Medium severity
Share ๐• Share in Share

What it is

Uber provides drivers and delivery people with rights to access, correct, delete, and receive a portable copy of their personal data, accessible through the Uber Driver app's Privacy Settings or Uber's online privacy request portal. These rights vary by jurisdiction.

Why it matters

Knowing and exercising your data rights allows you to see what Uber holds about you, correct inaccuracies that could affect your platform standing, and delete data you no longer want Uber to retain.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

Consumer impact

Uber collects highly sensitive data from drivers and delivery people including continuous GPS location (even in background), facial images, government ID documents, vehicle telematics, and financial account details, and shares this data with insurers, background check providers, law enforcement, and research partners. Drivers have limited ability to restrict data collection tied to core platform functionality, meaning much of this data collection is a condition of using the platform. You can submit a data access, deletion, or portability request through the Privacy Settings section of the Uber Driver app or at Uber's dedicated privacy portal.

What you can do

โš ๏ธ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Export Your Data
    Open the Uber Driver app, navigate to Account, then Privacy Settings, and select Data Requests to submit a request for a copy of your personal data. Uber must respond within 45 days (US) or one month (EU).
  • Delete Your Data
    Open the Uber Driver app, navigate to Account, then Privacy Settings, and select Data Requests to submit a deletion request. Note that some data may be retained for legal compliance purposes.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC enforces consumer data rights under FTC Act Section 5 where companies fail to honor stated privacy policies or data deletion commitments.
