Safety tips

The safety of our members is a priority for liftshare, and we have made all of our web-sites as secure as we can. All members' details are stored securely in the database which fully complies with the Data Protection Act and only the member's intended travel information can be accessed on-line. For more information about the Data Protection Act please visit the following link: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/RightsAndResponsibilities/

When it comes to travelling, every member is responsible for his or her own safety. However liftshare do recommend that members follow some simple security measures outlined below:

• Avoid exchanging home addresses with your travelling companion before you meet them.
• Arrange to meet in a public place.
• Inform a friend or family member of who you will be travelling with, when and to where.
• Make sure you show each other your I.D.s - passports, student cards or driving licences - so you know you're travelling with the right person.
• You are under no obligation to travel together. If you have any doubts about your travelling companion, for any reason, you should avoid travelling with them.
• If you have any problems please call us immediately on 08700 111199 and we will endeavour to help in any way that we can.
