Uber discloses that in some jurisdictions and where permitted by law, drivers may use in-cabin recording devices (dashcams or similar) and that Uber or its partners may access audio and video recordings from such devices for purposes including safety investigations, insurance claims, and resolving disputes.
Audio and video recordings of passengers and drivers inside vehicles implicate wiretapping and electronic surveillance laws in many states, particularly two-party consent states. Drivers may face legal exposure if they record passengers without proper disclosure.
Uber collects extensive personal data from drivers and delivery people, including real-time location data continuously while the app is active, telematics data measuring driving behavior, government-issued ID and background check information, and potentially audio and video recordings from in-cabin devices. This data is shared with insurance companies, background check providers, law enforcement on request, and third-party business partners, and can influence a driver's ability to remain on the platform. You can access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data by submitting a request through Uber's privacy portal at privacy.uber.com.
