About this tool
Plan a ride-app data request and see how many GPS points your trip history holds and how easily home can be inferred.
This guide plans a ride-hailing data request for Uber, Ola or Rapido and converts your riding habits into the thing that actually matters: how many individual location points the operator holds about you. It counts pickup and drop coordinates plus GPS breadcrumbs along each route, sizes the archive, and lists the rules to quote when a request is ignored — the IT Rules 2021 Grievance Officer duty of acknowledgement within 24 hours and disposal within 15 days, and the 30-day access deadline under GDPR.

Turns an abstract 'trip history' into a concrete number of coordinates held about you.
Separates the Indian Grievance Officer timeline from the GDPR one-month rule.
Rates each part of the export so you can leave route traces out when the trip list is enough.
Use Uber's Privacy Center and choose the option to download your data. The archive is emailed as a time-limited link and typically covers trip history, receipts, ratings, communications and device information.
Indian operators generally handle access requests through in-app support and a published Grievance Officer rather than a self-service portal. Send the request from your registered phone number and email, and name the categories you want — trip history with coordinates, route traces, driver chat and safety records.
Under the IT Rules 2021, an intermediary's Grievance Officer must acknowledge a complaint within 24 hours and dispose of it within 15 days. The DPDP Act 2023 separately gives you a right to a summary of the personal data being processed, with timelines set in the rules made under the Act.
Repeated origins cluster very quickly: a regular late-night drop point is effectively a home address after only a few dozen rides, and saved places state it outright. Setting location permission to 'While Using', removing saved Home and Work entries, and deleting old emergency contacts all reduce what is held. This page is informational and not legal advice.
