BYD Seal 2024 - Data Collection and Processing

Data Collection and
Processing
Data Collection and
Processing
●
This section provides you with
some important information on how
personal data is collected and
processed when you use a BYD vehicle.
●
For a more detailed overview on data
processing, data protection and data
subject rights, please read the current
version of the privacy policy for the
vehicle available at the infotainment
system ( System Settings → More →
Privacy Policy).
●
This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recording (EDR) system.
EDR mainly records data in the
event of a crash or near-crash
(for example, airbag deployment or
hitting on a roadside obstacle) to
help comprehend the vehicle system
operation, such as:
●
Vehicle velocity
●
Tire pressure condition
●
Adaptive cruise control (ACC) system
status
●
Whether the seat belt is fastened
●
The vehicle records EDR data only
when there is a crash or when a
near-crash event reaches a certain
extent. The EDR does not record any
data during the normal driving of the
vehicle.
●
The data recorded by the EDR
provides an understanding of the
state of the vehicle's safety-related
systems when an accident occurs so
that relevant parties can analyze the
accident.
●
The EDR data needs to be accessed
and read by special equipment. BYD
will not disclose your personal data
to third parties unless this is legally
permissible or you have consented
to it. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, third-party agencies
with professional equipment (such as
government agencies) can also read
the EDR data if they have access
to the vehicle EDR and equipment
(for example, they can read the data
of SRS control unit to clarify the
accident).
Vehicle Data Processing
●
Data is collected when the vehicle
is used, such as data collected or
transmitted by vehicle sensors or
control units, which is necessary for
the safe functioning of your vehicle.
●
In some cases, the data is used
to support driving (driver assistance
systems) or to enable a specific
comfort or infotainment function.
●
Personal data that is collected and
processed mainly include in-vehicle
data, remote-services-related data,
and other data, as further specified
below.
In-vehicle data
Operation data
●
When the vehicle is used, various
vehicle status data (e.g., speed,
battery level, and braking system) or
environment (e.g., distance sensors
and temperature) data are collected
and processed.
●
This data is not usually stored,
but there are control units, sensors
or other components installed in
the vehicle that record such data,
for example, to record maintenance
requirements, error messages, or other
information.
