Gig platforms like Uber, Bolt, Deliveroo collect large amounts of data from you to monitor your work. This can include information about your trips, earnings, ratings, locations, driving behaviour, app use and more. Companies use this data to decide whether and how much work you get, how much you earn and whether you are subject to disciplinary action.

 

You have a legal right to receive a copy of this data from platforms. Companies must also explain why they collect this data, who they share it with, and the logic behind any automated decisions they make about you. At Worker Info Exchange, we submit these data requests (Subject Access and Data Portability Requests) on your behalf. We collect this data to support you and other workers to exercise your rights and challenge unfair decisions. 

 

When you make a data request with us, or share data with us directly, we may use this data in aggregate form with research partners for the purposes of data analysis. Our goal is to better understand the quality of work offered to workers so we can advocate for better and fairer treatment. If you have any questions about how we handle your data, please see the privacy policy or contact us at office@workerinfoexchange.org
