What it is

You have the right to see, correct, delete, or export your personal data by submitting a request through the Uber app or privacy.uber.com, though some data may be kept for legal reasons even if you request deletion.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time via privacy.uber.com, but Uber may retain data tied to safety incidents, legal claims, or regulatory obligations even after a deletion request — meaning sensitive data may persist longer than you expect.

What you can do

⚠️ 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
    Visit privacy.uber.com to submit a data access, correction, or deletion request. Sign in with your Uber account credentials and select the type of request. Uber is required to respond within 30 days (GDPR) or 45 days (CCPA).
  • Delete Your Data
    Open the Uber Driver app, go to Account, then Privacy, then Manage your data, and select the deletion option. You can also submit a deletion request at privacy.uber.com if you prefer the web portal.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

Knowing and exercising your data rights is your primary tool for controlling what Uber does with your personal information — but broad carve-outs for 'legal compliance' and 'legitimate interests' may limit the practical scope of deletion rights.

View original clause language
Drivers and delivery people can exercise data rights including the right to access personal data held about them, the right to request correction of inaccurate data, the right to request deletion of their data (subject to legal retention obligations), the right to object to processing, and the right to data portability. These rights can be exercised through the Uber app, through privacy.uber.com, or by contacting Uber's privacy team. Rights may be limited where processing is necessary for legal compliance or legitimate interests.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Data subject rights are mandated by GDPR Arts. 15 (access), 16 (rectification), 17 (erasure), 18 (restriction), 20 (portability), and 21 (objection); UK GDPR equivalent provisions; CCPA/CPRA §§1798.100 (access), 1798.105 (deletion), 1798.130 (response timeframes — 45 days extendable by 45 days); Brazil LGPD Art. 18; and comparable rights under other national laws. GDPR Art. 12 requires free, timely (one month, extendable to three) responses. CCPA imposes 12-month lookback for access requests.
