The Uber experience was built with safety in mind. Through incident prevention tools and technology that keeps you connected, we’re dedicated to helping you move safely and focus on what matters most.
Every trip is tracked through the GPS and Uber has a dedicated team specially trained to support users on every issue.
Uber is constantly investing in new resources to improve safety, from sharing a trip with trusted contacts to a direct channel in the app to call the authorities in case of an emergency.
Uber developed new standards and a community guidelines to provide an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome.
Every partner driver must undergo a background check, in accordance with the law, run by a specialized company before they can start driving in the platform. With ‘Real-Time Identification’, the app frequently asks drivers to share a selfie with Uber, which we match against their on-file identification to prevent account sharing.
Safety features are designed into the app. So you get home after a night out. So you can tell your loved ones where you are. And so you can call authorities for help, if something unexpected happens.*
If a user wants to pay for his trips only in cash, he needs to type his National ID number (CPF) and date of birth to get access to the app. This information is matched with the federal government data to confirm the user's ID.
Drivers are periodically asked to take a selfie, which we match against their on-file identification to help ensure that the right driver is behind the wheel.
Uber has adopted a technology to identify risks based on real-time data of millions of trips taken through the app. The tool can block trips considered potentially risky, unless the user provides additional identification information.
Messages sent thought the app that may be considered offensive or threaten the integrity of a person will be submitted to a process where the original account can be permanently disabling.
We use technology to help keep your phone number private, so neither drivers nor riders will see each other’s numbers when communicating through the Uber app.
Access Uber’s safety features all in one place in the app whenever you’re riding with us.
All Uber rides are tracked by GPS from start to finish so there’s a record of your trip if something happens.
Set up your Trusted Contacts and create reminders to share your trip status with friends and family in real time.
If you are in an emergency situation, you can call the police directly from the app. Your location and trip details will appear in the app so you can inform the authorities.
Using sensors and GPS data, RideCheck can help detect if a trip goes unusually off-course or a possible crash has occurred. If we notice such events, we’ll check on you and offer tools to get help.
The app verifies the presence of cyclists before open the car door. Also, if you are on a trip that ends near a bike lane, the app sends you an alert at the end of the route.
Uber customer associates trained in incident response are available around the clock.
Uber protects you on every trip with Chubb's insurance. The coverage includes medical expenses in case of an accident or, in more severe cases, permanent disability coverage, among other coverages that ensure your protection.
