Summary

This is Uber's privacy policy specifically for drivers and delivery people, explaining what personal data Uber collects about you while you work on the platform — including your precise GPS location, driving behavior, identity documents, and in some cases audio and video recordings from cameras in your vehicle. The most important thing to know is that Uber tracks your exact location continuously while the app is open, including between trips, and may collect biometric data and telematics (speed, braking, phone use while driving) that can affect your ability to stay on the platform. You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by visiting Uber's privacy portal at privacy.uber.com.

Technical Summary

This document is Uber's Privacy Notice for Drivers and Delivery People, governing the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data by Uber Technologies, Inc. and its affiliates for individuals who use the Uber platform in a driver or courier capacity, with legal bases including contractual necessity, legitimate interests, legal obligations, and consent depending on jurisdiction. The notice creates significant obligations including Uber's collection of precise real-time location data, biometric-adjacent identity verification data, background check information, telematics data (speed, braking, acceleration), and audio/video recordings from in-trip cameras, while granting Uber broad latitude to share this data with third-party partners, insurance providers, and government authorities. Notably, Uber collects continuous location data even when the app is running in the background between trips, and retains audio/video recordings from in-cabin recording devices — provisions that go beyond standard gig-economy data practices and create heightened surveillance risk for workers. The document engages GDPR (Articles 6, 9, and 13), CCPA/CPRA (§1798.100 et seq.), Illinois BIPA, and various state biometric privacy laws, with enforcement exposure from the FTC, state attorneys general, and EU/UK data protection authorities including the Irish DPC (Uber's EU lead supervisory authority). Material compliance considerations include the adequacy of consent mechanisms for biometric and sensitive data collection, cross-border data transfer frameworks (SCCs, UK IDTA), and the legal classification of drivers as independent contractors versus employees across jurisdictions, which affects applicable data subject rights.
