As part of our ongoing commitment to the safety of our employees and other persons, we use vehicle tracking and recording system into our fleet of vehicles. The device records journey data to provide us with information about your driver behavior, speed, journey duration and road usage.
|
||
|
||
The system will include external facing and internal (in-cab) cameras. The external camera will record road activity. The in-cab camera will capture images of the driver, and, depending on the vehicle and placement, any passengers in the vehicle (external and internal (in-cab) camera recordings collectively referred to as “recording(s)”). Please note that the system and recordings also may capture in-vehicle audio from the driver and any other person in range of the microphone.
|
||
|
||
The system records _all driver_ actions as you operate the vehicle. This includes, but is not limited to, vehicle speed at a given point of time, whether the driver is wearing a seatbelt, acceleration, braking, cornering, and impact.
|
||
|
||
The system does not collect, use, store, obtain, capture, or disclose biometric information or identifiers, but may do so in the future to detect distracted driving behaviors. If this information is collected it will be retained for no longer than one year from last use by the distracted driving detection.
|
||
|
||
A key component of the system is an ongoing GPS tracker, which tracks your location continuously. Please note that the system will record and associate an image (internal and external) and GPS location with each driver event that it records (e.g., your speed going around a corner, GPS position of that corner, and photo image external and internal around that corner).
|
||
|
||
The recording begins as soon as the ignition is switched on, and data will be stored on a hard drive. The hard drive stores about 60 hours of video footage, and the footage is overwritten continuously in a loop. The recording (audio, visual, and GPS) will continue for ten minutes after the ignition is switched off.
|
||
|
||
The camera system is not ‘live’ streamed. Footage can be remotely accessed when triggered by a harsh event (e.g., harsh braking, harsh acceleration, fast cornering or an impact). Alternatively, a fleet manager may request a video clip for a specific vehicle at a specific time.
|
||
|
||
As you drive, the system is equipped with a driver assistance mode, which will provide audio tips. For example, if you are speeding, you may hear a recording telling you to slow down. The main purpose of installing the system and recording is to promote driver safety. We also may use the information obtained through the system to protect us and others. We may periodically review the footage to evaluate habits, identify unsafe behavior, learn driving patterns, identify training needs, and to take other measures as we deem appropriate to promote the safety of our work force and the public.
|
||
|
||
All components of the camera system are company property; any interference or tampering with company equipment will not be tolerated and may lead to disciplinary action where appropriate. AUS may use information learned from in-cab audio and video cameras, external video cameras and GPS tracking for disciplinary purposes. AUS may also share information learned from in-cab audio and video cameras, external video cameras and GPS tracking with customers and clients in AUS’s sole discretion.
|

|

Please note that this notice is a supplement to the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) notice provided to you regarding AUS’s data collection a copy of which is available at [my.aus.com](http://my.aus.com/). If you have any questions, please contact your manager.
