Recording And Privacy
Data processing
All processing of personal information
by the emergency call function complies
with the framework for protection
of personal information established
by Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) and
Directive 2002/58/EC of the European
Parliament and the Council, and in
particular, seeks to protect the vital
interests of the data subject, in
accordance with article 6.1, paragraph d)
of Regulation 2016/679.
The processing of personal information
is strictly limited to the requirements of
the emergency call function used with the
European emergency call number.
The emergency call function is only
able to collect and process the following
data relating to the vehicle: chassis
number, type (passenger vehicle or light
commercial vehicle), fuel type or power
source, three most recent locations and
direction of travel, number of passengers
and a timestamped log file recording
technical data related to the system's
operation.
The recipients of the processed data
are the emergency call handling centres
designated by the relevant national
authorities in the territory in which they
are located, enabling priority routing
and handling of calls to the emergency
number.
Data storage
Data contained in the system’s memory
is not accessible from outside the system
until a call is made. The system is
not traceable and is not continuously
monitored in its normal operation mode.
The data in the system's internal memory
is automatically and continuously erased.
Only the vehicle’s three most recent
locations, necessary for the normal
functioning of the system, are stored.
When an emergency call is triggered, the
data log is stored for no more than 13
hours.
Access to data
You have the right to access the
data and, if necessary, submit a
request to rectify, erase or restrict the
processing of any personal information
not processed in accordance with
the provisions of Regulation 2016/679
(GDPR). Third parties to which data has
been communicated shall be notified of
any rectification, erasure or restriction
carried out in accordance with the
aforementioned directive, unless doing
so would be impossible or require a
disproportionate effort.
You also have the right to lodge
a complaint with the relevant data
protection authority.

Event Data Recorders
Electronic control units are installed in
your vehicle. Control units process data
that is received by vehicle sensors,
for example, or which they generate
themselves or exchange amongst
themselves. Some control units are
necessary for the safe functioning of your
vehicle, others assist you while you drive
(driver assistance systems), while others
provide comfort or infotainment functions.
The following contains general
information about data processing in
