1. Nature of the Platform

GYR-Rides is a technology platform that enables users seeking transportation services ("Riders") to connect with independent third-party transportation providers ("Drivers"). GYR-Rides does not provide transportation services, does not operate as a motor carrier, taxi service, or transportation network company under employment law, and does not own, lease, or control any vehicles.

All transportation services are provided solely by Drivers, who are independent contractors and not employees, agents, or representatives of GYR-Rides.
