Note: EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data is recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data or information (e.g., name,
gender, age, and crash location) is recorded (see limitations
regarding 911 Assist and Traffic, Directions and Information privacy
below). However, 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 such
special equipment, can read the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada
do not access event data recorder information without obtaining
consent, unless pursuant to court order or where required by law
enforcement, other government authorities or other third parties
acting with lawful authority. Other parties may seek to access the
information independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of
Canada.

Note: Including to the extent that any law pertaining to Event
Data Recorders applies to SYNC® or its features, please note the
following: Once 911 Assist (if equipped) is enabled (set ON), 911
Assist may, through any paired and connected cell phone, disclose
to emergency services that the vehicle has been in a crash
involving the deployment of an airbag or, in certain vehicles, the
activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates
to 911 Assist may also be capable of being used to electronically
or verbally provide to 911 operators the vehicle location (such as
latitude and longitude), and/or other details about the vehicle or
crash or personal information about the occupants to assist 911
operators to provide the most appropriate emergency services.
If you do not want to disclose this information, do not activate
the 911 Assist feature. See your SYNC® chapter for more
information.
