Working launch draft. Insert the contracting legal entity, address, compensation addendum and insurance limits, then obtain Illinois counsel review before accepting real drivers.
01

Agreement and eligibility

By electronically signing, the applicant requests admission to AURELIS and agrees to these operating terms. Admission is conditional on document review, vehicle approval, identity and phone verification, and any lawfully required screening. AURELIS may approve, request correction, suspend or decline participation based on documented safety, licensing, insurance or service requirements.

02

Driver representations

  • All submitted information and documents are complete, authentic and current.
  • The driver holds every license and authorization required for the services accepted.
  • The driver will notify AURELIS promptly of any suspension, citation, accident, claim, lapse, cancellation or material restriction affecting eligibility.
  • The driver will not share the Telegram account, Driver Unit, passenger data or trip controls with another person.
03

Approved vehicle

Only the vehicle assigned to the approved Driver Unit may perform an accepted trip unless Dispatch records a replacement. The driver must maintain registration, lawful ownership or lease authority, required livery credentials, inspection, commercial insurance, safe mechanical condition and the cleanliness and presentation standard represented in the application.

04

Trip acceptance and service

  • A driver may decline an unaccepted offer. Once accepted, the driver must perform the trip or immediately contact Dispatch if a safety, legal or genuine emergency issue prevents performance.
  • Pickup, passenger contact, route and status controls must be used accurately and promptly.
  • No unsafe driving, impairment, handheld-phone use while driving, harassment, discrimination, unauthorized passenger, side agreement or off-platform solicitation is permitted.
  • Passenger preferences, accessibility needs and safety issues must be handled lawfully, respectfully and escalated to Dispatch when needed.
05

Passenger confidentiality

Passenger names, phone numbers, locations, schedules and trip details are confidential and may be used only to perform the assigned trip, resolve a documented service issue or comply with law. The driver may not retain, publish, sell or use passenger information for personal marketing.

06

Compensation and expenses

The payout shown before acceptance is the trip payout unless Dispatch records an agreed adjustment. The treatment of tolls, parking, waiting time, gratuities, cancellations, taxes and payment timing must be stated in a separate compensation schedule accepted before live service. The driver is responsible for expenses and taxes allocated to the driver under that signed schedule and applicable law.

07

Relationship classification

This onboarding agreement controls platform access and service standards. It does not by itself determine whether a driver is an employee, independent contractor, fleet employee or other lawful category. AURELIS must use a separate services and compensation addendum consistent with the actual working relationship and applicable law; labels cannot override the facts or law.

08

Compliance review and screening

AURELIS may verify submitted credentials directly with issuing authorities and may require periodic replacements. If AURELIS obtains a consumer report from a third-party screening company, it will first provide the legally required stand-alone disclosure and authorization. Criminal-history inquiries and decisions will be handled at the stage and under the standards required by applicable Illinois and Chicago law.

09

Access, suspension and termination

AURELIS may immediately restrict trip access when a blocking document expires, the driver leaves the private Drivers group, the approved vehicle changes without authorization, safety or fraud is reasonably suspected, or continued access would violate law, insurance or platform security. Either side may end participation subject to completing or safely transferring any active passenger trip and resolving outstanding records or payment.

10

Electronic records and governing law

The typed legal name, acceptance checkbox, policy version, date and audit event form the electronic acceptance record. Illinois law governs this agreement, subject to mandatory federal and local rules. Any venue, arbitration, indemnity, limitation-of-liability or attorney-fee terms must be added only after counsel review and separate conspicuous acceptance.

11

Entire operating record

This agreement, the Privacy Policy, Retention Standard, approved application, document decisions and signed compensation/services addendum form the operating record. A material revision requires a new version and acceptance. If one term is unenforceable, the remaining lawful terms continue to the extent permitted.
