Data category

Data types

a. Location data. If you request a ride, we track your driver’s location during your trip and link that data to your account. This allows us to display where you are on your trip.

We also determine your approximate location and can determine your precise location if you allow us to do so through the settings on your phone. If you do, we will collect your precise location from the time you request a ride or order until the ride is finished or your order is delivered. We also collect such data when you have the Uber app open on your phone’s screen.

You can use Uber without letting us collect your precise location. However, it may be less convenient for you, including because you will have to type your location into your phone instead of allowing us to detect it for you.

C. Core automated processes

Uber uses automated processes to enable certain parts of our products and services, including functions essential for service delivery and user safety such as matching, pricing and fraud prevention and detection.

Uber relies on automated processes to enable essential parts of our services, including matching (pairing users requesting and providing transportation and/or delivery services), pricing (calculating the amount owed for such services) and fraud detection and prevention. These processes allow Uber to provide a seamless, and safe, experience to millions of users globally every day.

This section describes how automated matching, pricing, and fraud prevention and detection processes work, including how they impact your Uber experience and the personal and non-personal data used to enable these processes.

You may contact Uber [here](https://help.uber.com/riders/article/submit-a-privacy-inquiry?nodeId=489292a2-27ce-42f5-9a47-d4dd017559fd) if you have questions or concerns regarding these processes.

Uber uses algorithms to efficiently match you with drivers or delivery people. This helps us minimize wait times for you and enable efficiency for drivers and delivery people.

The matching process is triggered when you request transportation or deliveries. Our algorithms then evaluate various factors to determine the best match, including your location, requested destination, the proximity and availability of drivers or delivery people, traffic conditions, and historical data (including, in some markets, whether you and a driver have previously reported having negative experiences with each other).

The trip or delivery request is then communicated to the driver/delivery person matched through this process. Once a trip or order is accepted, we send confirmation of the match to you and the driver/delivery person.

We are constantly refining our matching process to provide the best experience to all users on our platform and may consider different factors depending on the location where you use Uber.

Additional information on Uber’s matching process is available [here](https://www.uber.com/us/en/marketplace/matching/).

When you request transportation or a delivery, Uber uses algorithms to determine the price you pay based on a variety of factors, including:

Your price may also vary depending on tolls or surcharges incurred, tips, discounts, promotions and subscriptions, and route-based adjustments.

The price may also vary depending on surge pricing, which automatically goes into effect when there are more Riders in a given area than available drivers. This encourages more drivers to serve the busy area over time and shifts Rider demand, to maintain reliability and restore balance.

Additional information on Uber’s pricing process is available [here](https://www.uber.com/us/en/marketplace/pricing/).

Uber uses algorithms to prevent and detect fraud against Uber or our users. This includes efforts to monitor for account takeovers, suspicious user behaviors, and unauthorized access attempts, including by third-party aggregators.

These tools look for patterns that may indicate fraudulent behavior, such as those that vary significantly from typical user behavior. To do this, Uber performs real-time monitoring of information collected from or generated by users, including location data, payment information, and Uber usage. We also examine historical data and compare it against real-time data to help detect suspicious behavior.

Uber may limit your access to its services, or require that you undertake a particular action such as verifying your identity before allowing such access, if it detects potential fraudulent activity.

You may contact Uber customer support [here](https://help.uber.com/riders) if you have questions or concerns about these processes.

Ad and marketing partners and providers, including ad and marketing publishers (such as social media platforms), ad networks and advertisers, third-party data providers, ad technology vendors, measurement and analytics providers, and other service providers. Uber uses these vendors to reach or better understand current and potential users of Uber services or of our advertising partners, and measure and improve ad effectiveness. For example, we share audience lists with ad and marketing publishers in which users are identified by limited data points (e.g., mobile advertising ID, hashed email, name) and grouped based on inferred interests and characteristics. Uber instructs ad and marketing publishers to target these groups, or audiences, with ads.

Uber will not sell or share your phone number with any third party to send you marketing or promotional text messages.

F. Data retention and deletion

Uber retains your data for as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Users may request account deletion through the Uber apps and websites.

Uber retains your data for as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Those periods vary depending on the type of data, and the purposes for which we collect and maintain it.

For example, we retain your data:

The following table lists Uber’s retention practices with respect to categories of data described above. Uber may retain data for longer, or shorter, than the periods described below where required by law.

Data Category

Retention Period

Account

Life of account

Communications

The sooner of life of account or 7 years

Demographic

Life of account

1 year for government IDs

3 years for user-submitted selfies

Location Data

The sooner of life of account or 7 years

Where Uber does not need to retain your data in order for Uber to provide its services, or for purposes of our tax, insurance, legal or regulatory requirements, we will delete your data once no longer necessary for the purposes for which we collected it. Such periods vary depending on the type of data, and the purposes for which we collected it. For example, we generally delete certain information that we use to display personalized marketing and advertising to you after approximately one year, if not sooner.

You may request that we delete your account through the Privacy menus in the Uber app, or through Uber’s website (Riders and Order Recipients [here](https://help.uber.com/h/24010fe7-7a67-4ee5-9938-c734000b144a); Guest Users [here](https://help.uber.com/riders/article/submit-a-privacy-inquiry-without-an-uber-account?nodeId=eb90a9bb-8286-4c10-ae28-fb641b889bac)).

Following an account deletion request, we delete your account and data, except as necessary for purposes of safety, security, fraud prevention or compliance with legal requirements, or because of issues relating to your account (such as an outstanding credit or an unresolved claim or dispute). For example, if you are banned from Uber’s services because of serious fraudulent or unsafe behavior, Uber will retain your data after an account deletion request to prevent you from re-obtaining access to Uber’s platform.

The data that we retain in such situations varies depending on the purpose for the retention. For example, if we retain your data due to fraudulent behavior, we will retain the data relating to such behavior, and the data that we need to prevent you from further accessing Uber’s platform, which may include your account information, identity verification information, transaction data, and user content and communications data. Similarly, if you are involved in an incident while using Uber that may lead to litigation or an insurance claim, we will retain the data that is potentially relevant to such litigation or insurance claim.

We generally delete data within 90 days of an account deletion request, except where retention is necessary for the above reasons.

You may also contact Uber's Data Protection Officer at [uber.com/privacy-dpo](https://uber.com/global/en/privacy-dpo/), or by mail to Uber B.V. (Burgerweeshuispad 301, 1076 HR Amsterdam, the Netherlands) regarding issues relating to Uber's processing of your personal data and your data protection rights.

B. Our legal bases for using your data

Depending on where you use our services, and our purpose for using your data, Uber relies on the following legal bases for processing your data:

Data protection laws in some countries and areas, including the EEA, UK, Switzerland, Brazil, Türkiye and Nigeria, only allow Uber to use your data when certain circumstances defined under those laws apply. This is called having a “legal basis” for using your data. The applicability of these legal bases may depend on your location. The chart below indicates the legal bases that Uber has under those laws when they do apply, and it uses your data for the purposes described in this notice.

Legal basis

Description

Data uses

Contract

When you set up your Uber account and/or request a ride or delivery from Uber, we are entering into a contract defined by our [terms and conditions](https://www.uber.com/legal/en/document/?name=general-terms-of-use&country=united-states&lang=en) to provide you those services.

This legal basis applies when we must use your data in order to provide the services you request and meet our responsibilities under that contract.

Consent

This legal basis applies when we notify you of how we will collect and use your data, and you voluntarily agree to that use of your data (in some cases, by enabling that collection and use through a device or Uber setting).

Where we rely on consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, in which case we will cease that collection and use of your data.

Legitimate interests

This legal basis applies when Uber has a legitimate interest for using your data (such as for purposes of safety, security, and fraud prevention and detection), its processing of data is necessary for that purpose, and the benefit of such purpose is not outweighed by risks to your privacy (such as because you would not expect Uber’s use of your data, or because it would prevent you from exercising your rights).

Legal obligation

This legal basis applies when we are required to use your data to comply with the law.

C. Legal framework for data transfers

Uber operates, and processes user data, globally. We comply with applicable legal frameworks relating to the transfer of data.

Uber operates, and processes user data, globally. This may result in processing of your personal data in countries, including the United States, whose data protection laws may differ from those where you live or are located.

Uber is committed to protecting your personal data regardless of where you are located or where, or by whom, your personal data is processed. This includes implementing global measures to protect users’ data, including:

When we transfer user data from the EEA, UK and Switzerland, we do so on the basis of the necessity to fulfill our agreements with you, consent, adequacy decisions regarding the country of transfer (available [here](https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/adequacy-decisions_en), [here](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32021D1772) or [here](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32000D0518)), and transfer mechanisms such as the [Standard Contractual Clauses](https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_en) adopted by the European Commission (and their approved equivalents for the UK and Switzerland), and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (“EU-US DPF”), the UK Extension to the EU-US DPF, and the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework (“Swiss-US DPF”), as set forth by the US Department of Commerce. Such data remains subject to the GDPR or equivalents after such transfer. Users may contact Uber regarding the above, or to request copies of applicable Standard Contractual Clauses, [here](https://help.uber.com/riders/article/submit-a-privacy-inquiry?nodeId=489292a2-27ce-42f5-9a47-d4dd017559fd).

UTI has certified to the United States Department of Commerce that it adheres to (1) the EU-US Data Privacy Framework Principles regarding the processing of personal data received from EEA member countries in reliance on the EU-US DPF, and from the UK (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension to the EU-US DPF; and (2) the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework Principles regarding the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-US DPF. In the event of a conflict between this notice and the Principles mentioned above, the Principles shall govern.
