Turo puts a private individual on the other side of your driver's licence. The host sees your identity documents and may know where their car — with you in it — has been, because many listed cars carry in-vehicle devices or connected-car systems that track location (Turo's privacy policy says such third-party devices may track location and that the host and/or third-party service is responsible for that data). Damage disputes are the dominant friction and they are adjudicated by the platform between two private parties, neither of whom has a rental company's evidentiary process. The insurance layer is the underappreciated risk: coverage runs through a platform-arranged policy, and a host's personal auto insurer will often exclude peer-to-peer rental activity entirely, meaning the person renting out their car may discover the gap only after a claim.

Terms
Arbitration
US terms include arbitration provisions; opt-out mechanics not confirmed this pass.
Data sharing
Peer-to-peer means the counterparty is a private individual. Turo holds driver's licence images, driver's/motor-vehicle records and insurance information for guests (plus in-vehicle device data where a car is equipped), plus vehicle registration, insurance and payout banking details for hosts running a micro-business.
Fees and billing
Trip fees, young-driver fees and post-trip damage claims — the last being the dominant dispute category, adjudicated by the platform between two private parties.
