Information for the user
These data will provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances of the accident.
In order to read the EDR data it is necessary
to access (if legally permitted to do so) the
vehicle's ODB (“On-Board-Diagnose”) inter-
face while the vehicle is switched on.
Information for the
user
Data from the driving assist systems are also
recorded. This includes data such as wheth-
er the systems were inactive or active and if
such action had an impact on the vehicle’s
dynamic behaviour, changing its path in the
aforementioned situations, accelerating or
decelerating the vehicle.
CUPRA will not have access to EDR data un-
less the owner (or, in “Leasing” cases, the
lessee or hirer) gives their consent. There
may be exceptions to this, depending on le-
gal or contractual provisions.
Information for the user
Information stored by the
control units
Depending on vehicle equipment, this in-
cludes data from systems such as:
Due to legal requirements in safety-related
products, CUPRA may use the EDR data for
field research and in order to improve vehicle
system quality. Any data used for the purpo-
ses of research will be treated anonymously
(in other words, no reference will be made to
the vehicle, their owner or the lessee/hirer).

The EDR’s function is to record data in the

Other important informa-
tion
The EDR data are only recorded in specific
accident situations. No data are recorded in
normal driving conditions.
The EDR records, over a reduced time range
(normally 10 seconds or less), dynamic driv-
ing data and data from the restraint systems,
such as:
Environmental compatibility
No audio or video data inside or around the
vehicle are recorded. Under no circumstan-
ces are personal data such as name, age, or
gender recorded. Nevertheless, third parties
(such as criminal proceedings authorities)
may relate the contents of the EDR data to
other data sources and create a personal
reference in the context of an accident in-
vestigation.
Environmental protection is a top priority in
the design, choice of materials and manu-
facture of your new CUPRA.
