28. Please note that payments for the services provided are collected using payment service providers (when paying by bank/credit card) and/or mobile network operators (when paying through the mobile network operator’s invoice).
29. When registering and/or logging in to the App using authentication solutions of other systems (e.g. Google, Apple or others), the App user’s name, surname and/or title and e-mail address are received from the respective data controllers.
30. When a bank or credit card is added (“saved”) in the App, it is first checked, i.e. authorised, to ensure that the card is valid and suitable for use. If this check is successful, you are given the option to pay for services:
30.1. After placing the desired tickets in the cart and confirming the purchase, the payment is automatically charged to the added card.
30.2. When choosing card payment for parking in fee zones and Open Parking Facilities, after starting a parking session the fee is automatically charged to the added card at established intervals.
30.3. In Closed Parking Facilities, payment from the added card is charged only after payment is initiated before leaving the parking facility. After payment, it is necessary to leave the parking facility within 15 minutes; if you do not leave, a new parking session will begin.
30.4. Your additional confirmation or separate consent is no longer requested for each payment.
30.5. It should be noted that the App uses a direct payment charging solution (“plugin”), under which the data of your added (“saved”) card (e.g. card number, expiry date, security code) are transferred to the payment service provider only at the time of initiating a specific payment. For this reason, the Company does not process these card data in its systems – it does not receive, see or store them. The Company receives only information related to the completed payment transaction, including transaction data and limited information about the card used for payment, which is necessary for transaction identification and confirmation of payment for the service.
31. We inform you that, in order to pay for tickets in the App by electronic banking, you will need to authorise the payment. During this process, you will be redirected to your online bank and asked to log in using the chosen authentication tool (e.g. “Smart-ID”, mobile signature, code generator or another method applied by the bank). Electronic banking may be used to pay only for tickets. This payment method is not available for parking services. Also, when making payment for parking in this way, your bank may additionally ask you to confirm the payment transaction using one of the authentication methods it offers. It should be noted that the App uses a direct bank payment solution (“plugin”), under which the data of your added (“saved”) bank account (e.g. account number, identification codes, personal identification information) are transferred to the payment service provider only at the time of initiating a specific payment. For this reason, the Company does not receive, process or store these data in its systems. The Company receives only information related to the completed payment transaction, including transaction data and limited information about the bank account used, which is necessary for payment identification and confirmation of payment for the service. The added payment card is automatically removed from the account after 4 years from the date it was added. If the card expires earlier than 4 years, it remains visible in the account, but it can be used for payment only until the card expiry date. Attempting to pay with an expired card will result in the payment being declined.
32. We receive personal data directly from the App user when they register or log in to their account in the App (including when authentication solutions of other providers are used, e.g. Google, Apple or others). Data are also received when the App user orders the services provided or uses the App functionality.
33. The App is permitted to determine the user’s telephone number and, with the App user’s consent, to obtain the user’s location using the Global Positioning System (GPS), in order to display the App user’s location on the map, thereby enabling the App user to see the nearest public transport stop or parking zone, etc., and also to plan the fastest route (however, location data are not stored). When the App operates using a mobile internet connection, the App uses packet data, which are charged according to the tariffs of the user’s mobile network operator.
34. For the App to obtain and use GPS data, the App user may choose one of several location sharing options: “allow once”, “allow while using the App” or “do not allow” (depending on the operating system of the mobile device, the displayed consent text may differ). The App user may at any time withdraw consent for the App to obtain and use the user’s GPS data in the settings of the mobile device operating system by selecting the location sharing options specified above in this clause. Refusing or withdrawing permission does not prevent the use of the App; however, as a result, functionalities that require the App user’s location to be determined, such as selecting the nearest stops, parking zones or routes, may not operate or may be restricted.
35. The privacy provisions specify all categories of personal data that we may process when providing the App services. However, we note that not all of these data are mandatory – certain personal data are collected only depending on the data subject’s choice and initiated actions. For example, certain data may be provided only in cases where the data subject wishes to receive an invoice. If such a need is not expressed, the respective data are not collected or processed. Thus, the specific data processed depend on the App functionalities chosen by the data subject and the scope of services used.
36. A purchased Passenger Ticket and a paid Local Fee/Parking Fee paid using the App are linked to its user’s account.
37. The App user is responsible for the authenticity of the data provided.
38. Detailed information about the conditions for processing and/or storing personal data collected in the App is provided in the Privacy and Cookie Policy and/or Personal Data Processing Rules published on the website www.judu.lt.
39. Rights of data subjects and their exercise:
39.1. You have the right to request that the Company allow you to access your personal data being processed, request that they be corrected and/or deleted, and/or restrict the processing of such data, and/or the right to object to data processing, as well as the right to data portability.
39.2. To exercise your rights, you may contact the Company by e-mail at [email protected]. If the matter cannot be resolved with the Company, you may contact the State Data Protection Inspectorate ([email protected]), which is responsible for the supervision and control of legal acts regulating personal data protection.
39.3. If you have any questions or complaints regarding the processing of your personal data, you may contact the Company by e-mail at [email protected].
CHAPTER VI.
USE OF ANALYTICAL TOOLS
40. The App collects and processes certain data about users and their devices. For the purposes of ensuring the operation of the App, security and error analysis, technical error and crash data, device information (device model, operating system, app version) and other diagnostic data necessary to ensure the stability of the App are processed. These data are processed in order to ensure the security and stability of the App and to promptly identify and eliminate technical errors. For analytics and App improvement purposes, data on the user’s interaction with the App may be processed, such as screen views, clicks, navigation in the App, session information and data on the use of functions. These data are used to understand how the App is used, identify usage problems and improve the App user experience. For analytics purposes, an internal pseudonymous user identifier, “User ID”, may also be used, enabling sessions of the same user to be linked and long-term use of the App to be analysed. This identifier does not directly identify the App user by itself; however, it may be linked to the user’s account in the App systems. The “User ID” is not used for personalised advertising or for tracking users in other apps or websites.
41. Results of service use (e.g. ticket purchases, activations, payments, parking sessions and other operations) may be recorded in Backend systems in order to ensure data accuracy, reliability and to avoid data duplication.
42. In certain cases, the App may transfer additional contextual information to Backend systems where this is necessary for the provision of the service (e.g. selection of an applicable discount).
43. Third-party services used for data processing:
43.1. Google Firebase (including Firebase Crashlytics);
43.2. Microsoft Clarity;
43.3. Meta Platforms SDK.
44. Meta SDK is used for personalised advertising only after obtaining the App user’s explicit and freely given consent in the App. Consent may be withdrawn at any time in the App settings.
45. Technical error, crash and security data necessary for the operation of the App are processed on the basis of legitimate interest, in order to ensure stable and secure operation of the App.
46. Other analytical data are used for analysis of the App’s operation, use and quality.
47. Meta SDK data are processed only after obtaining the App user’s consent.
48. Analytics reports are prepared using summarised (aggregated) data. The activity of an individual App user is not analysed.
CHAPTER VII
DIRECT MARKETING AND PERSONALISED ADVERTISING
49. Direct marketing is carried out under the following conditions:
49.1. The Company may use the App user’s contact data (e.g. e-mail address) for the Company to send the App user direct marketing communications about the Company’s services, news, offers, surveys or other information related to the Company’s activities.
49.2. Direct marketing communications may be sent by e-mail or through other communication channels provided by the App user only where there is a legal basis for doing so, including the App user’s consent or another legitimate interest, where permitted under applicable legal acts.
49.3. The App user has the right to opt out of direct marketing communications at any time. Opting out is possible by clicking the relevant link in each e-mail or by contacting the Company using the indicated contacts. Opting out will not affect the App user’s ability to use the Company’s services.
50. Personalised advertising is carried out under the following conditions:
50.1. Third-party tools, including the “Meta” software development kit (Meta SDK), may be used in the App to display personalised advertising, measure advertising effectiveness and analyse app usage behaviour.

CHAPTER VIII.
PAYMENT, ACTIVATION AND REFUND PROCEDURES
Procedure for purchasing, paying for and activating a Passenger Ticket.
Ticket return and transfer
52. The types and prices of Passenger Tickets are established by a decision of the Vilnius City Municipal Council. Public transport fare discounts are established in the Law on Public Passenger Transport Fare Discounts of the Republic of Lithuania and in decisions of the Vilnius City Municipal Council. The procedure for using public transport, the rights and obligations of the carrier, driver and passengers, liability, and the procedure for passenger, carrier and public transport control are established by the Rules for the Carriage of Passengers and Luggage on Public Transport of Vilnius City Municipality approved by a decision of the Vilnius City Municipal Council (current version).
53. Information about prices and applicable discounts is provided on the website www.judu.lt and in the App.
54. Tickets may be purchased in the App using payment cards (Visa, Mastercard) or via your electronic banking.
55. The App user undertakes to pay, at their own expense, fees related to the purchase and activation of a ticket (for example, the payment transfer fee set by a bank or another payment intermediary).
56. The App user must purchase the Passenger Ticket before boarding the public transport vehicle.
57. The App user must ensure that their ticket is properly activated. If the ticket cannot be properly activated, the App user must purchase a ticket by other means.
58. When activating a ticket in the App, a 15-second ticket activation duration applies, which the App user must take into account so that the ticket is activated properly and on time. The ticket is not valid until the activation duration has expired.
59. An activated ticket in the App is linked to the unique telephone device on which the ticket was activated and will not be displayed on other devices on which the same account is used.
60. The App user is responsible for the correct selection of the ticket type and discount (fare concession) type, justification of the right to a transport discount, ticket activation (taking into account the ticket activation duration), proper presentation of the ticket to passenger control and other data entered and selected.
61. Several identical or different types of Passenger Tickets may be purchased and activated on one phone at the same time. The purchaser is responsible for selecting and activating the correct types of tickets.
62. In the App, the App user may view information about ticket purchases and activations and receive a VAT invoice.
63. A non-activated (unused) ticket may be returned within 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the date of ticket purchase by logging in to the customer self-service website at https://judu.lt/isigytu-bilietu-ir-e-pinigines-lesu-grazinimas. The money for the returned ticket shall be transferred within 30 (thirty) calendar days from completion of the return procedure to the same bank account from which payment for the ticket was made.
64. In the App system, the user may transfer the desired non-activated ticket(s) from one account to another. A ticket(s) may be transferred only once. A transferred ticket(s), even if non-activated, cannot be returned. The Company assumes no liability if the user transfers a ticket(s) to an incorrect JUDU user account or transfers an incorrect type of ticket to another JUDU user account.
65. In the App system, the user may transfer the desired activated ticket(s) from one unique telephone device to another (without changing the JUDU user account), but not more often than once every 7 days, calculated from the moment of the last successful transfer of an activated ticket.
66. The user account held in the m.Ticket app and the tickets contained therein are transferred to the App (the JUDU user account) automatically after identifying the telephone number used to log in to m.Ticket or after adding in the App the telephone number used to create the m.Ticket account. Only the first linked m.Ticket user account and the tickets contained therein may be transferred to the App in this way.
Procedure for payment of the Local Fee
67. Local Fee zones, fee amounts, discounts, payment procedure and other information on the use of paid vehicle parking spaces are regulated by the Regulations on the Local Fee for the Use of Paid Parking Spaces Established by the Council, as approved by the Vilnius City Municipal Council.
68. Payment of the Parking Fee in a Local Fee zone, where payment is made using a mobile network operator’s service or a bank card, is carried out from the telephone account or bank account from which it was ordered.
69. The App user undertakes to pay, at their own expense, fees related to payment of the Local Fee (e.g. the App service fee set by their mobile network operator or by the App user’s payment institution servicing the payment card). Additional terms and conditions applied by the third-party payment service provider may also apply to the payment method; therefore, before choosing a payment method, the App user should review and assess these terms and conditions. It should be noted that payment through a mobile network operator is available only for parking services; this payment method applies only to parking services and cannot be used to pay for public transport tickets.
70. The App user must ensure that their account contains a sufficient balance to pay the Local Fee. If the App user’s account does not contain sufficient funds to pay the Local Fee, payment of the Local Fee is automatically terminated. Payment of the Local Fee may be terminated only from the same telephone device from which the Local Fee was paid.
71. In the App, the App user may choose one of the following Local Fee payment management modes:
71.1. to stop payment of the Local Fee themselves in each case (“I will stop it myself”) – the App user decides, on their own initiative and at their discretion, when to stop payment of the Local Fee and stops the payment themselves;
71.2. to set automatic payment of the Local Fee for a selected period – payment of the Local Fee is automatically terminated upon expiry of the paid period or time interval pre-set by the user in the App.
72. Where the App user selects the mode specified in Sub-clause 71.1 of the Rules in the App, the following rules apply:
72.1. payment of the Local Fee is not terminated automatically (neither at the end of the day, nor at the end of a 24-hour period, nor at the end of any other period);
72.2. payment of the Local Fee is terminated and ends in the following cases:
72.2.1. if the App user stops payment of the Local Fee themselves in the App;
72.2.2. upon expiry of the seven-calendar-day automatic validity period of the Local Fee, calculated from the date of activation of Local Fee payment.
72.3. The Local Fee is calculated only for actual paid periods, as defined in the Regulations on the Local Fee for the Use of Paid Parking Spaces Established by the Council and approved by the Vilnius City Municipal Council. During a free period (for example, at night, on weekends or during other periods established by the municipality), the fee is not calculated; however, the Local Fee payment session (calculation of the Local Fee) remains active and is not terminated until the Local Fee payment session is terminated or expires.
73. The App uses a consolidated Local Fee collection time; therefore, when paying the Local Fee, it is necessary to make sure whether the Local Fee is collected at that time in the zone in which the vehicle is parked. The Local Fee collection time is indicated by road signs and information boards; therefore, when paying the Local Fee, the driver (keeper) of the vehicle must follow the road signs and information boards.
74. The paid Local Fee does not ensure or reserve a parking space for the vehicle. The paid Local Fee also does not grant the right to park the vehicle in the area of validity of prohibitory road signs or otherwise fail to comply with the Road Traffic Rules.
75. The start of Local Fee payment is considered to be the moment when the vehicle keeper or driver receives positive confirmation in the App that payment of the Local Fee has been successfully started. The vehicle keeper or driver must start payment of the Local Fee and receive such confirmation without leaving the vehicle, unless otherwise established in applicable legal acts. A notification about the end of the paid vehicle parking time for the selected zone on that day or about termination of Local Fee payment is provided to the App user after the service is stopped or payment is terminated.
76. The App user is responsible for the proper and correct payment of the Local Fee, selection and termination of the Local Fee zone and paid vehicle parking time, entry of the registration number and other entered and selected data, as well as for the internet connection required to use the App. If the App user does not receive confirmation that payment of the Local Fee has been successfully started, sees an error message in the App or has reasonable doubts as to whether payment of the Local Fee has been started, they must pay the Local Fee by another available method and contact the Company using the contacts specified in the App or on the website. Initiating payment in the App alone is not considered proper payment of the Local Fee if the App user has not received confirmation of successful commencement of payment.
Procedure for payment of the Parking Fee
77. The App may be used to pay the Parking Fee in Parking Facilities in Vilnius that are specified on the Company’s website www.judu.lt and in the App.
78. The procedure and methods for paying the Parking Fee and/or other information on the use of Parking Facilities are provided on the website www.judu.lt and in the Parking Facility Rules specified below (hereinafter referred to as the Parking Facility Rules):
78.1. the Rules for the Use of Vehicle Parking Facilities Operated by ME “Susisiekimo paslaugos” (or another legal act replacing them), which are published on the website www.judu.lt;
78.2. the Rules for the Use of Vehicle Parking Facilities without a Barrier of ME “Susisiekimo paslaugos” approved by the Director of ME “Susisiekimo paslaugos” (or another legal act replacing them), which are published on the website www.judu.lt;
79. The Parking Fee rates are published in the Parking Facilities, on the Company’s website www.judu.lt and in the App.
80. Payment of the Parking Fee in Open Parking Facilities, where payment is made using a mobile network operator’s service or a bank card, is carried out from the telephone account or bank account from which it was ordered.
81. The App user undertakes to pay, at their own expense, fees related to payment of the Parking Fee (e.g. the App service fee set by their mobile network operator or by the App user’s payment institution servicing the payment card). Additional terms and conditions applied by the third-party payment service provider may also apply to the payment method; therefore, before choosing a payment method, the App user should review the terms and conditions of the selected payment method.
82. The App user must ensure that their account contains a sufficient balance to pay the Parking Fee. If the App user’s account does not contain sufficient funds, the person must pay the unpaid Parking Fee in accordance with the procedure established in the Parking Facility Rules – at an automatic payment machine, etc. In Closed Parking Facilities, after payment is made, 15 free minutes are granted to leave the parking facility.
83. In Open Parking Facilities, the Parking Fee is paid immediately after parking the vehicle in the parking space. In Closed Parking Facilities, the Parking Fee starts to be calculated automatically (the service is deemed ordered) when the vehicle registration number is read at the barrier and the vehicle enters the Parking Facility after the barrier opens.
84. An order for a specific vehicle left in a Closed Parking Facility is visible and can be managed (stopped/paid) from all telephone devices (with the App installed) that (whose App user account) were linked to the vehicle registration number. For personal data security purposes, all the aforementioned telephone devices (in the App) indicate that the order is being carried out in a Parking Facility, without specifying which one. The linking of the App user account to a specific vehicle registration number occurs when the vehicle registration number is entered in the App. To remove the linking of the App user account to a specific vehicle registration number, the vehicle registration number must be deleted on the telephone device (in the App).
85. The App user is responsible for ensuring that the vehicle registration numbers entered in their account are current and used lawfully. If the App user no longer uses the vehicle or no longer has the right to pay for parking services related to it, they must remove that vehicle registration number from the App. The Company shall not be liable for the consequences suffered by the App user when the Parking Fee is paid or the parking service is provided because the App user did not remove an outdated vehicle registration number from their account, except where such consequences arose due to the Company’s fault or disruptions in the operation of the App.
86. After stopping the service (by pressing the “Stop” button in the App and sliding “Stop service”), the App user of the specific telephone device is warned by a separate notification in the App whether they really wish to stop the parking service and pay the Parking Fee. If the App user of the specific telephone device confirms their decision to stop the parking service after the above-mentioned notification, they are responsible for paying the Parking Fee and the Parking Fee is charged to this App user. The Parking Fee may be paid not only using the App, but also at an automatic payment machine in the Parking Facility, if such an option is available.
87. The App user may download an invoice in the App for the Parking Fee when paid by bank card, except where the Parking Fee is paid using a mobile network operator’s service or where a notice regarding an unpaid local fee for vehicle parking, called the “Yellow Slip”, is paid. In such cases, an invoice is not generated in the App.
CHAPTER IX.
