Recording data

As part of Polestar's safety and quality assur-

ance, certain information about the vehicle's

operation, functionality and incidents are recor-

ded in the car.

This vehicle is equipped with an "Event Data

Recorder" (EDR). Its primary purpose is to regis-

ter and record data related to traffic accidents or

collision-like situations, such as times when the

airbag deploys or the vehicle strikes an obstacle

in the road. The data is recorded in order to

increase understanding of how vehicle systems

work in these types of situations. The EDR is

designed to record data related to vehicle

dynamics and safety systems for a short time,

usually 30 seconds or less.

The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record

data related to the following in the event of traf-

fic accidents or collision-like situations:

• How the various systems in the car worked

• Whether the driver and passenger seatbelts

were fastened/tensioned

• The driver's use of the accelerator or brake

pedal

• The travel speed of the vehicle

This can help us understand the circumstances

in which traffic accidents, injuries and damage

occur. The EDR only records data when a non-

trivial collision situation occurs. The EDR does

not record any data during normal driving condi-

tions. Similarly, the system never registers who

is driving the vehicle or the geographic location

of the accident or near-miss situation. However,

other parties, such as the police, could use the

recorded data in combination with the type of

personally identifiable information routinely col-

lected after a traffic accident. Special equipment

and access to either the vehicle or the EDR is

required to be able to interpret the registered

data.

In addition to the EDR, the car is equipped with a

number of computers designed to continually

check and monitor the function of the car. They

can record data during normal driving condi-

tions, but in particular, register faults affecting

the vehicle's operation and functionality, or

upon activation of the vehicle's active driver

support function.

Some of the recorded data is required to enable

service and maintenance technicians to diag-

nose and remedy any faults that occurred in the

vehicle. The registered information is also nee-

ded to enable Polestar to satisfy legal require-

ments laid out in laws and by government

authorities. Information registered in the vehicle

is stored in its computer until the vehicle is serv-

iced or repaired.

In addition to the above, the registered informa-

tion can be used in aggregate form for research

and product development with the aim of con-

tinuously improving the safety and quality of

Polestar cars.

Polestar will not contribute to the above-descri-

bed information being disclosed to third parties

without the vehicle owner's consent. To comply

with national legislation and regulations, Pole-

star may be forced to disclose information of

this nature to the police or other authorities who

may assert a legal right to access such. Special

technical equipment which Polestar and work-

shops that have entered into agreements with

Polestar have access to is required to be able to

read and interpret the recorded data. Polestar is

responsible for ensuring that the information,

which is transferred to Polestar during servicing

and maintenance, is securely stored and man-

aged and that its management complies with

relevant legal requirements. Contact Polestar

Support for further information.
