Disputes arising from consumer rights, legal obligations or from law applicable to the provision of transport services will be resolved between the passengers and drivers. Data regarding the drivers and their transport service is available in the MyCoPilot app and receipts for journeys are sent to the email address listed in the passenger's profile.
