Today we are releasing Uber’s first-ever Transparency Report. It shows the scope of information that we provided to U.S. law enforcement agencies as well as state and local regulators in the second half of 2015.

At Uber, we work day in and day out to provide a great experience for drivers and riders in cities all over the world. But we know there will always be times when you need to get in contact: a purse left in a car; an abusive passenger; a bug in the app. And when you do need to get in touch — whether you're a driver or a rider — our goal is to make it as quick and painless as possible. That's why we're doubling down on our in-app support technology so that when you need to get in touch, it's as quick and easy as getting a ride.

Modern-day mothers are not easy to keep up with; from weekend errands to weekday meetings, moms are always on the go, and at Uber we are proud to help them get around safely, conveniently, and affordably. This Mother's Day, we would like to say, for always making it home in time for dinner, for picking up us from school, for making us share our ETA with you so you know we made it safely, for working hard and never giving up, for making us who we are today, 'Thanks Mom'

It happens to the best of us - a meeting runs late, you get stuck in traffic, or your flight gets delayed, and before you know it you're making calls and sending messages to let people know you're behind schedule. Luckily there is an Uber feature that allows you to let your friends and family know you're safely on your way, with just a tap of a button.
