Notice about data
recorded by the Event
Data Recorder and
vehicle control modules
Event Data Recorder
This vehicle is equipped wi th an Event Data Re
corde r (E DR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
reco rd, in ce rtain c rash o r ne ar cras h-like sit ua
tions, such as an a irbag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle , data that will assis t in understand
ing how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data re lated to veh icle dy
namics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this
vehicle is designed to record such data as:
- How vario us systems in you r vehicle were oper
at ing;
- Whether or not the driver and passenger safety
gi belts were buckled/fastened; ......
~ - How fa r (if at all) the driver was depressing the
N ~ acce le rato r and/o r bra ke peda l; and,
0 LL 00
Intellig ent Technology
- How fast the vehicle was traveling.
T hese data can help p rovide a bette r understand
i ng of the circumst ances in w hich cras hes and in
ju ries occu r. NOTE: EDR data ar e recorded by your
vehicle on ly if a non -trivial crash s ituation occurs;
no data are reco rded by the ED R under norma l
driv ing cond itions and no persona l data (e .g .,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are re
corded. However, other parties, such as law en
forcement, could comb ine the EDR data with the
type of personally identify ing data rout inely ac
quired d uring a c rash investigation .
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equ ip
ment is required, and access to the vehicle or the
E DR is needed . In addition to the ve hicle manu
factu rer, other part ies, such as law e nfo rcement,
t h at have the special equipment, can rea d the in
f o rmat io n if they have a ccess to the vehicle or the
ED R.
Some sta te laws restrict the retrieval o r down
l oad ing of data sto red by ED Rs ins talled in a veh i
cl e for the exp ress p urpose of re triev ing da ta af
ter an acci dent or crash event without the own
er 's consent .
Audi will not a ccess the EDR and/or sim ila r data
o r g ive it to o thers -
- unless the veh icle owne r (or lessee if the vehi
cle has been leased) ag rees; o r
- upon the official request by the police; or
- upon the order of a court of law or a govern-
ment agency; or
- for the defense of a lawsuit through the jud ic ia l
discovery process.
-Aud i may a lso use the data fo r research abo ut
veh icle operation and safety perfo rmance or
prov ide the data to a third party for research
purposes witho ut ide ntify ing the specific veh i
cle or i nfo rmat ion about the ident ity of its own
