes: • To notify users when the platform registration becomes available • To manage and maintain the waitlist of interested professional drivers If the user provides separate and explicit consent during the registration process, their contact details may also be used to send occasional marketing communications related to platform features, job opportunities, service updates, and other relevant information about the CE.D platform. This consent will be requested through a dedicated marketing communication checkbox at the time of registration and is entirely optional. Users who do not provide such consent will still be able to use the platform and receive only essential service-related notifications. Consent for marketing communications can be withdrawn at any time through the unsubscribe option included in each communication or by contacting us directly. All waitlist notifications and communications are sent directly by CE.D personnel. We do not use automated third-party marketing platforms for these communications at this stage.

The data is retained for the duration of the waitlist phase until the platform is launched and the initial registration period is completed. After the launch, users will be invited to create a full account on the platform. If a user does not proceed with registration, their waitlist data will be deleted within a reasonable period, unless they have provided additional consent for further communication or processing.
