You are agreeing to have your device ID and location data shared with advertising networks.

“We share data - including advertising or device identifier, hashed email address, approximate location, current trip or order information, and ad interaction data - with these intermediaries”

What that means: Your movement and device identity are visible to multiple external advertising companies.

Uber shares detailed tracking data, including device IDs and location, with third-party ad intermediaries like Google and Criteo.

You are agreeing to indefinite data retention for your account and trip history.

“We retain your data: Account... Life of account; Trip/Order... The sooner of life of account or 7 years”

What that means: Uber holds your personal history indefinitely until you choose to delete your account.

Account information and trip history are kept indefinitely as long as the account exists, rather than for a fixed short period.

You are agreeing to provide biometric facial scans if required for verification.

“biometric data that allows you to be identified based on your physical or biological characteristics. For example, biometric data is generated when we use facial verification technology”

What that means: Sensitive biometric traits, specifically your facial features, are stored for security checks.

Uber collects facial verification selfies and government IDs for age or identity verification purposes.

You are agreeing to follow extra terms set by loyalty partners.

“Loyalty program partners that provide points or rewards on eligible rides and Uber Eats orders according to their respective terms.”

What that means: Your reward points are subject to external rules that might restrict how you redeem them.

Participating in loyalty programs subjects you to the additional terms of partner programs.

You are agreeing that separate policies apply to sister brand services.

“except when you use Uber Freight, TrendyolGo App/website or Careem Rides”

What that means: Different privacy notices exist for sister brands like Careem and TrendyolGo.

The scope notes related brands but excludes some. However, liability and data practices apply across the main product ecosystem.

You are agreeing to allow data collection from minors using family or teen accounts.

“We collect your date of birth and/or age to verify your eligibility to use age-restricted products or services, such as Uber for teens”

What that means: Uber is permitted to collect data from users who may be under 13 if enrolled in a teen program.

The notice explicitly mentions collecting data from teenagers through specific teen account programs.
