recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine
the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information
if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
GM will not access these data or share it with others except: with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle
is leased, with the consent of the lessee; in response to an official
request by police or similar
government office; as part of GM's defense of litigation through the
discovery process; or, as required by
law. Data that GM collects or receives may also be used for GM research
needs or may be made available to
others for research purposes, where a need is shown and the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle owner.
