permanently connected to the mobile telephone
network; rather, it remains connected only as
long as the emergency call is active.
Data types and their recipients
The eCall statutory emergency call system may
only collect and process the following data:
▷ The vehicle identification number for rapidly
identifying the vehicle, for example the model.
▷ Vehicle type, for example car.
▷ Type of vehicle drive, for example petrol or
diesel, for assessing the risks involved in a
rescue, for example the risk of fire caused by
fuel.
▷ The vehicle's position at the time of the acci‐
dent, its last three locations and the driving
direction in order to locate the vehicle faster
when on very complex route sections, for ex‐
ample.
▷ Log file for automatic system activation and
its time stamp.
▷ Control information, which tells rescue serv‐
ices whether the emergency call was trig‐
gered automatically or manually, for example.
▷ A time stamp for determining the time of the
accident in order to optimise rescue services
deployment plans.
▷ The driving direction for establishing which
side of the carriageway is concerned, for ex‐
ample.
The authorities of the state in whose territory the
eCall system emergency call is made determine
the emergency call coordination centres that will
receive and process the statutory emergency
call.
Data processing configuration
The eCall statutory emergency call system en‐
sures that the data contained in the system
memory cannot be accessed outside the system
before an emergency call is triggered.
The data collected for the eCall statutory emer‐
gency call system is only saved in the vehicle
and sent to the rescue coordination centre when
an emergency call is triggered.
The eCall statutory emergency call system en‐
sures that it cannot be traced and there is no
permanent tracking during normal operation.
The eCall statutory emergency call system en‐
sures that the data in the internal system mem‐
ory is deleted automatically and continuously.
Data relating to the vehicle's location is overwrit‐
ten continuously in the internal system memory
so the last three vehicle locations needed for the
system to function normally are always available
and no more.
The activity data log of the eCall statutory emer‐
gency call system is retained for no longer than
is necessary to handle the eCall emergency call
and under no circumstances for any longer than
13 hours after the eCall emergency call was trig‐
gered.
Rights of individuals affected by
data processing
The individual affected by data processing,
for example the vehicle owner, has the right to
access the data and can request that data con‐
cerning him or her that is not processed in ac‐
cordance with the statutory regulations be cor‐
rected, deleted or blocked as applicable. Every
time data is corrected, deleted or blocked in line
with these regulations, the third parties to whom
the data was transmitted must be informed, pro‐
vided that this can be done at a reasonable cost.
The individual affected by data processing has
the right to complain to the relevant data protec‐
tion body if he or she believes that his or her
rights have been violated by having that personal
data processed.
For matters relating to access rights, contact a
Service Partner of the manufacturer or another
qualified Service Partner or a specialist work‐
shop.
