How location powers matching
Location Data Policy
Location data is central to route matching, pickup coordination, safety, city analytics, and route optimization. This page explains the intended principles.
When location is used
Location may be used while searching, posting, applying, matching, chatting during a confirmed ride, and completing a trip. Background use should be limited and permission-based.
Privacy principles
Exact location should be shared only when necessary for confirmed ride coordination. Public route listings can use approximate zones or controlled visibility.
User choices
Users should be able to disable location permission, manually enter pickup points, and control how visible their route is to others.
