This provision establishes the framework through which drivers can exercise data rights, and the non-discrimination commitment is a specific CCPA/CPRA requirement; the operational effectiveness of these rights depends on the adequacy of Uber's request handling procedures and response timelines, which are subject to regulatory audit.
This provision establishes that drivers in qualifying jurisdictions may submit requests to access, correct, delete, or port their personal data, and may object to certain processing, with requests to be submitted via the Uber app or privacy.uber.com; the non-discrimination commitment means platform access and pay cannot be conditioned on waiving these rights.
How other platforms handle this
You may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information twice per 12-month period.
When you exercise any of your applicable legal rights to access, amend, or delete your personal information, we may request additional information from you for the purpose of confirming your identity.
where the EU GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we will respond within one calendar month of receiving a verifiable request, and where your request is complex...we may extend that period by up to a further two months.

"Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights with respect to your personal data. These include the right to access, correct, delete, or transfer your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. In some regions, you may have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal data, or to opt out of targeted advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.Excerpt from Uber's Privacy Notice (Drivers and Delivery People)
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision engages GDPR Articles 15-22 (data subject rights), CCPA/CPRA Sections 1798.100-1798.135 (consumer rights including sensitive personal information), UK GDPR equivalent rights provisions, Brazil LGPD Articles 17-22, and equivalent rights frameworks in Canada (PIPEDA/provincial laws), Mexico (LFPDPPP), and other jurisdictions listed in regional supplements. Enforcement authorities include EU supervisory authorities, the California Privacy Protection Agency, UK ICO, and national DPAs in other jurisdictions. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The breadth of data categories collected (biometric, location, government ID, telematics, communications) means that data subject access requests will be operationally complex and must include all categories. Response timeline compliance (30 days under GDPR, 45 days under CCPA with one 45-day extension) requires documented request handling workflows. The CPRA's sensitive personal information opt-out right applies to multiple data categories Uber collects. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA (30-day response deadline, supervisory authority complaint rights), California (45-day response with extension, CPPA enforcement), UK (ICO complaint pathway), Brazil (LGPD rights with ANPD oversight), Illinois (BIPA-specific rights regarding biometric data collection and destruction). 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Uber's ability to fulfill deletion and portability requests depends on its third-party vendors' ability to delete or return driver data. Data processing agreements should include deletion and portability cooperation obligations from all subprocessors. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should verify that request handling workflows are documented, tested, and capable of meeting applicable response deadlines for each jurisdiction. Identity verification procedures for rights requests should be proportionate and not create unreasonable barriers. The sensitive personal information opt-out (for location, biometric, and government ID data) under CPRA requires a clearly accessible opt-out mechanism, the availability of which should be audited.
