Introduction.
At DoorDash, we connect people with the best of their neighborhoods by enabling businesses to meet consumers’ needs of ease and convenience, and, in turn, generate new ways for people to earn, work, and live.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes how DoorDash, Inc. and its affiliates (“DoorDash”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) collect, process, retain, and disclose your Personal Information when providing its services, including, but not limited to, its consumer platforms, websites, and mobile applications, any website, platform or application that contains or includes a link to this Policy, and channels of communication (collectively the “Services”).
This Policy does not apply to Dashers or other contractors, or to the personnel of Merchants and Vendors, which are subject to separate privacy policies.
What Personal Information does DoorDash collect or process?
Personal Information is any information that DoorDash can reasonably use to identify you, whether that information identifies you on its own or when combined with other information. Anonymous information and information that has been de-identified such that it cannot identify you is not Personal Information.
We may process the following categories of Personal Information in connection with our Services:
- Contact Information, including name, address (such as home address, work address, or other delivery address), email address(es), phone number(s), and other contact information provided to us.
- Account and Profile Information, including username and credentials, privacy settings and notification preferences, pictures, and other information you add to your DoorDash profile, employer name if you are using our Services through our DoorDash for Business (formerly DoorDash for Work) product, any subscription information such as DashPass membership, and identifiers that we may link to an account and information received from third-party platforms or authentication services that are linked to our Services.
- Identification Documentation and Signature for Age-Restricted Products, including driver’s license or other government issued identification documents, which we may process in limited circumstances such as an order for an age-restricted product (such as alcohol) or other products that require age and/or identity verification and for legal and regulatory compliance.
- Communications with DoorDash, Dashers and Merchants, including the content of in-app messages with Dashers, communications with Merchants through or in-connection with our Services (including, without limitation, through our and third-party platforms), SMS/text messages, chats, phone calls, and emails with us related to our Services, customer support inquiries and outreach, the date and time of communications, method or channel used, call recordings (if applicable), the outcomes, actions, and/or resolutions from the communications, and other information.
- Content you create or share, including reviews about experiences on our platform, such as ratings of a Dasher who delivers an order or about Merchants you order from, or photos you upload.
- Payment Information, including credit card or debit card information and information about the payment methods and services (such as PayPal or Venmo) used to make purchases on or through our Services. Payment information is primarily stored and processed by our third-party service providers, including our payment processors; however, we may store and process limited payment-related information such as the last four digits of a payment card, name of the financial institution, and payment service.
- Activity and Transactions on or with our Services, including information about the items and products ordered, order history, items placed in the cart, special instructions included in an order (e.g., dietary preferences, delivery preferences), transaction amounts, promotional codes and discounts used and received, the Merchants ordered from, gift cards ordered, the features and functionality used or interacted with, searches and actions on our Services (including through using session replay technology), loyalty account information for Merchants, responses to our surveys or other market research activities, participation in sweepstakes, promotions, or contests, photos and/or videos that you may send or provide to us related to your activity and transactions on or with our Services, and use of DashPass, gifts, our referral program or other special programs (including information about those you have sent or received gifts to or from or referred).

You may use our Services without enabling the collection of precise location information from your device; however, this may impact your experience including the accuracy of deliveries and/or the availability of certain content, features and functionality (e.g., you may have to manually enter your delivery address). If you have not allowed us to receive your precise location, we can only determine your approximate location. To opt-out of location sharing after turning it on, follow the steps below:

You can turn off DoorDash’s ability to collect and use precise location at any time in your app settings. We do not use any sensitive Personal Information for purposes other than as reasonably expected by an average consumer to provide our Services, for legal, security and safety purposes, and without the purpose of inferring characteristics about an individual. For more information on our processing of government issued IDs and data to verify age and identity and the authenticity of a submitted government issued ID, please see the FAQs available at How is my age verified for alcohol orders?

In addition, we are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our Services or those on third-party websites.

You can view certain country-specific information by selecting the Addendum link below.
Information We Obtain
We may obtain consumer personal information (such as name, contact details and payment information) in connection with various activities such as (i) use of the UPS websites and applications, (ii) shipping activities, including delivery and pick-up of shipments, (iii) requests to track shipments or answer questions, (iv) events in which we participate, (v) promotions and other offers, and (vi) calls placed or web-based chats with customer service and accounting centers which may be recorded.
The types of personal information we may obtain include:
- Individual and business contact information (such as name, company name, physical address, email address and telephone or fax number)
- Shipping information (such as (i) shipping-related contact details like the sender’s, and consignee’s and/or neighbor’s (for UPS My Choice’s “leave with neighbor” feature) name, physical address, email address and telephone number, (ii) signature for proof of delivery, (iii) UPS account number, and (iv) information given to us that helps us access locations to which we provide service) and information provided to us regarding the content of certain shipments, but only to the extent an identifiable person can be linked to such content.

- Names, email addresses and telephone numbers of others to whom we are asked to send information
- Information provided in response to surveys
- Username, password and other credentials used to access UPS products and services
- Social media handles, content and other data posted on our official social media pages or elsewhere on the Internet (such as other public locations), and information (such as email address and other information you allow to be shared) we obtain through UPS-related social media apps, tools, widgets and plug-ins (including third-party login services such as “Login with Facebook”)
- The geographic location of your mobile device if you use certain features of our apps
- Payment information (including payment card details or online payment services number and invoicing address) and financial information (such as bank account numbers)
- Tax identification number in circumstances in which you request products or services for which this information is required, or in connection with certain promotions or prize draws
- Other personal information that may be provided to us to obtain a UPS product or service
We also receive consumer personal information from our customers in order to perform services. We may receive personal information from third parties, including public databases, social media platforms, or third party partners such as analytics or marketing providers.
When we pick up or deliver a shipment or provide other services, we may obtain physical location data. This includes, for example, data identifying the actual location of a physical address using information such as GPS data, geocodes, latitude and longitude information, and images of the various locations.
In addition, when you visit our websites, use our chatbot, use our apps, or interact with UPS-related tools, widgets or plug-ins, we may collect certain information by automated means, such as cookies and web beacons. The information we collect in this manner includes IP address, unique device identifier, browser characteristics, device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, information on actions taken, and dates and times of activity. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages or apps to web servers and may be used to transmit information back to a web server. Through these automated collection methods, we obtain and store “clickstream” data to tell us usage patterns. We may link certain data elements we have collected through automated means, such as your browser information, with other information we have obtained about you to let us know, for example, whether you have opened an email we sent to you. We also use third-party analytics tools that collect information about visitor traffic on our websites or apps. Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies or how to restrict or disable certain types of cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to use all the features of our websites or apps. Both we and others (such as our advertising networks) may collect personal information about our visitors’ online activities, over time and across third-party websites, when using our websites and apps.
We collect session analytics information, including browsing behavior, click patterns, keystrokes, and pages visited, when you visit our websites and applications. We and our third-party service provider may also collect, record, and analyze interactions with the chat feature of our website and application. This information helps us understand our customers’ online activities, determine usage patterns, provide customer service and support, and improve and impair website functionality. This information is also helpful to our experience teams so they can design better experiences for you.
The providers of third-party apps, tools, widgets and plug-ins on our websites and apps, such as Facebook “Like” button, also may use automated means to collect information regarding your interactions with these features. This information is subject to the privacy policies or notices of these providers.

In addition, we use information collected online through cookies, web beacons and other automated means for purposes such as (i) customizing our users’ visits to our websites and apps, (ii) delivering content (including advertising) tailored to our users’ interests and the manner in which our users browse our websites and apps, (iii) improving website functionality and user experience, (iv) debugging, identifying, and repairing errors that impair the intended functionality of our websites, (v) providing customer service and support, and (vi) managing our business. We may supplement data we collect through automated means with information about your location (such as your postcode) to provide you with content that may be of interest to you. We also use this information to help diagnose technical and service problems, administer our websites and apps, identify users of our websites and apps, and gather demographic information about our users. We use clickstream data to determine usage patterns and how we may tailor our websites and apps to better meet the needs of our users. Our websites and apps are not designed to respond to “do not track” requests from browsers.
Interest-Based Advertising
On our websites and apps, we may collect information about your online activities for use in providing you with advertising about products and services tailored to your individual interests. This section of our Privacy Notice provides details and explains how to exercise your choices.
You may see certain ads on other websites because we participate in advertising networks. Ad networks allow us to target our messaging to users through demographic, interest-based and contextual means. These networks track your online activities over time by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of cookies, web server logs and web beacons. The networks use this information to show you advertisements that may be tailored to your individual interests. The information our ad networks may collect includes information about your visits to websites that participate in the relevant advertising networks, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our websites and on third-party websites that participate in the ad networks. This process also helps us track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. To learn how to opt out of this ad network interest-based advertising, select here.
Information We Share
We do not sell or otherwise share personal information about you, except as described in this Privacy Notice. To perform our pick-up and delivery services, we share shipping information with third parties such as shippers, consignees, third party payers and recipients. We also share personal information with third parties who perform services on our behalf based on our instructions, including third-party software providers that support our web-based chats. These third parties are not authorized by us to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements.
We also may share the personal information we obtain with our affiliates, franchisees, resellers and joint marketing partners. These entities, which collectively are referred to here as the “UPS Business Partners”, may use the information for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice. We may share physical location data with our UPS Business Partners and other third parties to, for example, enhance location-based services and develop accurate and up-to-date maps. In addition, except as described below, unless you object, we may share other personal information with third parties who are not UPS Business Partners for those parties’ own purposes, such as to offer products or services that may interest you.
Information collected through third-party apps, tools, widgets and plug-ins (such as information obtained through third-party login services or relating to your use of a Facebook “Like” button) is collected directly by the providers of these features. This information is subject to the privacy policies of the providers of the features, and UPS is not responsible for those providers’ information practices.
Many of our customers outsource all or a part of their supply chains to us. Through our forwarding and logistics business units, we manage these supply chains, focusing on supply chain optimization, freight forwarding and international trade and brokerage services for our customers worldwide (including a broad range of transportation solutions such as air, ocean and ground freight). We also provide information technology systems and distribution facilities adapted to the unique supply chains of specific industries such as health care, technology and consumer/retail businesses. In the course of providing forwarding and logistics services, we may obtain, use and disclose personal information about our customers’ customers. In these circumstances, we process the information based on the agreement with our customer.
We also may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law, regulation or legal process (such as a court order or subpoena), (ii) in response to requests by government agencies, such as law enforcement authorities, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity. We reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (including in the event of a reorganization, dissolution or liquidation).
Access and Correction
Subject to applicable law, (i) you may obtain a copy of certain personal information we maintain about you or update or correct inaccuracies in that information through your ups.com account on UPS.com or (ii) you may have the right to obtain access to personal information we maintain about you by contacting us as indicated in the “How To Contact Us” section of this Privacy Notice. To help protect your privacy and maintain security, we will take steps to verify your identity and/or may ask you to provide other details before granting you access to the information. In addition, if you believe that personal information we maintain about you is inaccurate, subject to applicable law, you may have the right to request that we correct or amend the information by contacting us as indicated below.
Data Transfers
We may transfer the personal information we collect about you to countries other than the country in which the information originally was collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information.
When we transfer your personal information to other countries, we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Notice and in accordance with applicable law. We use contractual protections for the transfer of personal information among various jurisdictions (including, for example, the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses).
Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal information through our websites or apps from persons under the age of 13. If you believe anyone under age 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us as indicated in the “How to Contact Us” section of this Privacy Notice and we will work to delete it.
How We Protect Personal Information
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information you provide against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. Although we take steps to limit access to our facilities and vehicles to authorized individuals, information that is located on the outside of a package or letter may be visible to others.

Information We Obtain
We process names, email addresses and telephone numbers of others to whom we are asked to send information on the assumption that the person who provided the information obtained it in accordance with applicable law. If this assumption is incorrect, please do not ask us to send information to third parties on your behalf.
We may need certain of your information in order to provide services, such as street addresses to deliver packages, or to use our website or our apps, such as your IP address. In addition, we may be required by law to collect certain information, such as whether a package contains hazardous materials. Where such information is so required, we may be unable to provide you with our services unless you provide us with this information.
In accordance with applicable law, we may obtain your consent separately before collecting information by automated means using cookies or similar devices. To learn more about the cookies and similar devices we use, please see our Cookies Policy.
How We Use The Information We Obtain
The legal bases for which we collect, use, transfer or disclose your personal information include (i) the performance of the contract we have with you, (ii) marketing, improvement of our services and other legitimate business interests, (iii) compliance with a legal obligation, and (iv) the protection of yours and others vital interests. The corresponding purposes for which we process your personal information are systematically included in the “How We Use the Information We Obtain” section in the Privacy Notice above.
We may process your personal information based on your consent, where required by law. If we request your consent, we will inform you of the intended purposes for which your information will be processed. Please note that if you choose to withdraw your consent, you may not be able to participate in or benefit from our programs, services and initiatives for which you provided consent. We also may use the information we obtain about you in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.
Data Retention

Our retention policies reflect local statute of limitation periods and national statutory obligations of UPS.
International Data Transfers
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, we may transfer your personal information to countries that have not been found by the European Commission to provide adequate protection, including the United States. For any such transfers, UPS takes necessary contractual measures to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection (including, for example, standard contractual clauses). For further information about UPS’s international data transfer practices, and to consult the said contractual measures, please contact us using the contact details in the “How to Contact Us” section above.

You may exercise these rights free of charge unless the request is unfounded, excessive, or otherwise unreasonable, for instance because it is repetitive. In some situations, we may refuse to act or may impose limitations on your rights, as permitted by law. Before UPS is able to provide you with any information or correct any inaccuracies, we may ask you to verify your identity and/or provide other details to help us respond to your request.
