Higher = more protective of you, the user/customer — a deliberately user-protective lens, not a universal “good vs bad” score. Computed algorithmically from Lyft’s cited governance stances; no dimension we haven’t confidently read is ever counted against the score. Free, reproducible, and never purchasable.

Key Governance Provisions
Prohibition on Discrimination Based on Protected Class

The clause creates a contractual prohibition on discriminatory or harassing conduct toward any person, covering a broad range of protected characteristics.

Privacy Policy Data Collection Scope

The clause establishes that Lyft's data collection extends beyond what users actively submit, reaching device-level information and third-party sources, broadening the scope of data Lyft holds.

Driver Independent Contractor Status

The clause contractually forecloses employment status, which determines eligibility for employment protections, benefits, and legal remedies under labor law.

Lyft May Terminate Agreement or Deactivate Account

The clause authorizes Lyft to cut off access immediately upon a user's loss of eligibility, without a cure period or advance notice.

Exclusion of Consequential and Indirect Damages

The clause eliminates entire categories of damages users might otherwise seek to recover, significantly limiting the monetary remedies available against Lyft.
